How Did You Survive the Holiday Season and What Did You Learn About Yourself? || Divorce Devil Podcast #245 || David and Rachel

Welcome to Divorce Devil Podcast Ep. 245! 🎙️ It’s the first show of 2026, and David & Rachel are back (even on a holiday!) to bring honesty, humor, and hope to those navigating life after divorce—especially if you’re over 40. First, let’s congrats to Rachel on her new status!

This episode dives deep into the realities of post-divorce holidays: from managing blended families and juggling complicated schedules, to finding new traditions and giving yourself grace. Rachel shares her engagement news (yes, there’s hope for love after divorce! 💍), and both hosts open up about the challenges—and unexpected joys—of holidays with adult kids, teens, and bonus family members.

We talk about handling family drama, co-parenting chaos, emotional triggers, setting boundaries, and the importance of self-care (plus, a hilarious story about red wine on white carpet 🍷😅). Whether you did the bare minimum or tried to make everything perfect, remember: you survived, and that’s enough!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, lonely, or just trying to make sense of your “new normal,” this episode is for you. We’re here to uplift, inspire, and remind you that you’re not alone.
