Good evening, everybody. How are you all doing? Got a great show plan for you.

Ah, I hope you getting through the week. Well, we got your back later on the show. We're going to be

talking about signs that your spouse might want to divorce. Again, for those that might be single

or in a relationship that is feeling divorce proof, still lots to learn. Because again, as always,

talking about general mental health tips and tricks and just ways keep the relationships in balance. Lots of divorces happening. Culturally, though,

that's been something that's kind of been on the rise. Depending on what stat you look at,

it falls anywhere between, ready, put on your seatbelts and helmets to hear this one,

anywhere between, well, about half or more, 50 or 60% of

marriages are getting divorced, highest rate of singledom. It's because of the way we're running our

relationships. But again, remember, divorce is not always a bad thing. Often it's a good thing.

It's good to recognize when a relationship's gone as far as it can. It's not always a sign

of things being bad. Sometimes it's, hey, that was a great ride. We went as far as it can. It's not always a sign of things being bad. Sometimes it's, hey, that was a great

ride. We went as far as we could. We did all we could. We've grown in different directions and we are

lovingly and understandably separating. I think what's sadder than divorce, because again,

whenever someone tells me they're going through a breakup or divorce, I always say, tell me the meaning

of that. Because sometimes it's a celebration, like, oh, that's really great. Let's move on to the next phase of your life. But I think what's sadder than divorce is people staying in miserable relationships because

they think that somehow that's better and it's not better for you. And we forget that it's

really bad for those around us and our children. We're teaching them really bad lessons of what

love looks like and what relationships are like and mental health. That's not a great lesson. And kids need healthy, available caregivers, not, you know, violent or toxic relationships.

It does impact them. You are showing up differently to them if you're walking around that

going on in your psyche and in your nervous system and your body. So we'll be talking about that

late in the show, but I really wanted to open up. I haven't talked about COVID in a very long time.
