Finding the Beauty in Betrayal: Maggie S...

DEAR MEDIA, ALIZA PRESSMAN
About this episode

Today author and poet Maggie Smith joins us in a vulnerable conversation about divorce and betrayal, and the journey of re-discovery after. We discuss the challenges and upheavals of divorce and how Maggie used this turbulent period to redefine her life, prioritize her well-being, and model resilience for her children. We also delve into the importance of community, self-compassion, and the ability to find beauty in the most unexpected places.
