What do you do when you love God, want to do the right thing, and still don’t know whether to stay or leave your marriage? For many people, the question of divorce isn’t about giving up — it’s about discernment. It’s about wanting peace instead of panic, clarity instead of guilt, and confidence that God is walking with you in the decision, not waiting on the other side of it.
In this episode, Jenn explores how to approach the divorce decision with faith and intention — without rushing, self-abandonment, or fear-based pressure. Rather than focusing on external timelines or cultural expectations, she offers a different compass: measuring the emotional and spiritual climate of your life and listening for God’s guidance in patterns, not perfection. You’ll hear compassionate insight on:
Why January often brings clarity around marriage decisions
The beliefs that keep people stuck in limbo
How betrayal changes the discernment process
The difference between choosing from fear and choosing with God
How to move forward — whether you stay or leave — with integrity, peace, and faith
This episode isn’t about telling you what choice to make. It’s about helping you trust yourself, trust God, and choose on purpose. If you’re standing at a crossroads, you’re not behind — and you’re not alone.

192. Serving vs. Striving: The Energy Shift That Heals After Divorce
Hey Joy Seekers — welcome back to Find the Joy with Jenn. I’m so glad you’re here. Today, we’re unpacking something that will shape every relationship you have — not just in your marriage or divorce, but in parenting, friendships, work, and any relationship you’ll ever build in the future.
It’s the energy you bring: are you showing up to serve or to strive to get?
This is part of your healing journey through divorce — learning how to grow better, not bitter. Because how you show up now will echo into every relationship you build later.
And before we dive in, let me say this: if you recognize yourself in the “get” side of things, you will have absolutely no judgment from me. I want you to hear that. There is no shame in noticing where you are. The natural human tendency is to ask, “What do I get out of this?” That’s normal. We all start there. But I’m here to show you how to take that natural instinct and grow beyond it — how to step into the best version of yourself through service.
If you’re walking through divorce — whether you’re still deciding, in the middle of the legal and emotional process, or already living life after — this message will help you grow better, not bitter. Because how you show up in relationships during this season shapes the kind of relationships you will build in the future.
