It’s the first Monday of the year, and Tara is here to discuss Divorce Day, the unofficial day marking a spike in divorce filings. Tara reflects on her own upbringing in a family with a history of separations, the challenges of marriage, and the emotional and financial complexities of divorce. With her signature humor and honesty, she dives into the reasons why this day exists—holiday stress, financial strain, unmet expectations, and the new year’s fresh start.
Whether you’re navigating a divorce, contemplating one, or just curious about this annual phenomenon, Tara offers empathy, encouragement, and a few laughs along the way. Plus, she reminds us that making yourself happy doesn’t always require a “perfect time” to start.
