| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Divorce Survival Guide podcast, where we have open and honest conversations about co-parenting, separation, divorce, and the hardest question of all, should you stay or should you go. |
| 0:17.8 | I'm Kate Anthony, your divorce survival guide, and I'm here to help you navigate some of |
| 0:23.3 | the roughest waters you've ever swum in and answer some of your toughest questions. I've been to |
| 0:29.1 | hell and back, and now it's my mission in life to help you get to the other side of this process |
| 0:35.1 | with your sanity and your heart intact. |
| 0:44.2 | Hey, everyone. Welcome back. So I just wanted to make a quick little plug for the fact that |
| 0:52.8 | grit and grace is still going on. We have room for some new |
| 0:57.8 | members. So if you are in a position where you are looking for support and you think that the |

| 1:59.4 | And I would love, love to see you there. It's on my website, kateanthony.com, and I would love, love, love to see you there if you feel |
