253: The Hidden Impact of Divorce on Adults- Kent D.

Welcome into the Young Dad Pod—whether you're juggling joint custody, unpacking childhood baggage, or just trying to build a better foundation than what you were handed—thanks for being here and tuning in.

Today’s guest is Kent Darcie, a licensed counselor and the founder of Adults with Divorced Parents Ministries. Kent has spent two decades helping adults who grew up in divorced homes understand how those early experiences affect their adult lives—especially in relationships, parenting, and self-worth. His book, Choose a Better Path, and his work at Hope4ADP.com offer tools for healing that don’t blame—but instead empower.

Big thanks to Kent Darcie for being with us. If today’s episode hit home, make sure you check out his website at Hope4ADP.com for blogs, podcasts, and resources on healing from the ripple effects of your parents’ divorce. His book Choose a Better Path is a must-read for anyone ready to break the cycle.
