The Divorce Devil Podcast David M Webb

One of our favorite subjects… the X factor.   In our divorce recoveries we have both experienced different X factors.  We do agree that you have some sort of compass in order to start healing, and that X factor(s) are them.  What is yours??

It’s another fun Divorce Devil Podcast.  Our subject today is the interesting wins and fails in dating during divorce recovery.  So many things to cover here.  We feel we only scratched the surface.  Discussions of you are never really ready to date, phone a friend, there is always some baggage, Rachel swiped her thumbs raw and you need to go through the sh*t relationships.  Basically, Rachel and I agree that probably the first few times you get out there - it’s a sh*tshow.  So, please go into them with realistic expectations.  It turns out better that way.  And, in all seriousness, take care of you in the process.  Self-care is not overrated!

Interesting Points:

Special code with the bartender
Don’t talk about your divorce on your first dates
Go play pickleball
Watch out for the narcissist
Cut before you get cut
Red flag collector
Don’t get a project
You can’t fix people
Little divorce lies
Don’t date for marriage

We are almost done with the 10 part feeling better in your divorce recovery.  Today is day 9 and it’s all about owning your divorce story.  We feel you should not be ashamed of your divorced status and we provide tips not to.  Your divorce story becomes less important as time goes on.  

We also discuss how the perception of our own divorce stories has changed over time and how it has become less of a defining factor in our lives while stressing the importance of setting boundaries and giving 100% in relationships. We encourage listeners to write their own divorce stories and explore different versions of their experiences. Ultimately, you need to love and embrace your own story, no matter how it may have unfolded.
Important points:

Let them
Insanity
Anger eyes
No matter what your story is, love your story and love yourself
My friend is almost my twin
Roles vs boundaries
Divorce is a rebirth not a death
Make your happy
Learn the game
Born a poor black child
Be prepared
Kiss my lips bitch lips
Be healed
Communication and then some
Change the divorced box to healed

Day 8 people - are you learning from your past?  We feel that it is so important to do just that.  You need to reflect on what your marriage has taught you (good or bad), don’t let the past define you and on your journal prompt…. What do you need to leave behind?  What version of your past do you tell people?  We agree that letting things go, eventually, is less of a burden, self-care is most important, be selfish and take care of you, control is a large issue in divorce recovery and you might need shoes in order to go to school.  Take heed and go get your happy and continue to heal.

Discussions of:

Fake it to make it
Divorce taught Rachel to communicate better
Negative self-talk
kiss my grits!
Great or grape nuts
Serial dating
Take back your power
Insecurities, doubts and confidence
Milk takes on the taste of the cereal
Don’t fix it just listen
Do it on your own time
We are not a family anymore
Envy
