We have an incredibly inspiring guest on the show today: Grace Casper. Grace became a child of divorce at age eight. By age 10, she had already written her first manuscript draft for her book. Ever since, she’s had a mission to help families through the process of divorce. She is now 24 years old and runs Divorce Tips from Kids, which involves active social media engagement, sending out emails to parents, and hosting her podcast, Divorce: What I Wish My Parents Knew. The podcast is the first of its kind, which discusses the divorce process from the kids’ perspective. As a divorced father myself, and Colton being from a divorced home, we greatly appreciate Grace and her guests’ bravery and courage to serve the children and parents of divorce.
Grace is a Baylor University alumni; however, her hometown in Colorado will forever have her heart. When Grace isn’t creating content about divorce, she works as a full-time elementary school librarian (that’s way freaking cool, by the way!). She lives in Waco, TX with her tiny Maltipoo, Teddy (Yay, I have two dogs very similar to Teddy!), and two of her best friends.
Grace has lovingly written a book with practical wisdom and a compassionate heart, titled Dear Parents: Notes from a Child of Divorce. Grace and the Dads discuss many of her tips for parents, the mission she was called to at a young age, and the questions we ask ourselves, our parents, and our children through the journey of divorce and beyond. We all know and love someone affected by divorce, if we haven't been involved directly. Kids have a lot to say, and we fathers should listen. This is an episode you won't want to miss.
