Are you feeling totally burned out from your divorce? 😫 You’re not alone! In this episode of the Divorce Devil Podcast, David and Rachel get brutally real about “divorce burnout” – that overwhelming exhaustion, frustration, and “I can’t do this anymore!” feeling that hits so many people, especially over 40.

We dive into:

• Why divorce burnout is more than just stress (it’s an identity crisis, financial fatigue, and ALL the decision overwhelm)

• How to spot the signs you’re truly burned out (hint: snapping at friends, losing your sense of humor, or just wanting to disappear until Thanksgiving 🦃)

• Honest stories from our own journeys: Rachel’s COVID divorce, David’s burnout moments, and the realities no one warns you about

• Practical, SIMPLE steps to start healing – from celebrating small wins (yes, even showering counts! 🚿) to asking for help, setting boundaries, and finding moments of peace (or cookies 🍪)

• The real talk on losing old friends, dealing with kids’ feelings, and why your timeline for moving on is YOURS alone

If you’re tired of advice that doesn’t get it, or just need a laugh while you rebuild your life, this episode is for YOU. 💬

Welcome to the Don't Pick the Scab Podcast, where we get real about what it takes to heal, grow, and thrive after divorce—especially for people over 40. I’m David, your host with my cohost Rachel, , and in this episode, we dig deep into what it truly means to become the best version of yourself during and after divorce. 💔➡️💪

Divorce can feel like you’re carrying a backpack full of bricks—anger, guilt, and the loss of your old identity. Trust me, I’ve been there. In this candid conversation, we’re sharing honest stories, hard-earned lessons, and practical advice for men navigating the bumpy road of divorce recovery.

Here’s what you’ll discover in this episode:

• Why “being your best self” isn’t about perfection, but about daily progress—even if it just means getting out of bed and brushing your teeth.

• How to let go of anger and resentment so you can move forward (without throat-punching your ex or your kids!).

• The importance of setting boundaries, calling out toxic behavior, and learning to say “no” when you need to.

• Why finding your tribe and leaning on genuine friends is critical for healing—and how to tell who’s really there for you.

• The power of self-talk, journaling, and honest communication (even when it’s awkward or messy).

• Real talk about serial dating, mistakes we make, and why it’s okay not to get everything right on the first try.

• How to co-parent effectively for your kids’ sake, and why loving your children more than you hate your ex is the ultimate win.

• Why your health matters now more than ever—seriously, guys, go to the doctor! 🩺

• Tips for rediscovering old passions, trying new things, and building a life that’s truly yours again.

We joke, we get real, and we don’t sugarcoat the hard parts. Divorce is tough, but you are tougher. If you’re feeling lost, angry, or just plain exhausted, remember: you are not alone, and you can rebuild.
