Send us a text


Join us as we sit down with family law attorney, Kimberly Brown,
to discuss the cultural and religious stigmas that have
historically clouded divorce with a sense of shame, and why it's
time to shed this thinking and view divorce through a healthier
lens. In this interview, Kimberly discusses the following:

•    Is Guilt Different Than Shame?
 •    How divorce tends to put people at high risk
for feeling shame, largely due to lingering stigmas that still
surround divorce.
 •    America’s cultural DNA and how it influences
how we think of divorce.
 •    Why divorce is thought of differently for
men and women.
 •    How the shame of getting divorced can
perpetuate domestic violence.
 •    Theology and religion’s history surrounding
divorce.
 •    “Until Death Do Us Part”: Its history and
contribution about shame and divorce. 
 •    Do some Judeo and Christian texts understand
and permit divorce?   
 •    The many words for love in
Hebrew/Aramaic.
