Transitioning from a high lifestyle to a simpler one can be daunting, but ultimately rewarding. Entering a new relationship post-divorce comes with its own set of challenges. We offer insights into understanding the expectations we bring into new relationships, setting healthy boundaries, and learning from our new partners. Hear our thoughts on the tricky topic of choosing sides in a divorce and how to handle disappointment when friends and family don't meet our expectations. Further, we tackle the taboo of not staying in a marriage for the sake of the children.
