Therapist and podcaster Dr. Elizabeth Cohen is known to her fans as The “Divorce Doctor.” She shares her professional experience and personal insights on how to thrive after divorce. Backed by science, the book offers tips, tricks, and efficient exercises to get anyone back on track.

Something that drew me into the book was how open Dr. Cohen was about her own experience. She didn’t just provide advice like a therapist; she allowed me to experience her life as a woman and as a mother. As someone who has been through a divorce, this book resonated with me. It was frank and inspiring and showed me what I discovered in my own experience—there is life after divorce. And that life is not just about survival; it's about leading a better life than before. This book is a rich and rewarding read that I would recommend to anyone going through the end of their marriage.

3.5 Rating: It was good just felt like it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for and a lot didn’t apply to me. I was able to take away a few things and some of the exercises given are really good.

I listened to this less than a year after my official divorce date, and found it extremely helpful.
