Finding peace after divorce begins with understanding that it’s okay to feel what you feel. Healing takes time and there’s no need to rush it. The important thing is to start where you are then move forward one small step at a time.

In this episode with Dr. Oyebukola Oyederin, I sit down with a fellow high-achieving Christian woman to talk about the emotional weight of divorce, faith, and the myths about marriage and divorce many of us were taught in church.Together, we unpack what it means to be a “good woman” and how God’s grace meets us even when life doesn’t go as planned.
