The Silver Split: Navigating the Surge of Gray Divorce

Why are more couples over 65 calling it quits than ever before? In this episode, Melissa and Caroline dive into the "Gray Divorce" phenomenon—a modern shift in marital longevity. We explore the psychological drivers behind late-life separation, from the "empty nest" identity crisis to increased life expectancy and the pursuit of individual fulfillment in the third act of life. Join us as we discuss how to navigate the unique mental health challenges of divorcing in retirement and the therapeutic paths toward healing and reinvention. Hosted on Acast.
