Welcome to the Don’t Pick the Scab Podcast – the raw, unfiltered safe space for men over 40 (and anyone else who loves a little real talk during tough times)! Hosted by David, this episode dives into the emotional chaos, hard-won wisdom, and dark humor that comes with divorce recovery in midlife. 🎙️💥
If you're fresh off a breakup, knee-deep in divorce papers, or just feeling lost on the other side, you’re not alone. This episode is all about recognizing when you’re ready to heal, how to start the process, and why it’s NOT just about getting over your ex. It’s about rebuilding YOU – even if you never wanted to be in this situation! 🏗️
What You'll Hear in This Episode:
The Alpha & Omega of Divorce Recovery: When does healing really start? Is it before the ink is dry, or only after you admit your pain? David and Rachel debate denial, anger, and the messy timeline of moving on.
Co-Parenting Without Losing Your Mind: Real talk on how to stop fighting with your ex (even if you want to throw them under a bus) and focus on your kids instead. 👨👧👦
Ego, Friends Picking Sides, & The Devil on Your Shoulder: Stories about how your crew reacts to your split, why everyone has “their truth,” and how not to let your ego keep you stuck.
When is it time to stop listening to divorce podcasts? Spoiler: If we’re keeping you stuck, it’s time for a break and possibly seek professional help (but please come back when you’re ready!).
