Podcasts about dating after divorce

Margo and I have a long list of the things that we love about one another, but we're not going to pretend that there's a list of things that we don't like. In fact, her words are "the most unattractive thing that you do" to be exact! I had no idea that sitting accross from one another and exchanging things that we aren't necessarily a fan of was a relationship goal of mine, but here we are. Grateful that we've grown to the point where this can take place without insecurity or a desire to take personal jabs taking over. We spend most of our time celebrating one another and sharing the things that we love, so we had a little fun humbling one another for close to an hour!

Today's Dear DSO submission is from a neurodivergent man—he's got ADHD, a lot of anxiety, and not much dating experience. He feels like he's defective, like he'll never figure out how to talk to women or attract them. He sent in a long list of brutally honest questions:“How do I feel confident when women have all the power?”“How do I not look needy just by showing interest?”“Do normal guys really know what they're doing?”This one hit hard, and I think a lot of men—especially autistic or ADHD guys—are going to relate.In this video, I break down where these feelings of shame come from, why experience and repetition are more powerful than any pickup advice, and how to start small and work your way up. This isn't about fake confidence. This is about getting real, falling on your face, and standing back up.

Mr. K wrote in with a story that's, sadly, all too familiar. He blames himself for a relationship that was dysfunctional from day one. She showed no attraction. She weaponized sex. She even stopped showering to repel him — and kept a log of when he initiated.He thinks he's the problem.But here's the truth: Some relationships are doomed from the beginning. And some men — especially anxious or neurodivergent men — miss every red flag because they're too busy blaming themselves.In this Dear DSO episode, I walk through Mr. K's situation and what it reveals about codependence, attraction, and the importance of walking away when a woman shows you who she is. If you've ever wondered, “What did I do wrong?”… this one's for you.⚠️ Want to submit your own story? Go to https://deardso.com

Have you ever looked back at a relationship and thought, “What the hell was that?”You were loyal. Honest. Steady. She was chaos.This happens all the time to autistic men—diagnosed or not. They end up in emotionally volatile relationships with women who may have traits of borderline personality disorder. These women are intense, manipulative, unpredictable… and the autistic man, with his calming and consistent energy, is the perfect target.In this video, I explain why this dynamic happens, what signs to watch for, and how to protect yourself from getting trapped in a relationship that feels more like emotional warfare than love.▶️ Need support?

It was one of the hardest years I've lived through—personally and professionally. I felt misaligned with my values, burned out in my work, and disconnected from the joy and freedom I preach to others. But in the summer, I read The Big Leap, and something shifted. I started a year-long commitment to stepping into my Zone of Genius, facing my Upper Limit Problems head-on, and saying YES to what scared me most… and life hasn't been the same since. In this solo episode, I take you behind the scenes of my Big Leap year. I talk about dating again after a decade (gulp!), redefining fun, getting back on my bike (and maybe soon my rollerblades), losing 15 pounds not from restriction, but from celebrating myself differently. I share how I moved from wine on weekdays to novels on the beach, from overworking to letting my work flow from joy. I even caught myself starting arguments in my head—just to feed my old programming. The self-awareness has been wild...and so freeing. And yes, we talk business too. I had tantrums. I doubted. But I kept moving forward. I've reconnected with the why behind Journey Beyond Divorce, and am reimagining the how. I'm sharing what's lighting me up: podcasting, group programs, deep partnerships, and creating space for you to take your Big Leap too. This isn't just my story—it's an invitation for you to leap right alongside me.

He's doing the chores, paying the bills, helping with everything, hoping it will reignite intimacy… but it hasn't worked.We talk about perimenopause, the harsh biological and emotional shifts that happen in long-term marriages, and the hard truth: sometimes, no amount of chore-play will bring back the spark.

Things are not perfect, but there is no question that our commitment to doing the right thing has made all of the difference.

Topics covered: Why Laurie finally chose to write her memoir after decades in food media. What it's like to stop headlining other people's lives and start showing up in your own. Her path through addiction, shame, and sobriety—and how it shaped her. The emotional toll and moral complexity of writing honestly about people she's loved. The collapse of a marriage and the ripple effects of one deeply vulnerable moment. Infidelity, accountability, and what radical self-acceptance really looks like. Why “nice but boring” often hides deeper emotional safety—and how to spot a mature relationship. Dating in your 40s and beyond. What “playing the tape forward” teaches us about addiction, impulse, and the allure of red flags. Advice for people stuck in toxic attraction loops or mourning heartbreak they fear they'll never get over.

Pride takes down families. Simple as that. It is as deceptive as it is destructive. If we were to closely examine the issues related to marriage and divorce, as well as other relational conflicts, pride wouldn't be too hard to find. Unfortunately, we all deal with it to some degree. Humility, on the other hand, is what strengthens bonds and makes way for the wisdom that we need to overcome even the most significant relationship issues. 

In today's Dear DSO, I respond to a heartbreaking story from a 39-year-old Army Special Ops veteran who's been through the wringer—divorce, remarriage, infidelity, therapy, and now… his wife wants to separate again, “date,” and possibly reevaluate in six months.If you've ever felt like you're living in a constant loop of chaos in your relationship, especially after betrayal, this one will hit home. We unpack anxious attachment, gaslighting, guilt, PTSD, and how military culture compounds all of it.Join The HFM Brotherhood!

Send us a textDivorce hits men particularly hard, doubling their suicide risk while offering them fewer support resources than women typically receive. Dr. Eran Magen, Assistant Clinical Professor at Yale School of Medicine, draws from both professional expertise and personal experience to address this crisis through his work at DivorcingDads.org.The conversation explores why men struggle so profoundly after divorce - often isolating themselves rather than seeking support, feeling like failures, and facing challenging custody situations. Dr. Magen breaks down his comprehensive approach built on four essential pillars: navigating legal matters (especially custody arrangements), developing effective co-parenting strategies, strengthening practical parenting skills, and rebuilding a fulfilling personal life.We dive deep into the complexities of dating after divorce when children are involved. When should you start dating again? How do you introduce new partners to your children? What conversations should you have with kids of different ages? Dr. Magen offers thoughtful, practical guidance grounded in child development and relationship psychology.Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comic

No therapy. No gym. No time for herself. And definitely no connection with him as a man.Join The HFM Brotherhood!
