Divorce can be a portal to joy — that's the promise author Betsy Cornwall offers, drawn from her own journey of leaving an abusive marriage, facing homelessness, and rebuilding a life on Ireland's wild coast, crowdfunded knitting factory and all. Her advice: find your people, trust the instinct that something's off, and know real joy is waiting on the other side.

In this inspiring episode of Divorce Happens, Olivia Howell chats with Melissa Rogers, professional matchmaker, dating coach, and vibrant voice of post-divorce empowerment. Melissa shares her story of moving through divorce and stepping into a version of herself that’s wiser, freer, and more self-assured.
