Most people think divorce is about court dates, paperwork, and legal battles — but the biggest changes are often the ones nobody talks about. In this episode of Sidebar Social, Dana and Jennifer discuss the emotional and practical realities of divorce beyond the courtroom: identity shifts, changing friendships, parenting alone, financial anxiety, holidays that feel different, dating after long marriages, and how children often adapt differently than parents expect. This honest conversation explores the human side of divorce, life transitions, and rebuilding after major change.
