Friends,

Divorce can feel like both a personal and spiritual rupture, leaving many questioning where they stand with God, the Church, and even themselves. But what if healing doesn’t require walking away, but instead how to remain?

In this episode, I’m joined by Carolyn Klika Catino, who shares her own journey through divorce and the deep healing that followed. Now serving others through her apostolate, Abounding Joy Ministry, she walks alongside individuals and families navigating separation and divorce with compassion, clarity, and hope.

Together, we explore what it looks like to:

• Stay connected to God and the Church in the midst of divorce
• Begin the process of emotional and spiritual healing
• Find support when you feel isolated or unsure where to turn
• Hold onto hope when your marriage has broken

This conversation is the beginning of a 3-part series on divorce, annulment, and forgiveness, offering a path forward for those seeking both truth and healing.
