Since April is Alcohol Abuse Awareness month, Susan visits with Dr. Elizabeth Cohen, The Divorce Doctor, about the risks, challenges and hardship that alcohol use disorder can wreak in the lives of individuals and families. It's all about raising awareness, starting a conversation and letting you know you are not alone if you are struggling with substance abuse issues.
Our favorite therapist, Dr. Elizabeth Cohen a/k/a The Divorce Doctor, returns to speak with Susan about Alcohol Use Disorder, Alcoholism and more in this deeply personal episode. Both Dr. Elizabeth and Susan have family histories of alcohol abuse and each share their own experience and insights to help you get curious about the role alcohol plays in your life and what to consider if you find it is a relationship that needs examining. For those struggling with a family member or friend who is numbing out or more with alcohol, Dr. Elizabeth shares some tips on the path to wellness for them and for you.
We live in a society that glamorizes normalizes the use of alcohol for so many things - celebration, relaxation, de-stressing and more but when alcohol becomes a problem that same society shames and stigmatizes individuals. It's time to shine the light, open the conversation, speak frankly and advance the dialogue so that we all can lead healthy lives - whether with alcohol or without!
If you are struggling with your relationship with alcohol or someone you love is, here are some resources:

This week on Divorce & Beyond, Host, Susan Guthrie speaks with Best-Selling Author, Silvia Foti, whose book The Nazi's Granddaughter: How I Discovered My Grandfather Was a War Criminal caused a world-wide sensation and sparked a deeper conversation around her deeply personal journey through denial, loss of identity and eventual acceptance and decision to honor the truth.
At first it may be hard to see where Silvia Foti's journey from the treasured granddaughter of a celebrated national hero, to the becoming the myth-busting heir to a history of deceit, anti-Semitism and Nazi collaboration intersects with the journey through divorce but trust us - it does! After all, when we are faced with a reality that we find unacceptable, such as divorce or other unwelcome major life change, isn't it human nature to enter some period of denial? Silvia certainly did when she discovered the truth about her grandfather's participation in atrocities during the war. And when you have believed for years that your role in life is wife, husband, partner and/or spouse, isn't there some element of loss of identity when things drastically change during a divorce? Silvia experienced this as well and more on her 20-year long journey to uncover and then document the truth of her history.
This is a riveting story of one woman's journey for truth and her many lessons that will help you on your way - be sure to listen today!
More About Silvia Foti:
SILVIA FOTI, author of the memoir The Nazi’s Granddaughter: How I Discovered My Grandfather Was a War Criminal, is an award-winning investigative journalist in Chicago and a high school literature teacher. She holds master’s degrees in journalism, education, and creative nonfiction. Silvia made a deathbed promise to her mother to write a book about her famous, WWII hero grandfather, Jonas Noreika, twenty-one years ago. Silvia’s grandmother begged her not to write about her husband. “Just let history lie,” she whispered. Silvia had no idea that in keeping her promise to her mother, her discoveries would bring her to a personal crisis, challenge her Catholic faith, unearth Holocaust denial, and expose an official cover-up by the Lithuanian government. Her goal in writing this story of her grandfather, known as General Storm in Lithuania, is to upend Lithuania’s narrative that Lithuanians had nothing to do with killing Jews, that it was all done by German Nazis.

April is officially recognized as Month of the Military Child. There are more than 1.6 million military children who face many challenges and unique experiences as a result of their parents' service. In fact, the entire family is faced with challenges when a member serves in the military so we are re-releasing this wonderful episode from the archive with Kristina Kaiser to help shed light on the sacrifices that families and children make to support our military. For more information on the Month of the Military Child visit: https://www.defense.gov/Spotlights/Month-of-the-Military-Child/
We often remember to honor those who serve, and rightly so, but the family members, especially the spouses of our active military members also make sacrifices in the name of our country and deserve our thanks as well. In honor of Military Family Appreciation Month, Kristina Kaiser, herself the former wife for almost 30 years of a Marine officer, gives an insider view into the many ways that our military families give of themselves, often to their detriment, while a family member is in active service. Facing many moves and relocations, job limitations, unpaid volunteer work expectancies, co-parenting alone and more, the spouses and children of military personnel also can be affected by the military life. Beyond that, divorce can be extra complicated when an active or former member of the military is involved. The pensions, benefits and more that are one of the highlights of military careers are limited in some ways in being divided during the divorce process and the non-military spouse may end up receiving less than the might have if they were not dealing with military benefits. Whether you are a member of the military, a military family member or one of those who owe them our thanks, this episode is a wonderful reminder of all they sacrifice for their country and why those thanks are deserved!
IMPORTANT NOTE: This episode is meant to honor our military families and to give a glimpse of the hardships and sacrifices that they make for out country. We mention some of the issues that can arise in a military divorce but if you are divorcing and military benefits are at issue, it is strongly advised that you seek counsel from an attorney in your area who is well-versed in military benefit in divorce.

This week on Divorce & Beyond, Host, Susan Guthrie speaks with Speaker and Author, Stephanie Raffelock who is on a mission to change the way we look at aging and change in our lives. Stephanie's insights on unleashing your Inner Creatrix is going to change the way you look at change - and change forever, the way you see your BEYOND!
“We need to revise how we think of aging. The old paradigm was: You’re born, you peak at midlife, and then you decline into decrepitude. Looking at aging as ascending a staircase, you gain well being, spirit, soul, wisdom, the ability to be truly intimate and a life with intention.” Jane Fonda

In this memorable episode, Host Susan Guthrie chats with Coach and Author, Jennifer Warren Medwin, whose recently published book, Strategies and Tips From A Divorce Coach: A Roadmap to Move Forward is a goldmine of easy to remember and to adopt strategies and frameworks for moving successfully through your divorce and into your future. It's like a divorce coach in a book!
One reality of divorce is that there is way too much information for us to take in at a time when we are emotionally and physically exhausted and strained. It is hard to remember our name some days let alone the necessary strategies that we need to survive and thrive through the process. Divorce Coach and Author, Jennifer Warren Medwin has taken all the key elements that anyone going through divorce or other major life change needs, and has broken them down with mnemonics and other simple teaching tools to make them memorable and easy to follow so that you can keep them on sticky notes in your head, ready to use when needed!
Listen to the episode to hear all about the Three A's of Change, how to stay C.A.L.M. in challenging situations, some B.R.A.V.E. skills you can use to alleviate stress and how to L.E.A.N. into insecurity.
These golden nuggets and more are the sticky notes you need to get through your divorce!
