#15. What No One Tells You About Divorce Grief with Margaret Dennis

Last Friday, my daughter stood on stage, beaming with pride at her Junior Kindergarten graduation.

She was so happy. So proud.One of those sweet, fleeting milestones you want to hold onto forever.

And for just a couple of seconds… a wave of sadness came over me. Her father wasn’t there. Again.

He chose to step away from their lives completely. And while I’ve done a lot of healing over the years, there are still moments—quiet, unexpected moments—where grief taps me on the shoulder.

It doesn’t shout. It doesn’t demand. It just lingers, quietly, in the background of a joyful moment.

This is divorce grief.

It’s complicated. It’s layered. And it often catches us off guard, even long after the papers are signed.

That’s why I sat down with Margaret Dennis, a holistic grief coach and multiple grief survivor, to talk about the kind of grief no one prepares us for.

🎧 In this episode, we talk about:

• The difference between grief after death and grief after divorce

• How to know if you’re still stuck in grief (even years later)

• How grief shows up — whether you left or were left

• And how to start healing… not by forcing, but by allowing

Whether your marriage ended last week or five years ago — if you’ve ever thought “Why am I still sad?” or “Shouldn’t I be over this by now?” — this episode is for you.
