Are you feeling totally burned out from your divorce? 😫 You’re not alone! In this episode of the Divorce Devil Podcast, David and Rachel get brutally real about ā€œdivorce burnoutā€ – that overwhelming exhaustion, frustration, and ā€œI can’t do this anymore!ā€ feeling that hits so many people, especially over 40.

We dive into:

  • Why divorce burnout is more than just Stress (it’s an identity crisis, financial fatigue, and ALL the decision overwhelm)

  • How to spot the signs you’re truly burned out (hint: snapping at friends, losing your sense of humor, or just wanting to disappear until Thanksgiving 🦃)

  • Honest stories from our own journeys: Rachel’s COVID divorce, David’s burnout moments, and the realities no one warns you about

  • Practical, SIMPLE steps to start healing – from celebrating small wins (yes, even showering counts! 🚿) to asking for help, setting boundaries, and finding moments of peace (or cookies šŸŖ)

  • The real talk on losing old friends, dealing with kids’ feelings, and why your timeline for moving on is YOURS alone

If you’re tired of advice that doesn’t get it, or just need a laugh while you rebuild your life, this episode is for YOU. šŸ’¬

I really enjoy being a boomer. I started a divorce recovery podcast (The Divorce Devil Podcast) in 2016 and another one especially for the men in their divorce recovery (Don't Pick the Scab Podcast). Love doing boomer things - Pickleball, riding my mountain and road bikes, and hiking.
