Rich
Welcome to Divorce Ed. 101, or Divorc{ed} 101 as we like to call it. The host of this podcast, Rich, is currently going through a divorce. He is going to share his thoughts and experiences throughout his journey. Rich's hope is that he will help enable other couples going through the same thing to find some solace and some solidarity; and maybe provide a few laughs along the way. It's about life, legal processes, relationships, personal problems and everything else you can think of it. The podcast episodes are meant to be easily consumable. Really you can listen to them in any order you would like, so jump right in. Starting at the beginning would probably help with continuity and context but its dealers choice, folks! Unfortunately a lot of people experience the pain and heartache of divorce in their lifetimes and there are so many different emotions that come along with that, dealing with them can sometimes seem overwhelming. So lets laugh at the lamentations together. Listen along while I navigate the waters of post married life. Divorce can be brutal and devastating but it doesn't always have to be, however when it is, it pays to have some friends along the way. I cant promise you anything. The only thing I know for sure is that neither one of our lives will be the same, time for some new beginnings.
