Why Some Divorced Dads Stay in the Valley — And Others Start to Climb

from Divorced Dads of America: The Rebuild · host Anthony Thompson, Founder of Divorced Dads of America

You're not in crisis. You're not falling apart. But you're not climbing either. There's a version of life after divorce that looks okay from the outside but feels stuck from the inside. Stable but not growing. Surviving but not building. In the valley — but not on the mountain. In this episode Anthony breaks down the difference between the divorced dads who stay in the valley and the ones who start to climb — and what's actually keeping capable men stuck at the base of the mountain longer than they should be. — The two types of divorced dads after the crisis ends— Why the valley is the most dangerous place — because it feels like enough— The guilt, loneliness, and missing structure keeping men from climbing— Philippians 3:13 — why Paul's instruction is a strategy not a suggestion— The Climb: a private community for divorced dads ready to build Join The Climb ($98 Monthly)--> inside the free Ascent community: https://bit.ly/3Z83e97Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/divorceddadsofamerica/
