Welcome to
A Quiet Divorce
What is this podcast about, you must be thinking?
Let’s start at the beginning.
I met and married my dream guy when I turned 31 and I believed that I had finally found the guy for me. We had a whirlwind romance for less than 3 months and I moved to his city to start a life together. Nine years later, I learned of my husband’s lies and the ultimate betrayal and before I could even think of how my world got turned upside down, he of kicked me out of my own house.
I was devastated and lost but I knew I had make a choice. I could have begged him to let me stay and work on our marriage or I could stand up on my own. I choose my love for myself and my kids over my love for him. Guess what path I chose?
What does a woman do when the very man that vowed to protect, love and cherish her; is the same person that lied to her for 9 years, stole her money and did it all without a single apology.
My Story
Act 1
Beginning
My divorce was essentially very quiet from the beginning to the very end. I never got the closure that I believe everyone needs to move on and I attribute this to the many different dynamics of Asian Culture. Despite our modern times, I still find those practices and ideologies of Asian Culture to be very much prevalent in our lives today. I learned this throughout my entire marriage but managed to work around our differences. When I learned of my husband’s betrayal, I had no choice but to choose divorce.
Act 2
Middle
It has been 5 years now since my divorce in 2017 and I have learned so much about life, love and most of all myself. I have shed my fair share of tears and I was very sad for a long time. In between those sad days were better days and my 2 boys definitely helped me stay focused. I learned that I am more than who I thought I was, I am more than a wife or a mother but I am a woman that can be anything she sets her mind to be. Today, I am a photographer, a baker and apparently a pretty good storyteller.
Act 2
End
I would love for all my listeners to join this community of strong women that may or may not have lost their way, gain a new perspective and the confidence to love again. Let’s start a chat room “Talk It Out” and discuss our thoughts about each episode, share in your experiences and learn and heal together.
We lose so much of ourselves when we go through heart break but you can too heal. Follow my journey to see how I lost in love, rebuilt my life back and found love again.
