Episode notes

In the final episode of their podcast Starting Over, Edele, Sinead, Lindsay and Keavy from B*Witched talk about their experiences of divorce. Divorce rates are increasing across the world, and of course, this is being linked to the stresses that the pandemic has had on relationships. 

In this episode, Edele talks about the breakdown of her marriage and the affect that it had on her general wellbeing. She is honest about the physical as well as the emotional reaction that she experienced, and urges anyone who's feeling the same way to reach out if they're struggling. 

Lindsay talks about the breakdown of her first marriage and how difficult it can be to unpick your lives from each other, especially when the relationship has been a constant in your life for so long. She makes the point that there is light at the end of the tunnel, and talks about how she had to learn how to make sure past experiences didn't affect new relationships.

Ultimately, everyone deserves happiness and you always have a choice - even if that choice feels like an impossible one to make.
