A Man's Journey Through Divorce

Divorce tension will exist until forgiven. When it’s not forgiven, the tension turns into cycles of un-forgiveness that block one from moving beyond the divorce. In this episode, Steve talks about how to practice cycles of forgiveness so you can unleash from the stored hurt in divorce.

Your ex-spouse might be a “taker”. Their concern might be centered on how much money they can get, custodial time they can capture, or even how much joy they can take from your life. Their self-centeredness breeds frustration, resentment, bitterness, and even anger — all of which are anchors to moving on with your life. In this episode, I talk about how to move on from “the taker”.

Beyond the loss of a spouse, or the loss of your retirement, sits a miracle. A miracle that lies in the stripping away of the accumulations supporting an inauthentic life. In this episode, I explain how many divorcees were stuck living a life with pent-up intentions. The divorce merely awakens these intentions by shedding light on changes they truly want to make.

Divorce is unlike any other life transition. The loss of dreams and identities, that once were strong, guiding attachments, bring complex emotions that are hard to understand and release.

Your success with fully moving beyond divorce rests on your ability to accept the denied parts of yourself, or what psychologists call the shadow. In this episode, I speak to “aimless anger,” and dive into a recent event that caused anger to uncover part of my shadow-self I have been denying.

Is “not ever getting married again” the only thing you learned from your divorce? There is a deeper question, possibly one that resides around the question, “What was it all for?” In this episode, Steve continues on the theme of the Hero’s Journey and uses divorce as the “falling event” that opens up the call to adventure. He uses his own learning around dying to one’s definition of success as an example.

Your attention is a commodity. It's actually the most valuable commodity in my mind. It’s something that’s been up from grabs prior to your divorce and is certainly up for grabs during and after. In this episode, I share an exercise to help you stop the time thieves and bring your focus to what’s important now.

Anger is a natural expression to situations that harm our body, family, and property. It’s when we allow anger toward these situations to harm our character do we permit ourselves to experience even greater harm. In this episode, I share a Stoic tool for tackling anger by looking at the judgements we cast towards situations. It’s understanding these judgements that hold the key to tackling anger. I also explain how to diffuse unnecessary expressions and repressions of anger through the virtue of kindness.

Divorce presents a lot of “unwelcomes”. Yet, it also presents the opportunity to truly exam your life right now. In this episode, I speak to the trap of waiting on time as one sits with a grievance, and how to move from this exile towards the miracle lying within each grievance.

Divorce is an ending. But as with all endings, it is a new beginning. In this episode, I talk about why it’s important to start the new beginning with clear intentions for your life, and not let the new beginning be dictated by the past, or by some professional who may be in your life for just a short window of time.

Problems are teachers, not persecutors. Many see problems as the thing that’s breaking them. No, problems are what's teaching where you are arguing against the truth. They show where we are absent a tool to create change. In this episode, I share how to look at problems with curiosity so that you can be the creator around the problem.

As the main provider for your family, you willingly offered a lifestyle. At no point did you ever think one would suggest they have a “right” to maintain that standard of living. The obligation you shouldered pre-divorce tied more to the dreams you wanted for your united family. Now that the separation is here, there is a shift in this obligation. Instead of the welcoming the free will to provide, you find yourself stuck as you lose this free-will and shoulder entitlement. In this episode, I share how to reverse the paralyzing negativity of this new form of obligation.

Your divorce outcome is what you decide it is. It's as simple as that, or as hard as that. The outcome is not the swirling uncertainty, and the layers of toxic attacks - unless you decide those are pieces of the outcome you want. No, the outcome is what you decide it is - irrespective of the swirling forces outside of you. Once you decide to believe the drama cannot take any parts of what your "really own", then you are making a decision that you cannot lose, and are allowing full possibility - full prosperity - to open to your future.

The fabric of an old life can cause you to hold onto what once was, and prevent you from allowing your new life to unfold. In this process, you can get trapped in thinking about all that you lost, instead of grasping what is here now. In this episode, I share an analogy from David Brooks' book, "The Second Mountain" to help with letting go of the fabric of your old life.

We approach divorce with a construct of the way things "should be". It's this construct that drives much of one's behavior and reactions. In this episode, Steve talks about personal divorce constructs and how they can block best outcomes.
