The Divorce Part 1: Wife

In this episode of the Kizmet Podcast, host Kiz Harvey sits down with her guest Serena to explore the often-overlooked complexities of grey divorce. Together, they discuss the emotional journey of resilience, healing, and self-discovery that follows the breakdown of long-term relationships.

Serena opens up about her experience, describing her married life as resembling the façade of a "Stepford Wife." On the outside, everything appeared perfect—happy family, smooth social life—but behind closed doors, things were slowly falling apart. Secret bank accounts, unspoken issues, and an underlying sense of growing disconnect made her realise that her marriage was crumbling, even though she hadn’t fully seen it at the time.

Through candid and heartfelt conversations, Kiz and Serena shed light on how embracing vulnerability, facing painful truths, and starting over can lead to a new sense of freedom and self-purpose. This episode highlights the often transformative and empowering experience of rediscovering oneself after divorce. If you're navigating similar struggles, or just curious about the journey of emotional healing, this conversation is a must-listen.
