S1 Ep 6: A Personal Conversation with Dru Vincent, Straight Spouse


Listen Later

In today's episode, host Kristin Kalbli interviews Dru Vincent, a straight spouse whose wife of 18 years abruptly asked for a divorce. After being blindsided by the revelation of his wife's sexuality, and their subsequent divorce, Dru went from being curled in a ball on his brother's couch, to slowly rebuilding his life. Dru talks about picking up the pieces through financial devastation, depression, thoughts of suicide, and grief.
