Summary

My friend Ashley Rankin (Registered Nurse) joins us to share her two year marriage that ended in divorce about two years ago. Ashley shares why she felt the marriage was the right decision in the beginning, the progression of how things started to change, and how it ended a few months before their second anniversary. Ashley shares the pain and trauma that resulted from both her marriage and divorce process. She also shares a few lessons she has learned on her road to healing in the two years since her divorce. If you are in a dark place and need someone who can give you tools to find hope and a way forward, please listen to Ashley's podcast. You can reach out to her with any questions, or if you need support, on facebook or Instagram (@ashley__rankin). Ashley is brave, courageous, and strong with a deep understanding of her relationship with her Heavenly Parents and the role the Savior and His Atonement play in grief, healing, and finding hope after hardship.
