Episode #13 is Live! Physical Intimacy After Divorce.
Lack of physical intimacy is cited as one of the top four factors in divorce. Oftentimes when one is coming out of a long term marriage where physical intimacy has been absent for a long time, many people make recapturing this a priority, perhaps before they have taken time to heal and know themselves.

Join me as Karisa Kaye, a certified s*x therapist helps us to understand today's attitudes and norms concerning physical intimacy while dating.

In this episode, we'll discuss the dangers, especially for women, to casual s*x. On the other hand, there are definite health benefits we'll talk about as well.

If you've jumped into the dating pool, how do you know when the time is right to be physically intimate? Having physical relations with someone new after being with the same partner for decades brings up its own set of anxieties and emotions.

The prevalence of the p**n industry has shaped how men and women view physical intimacy. Karisa discusses this shift and how to handle situations where you might be asked to perform acts that make you uncomfortable.

"I prayed to God to fix my marriage; why won't he answer my prayer?" or "I prayed for my husband to leave that other woman" or "I prayed for my wife to come home." If you see yourself in those statements, listen to episode 12 of The Silver Divorce Podcast as Betsy Kammerdiener, a pastor and ordained minister, shares insight into scripture and divorce. The Silver Divorce Podcast is available anywhere you get your podcasts.

Episode #12 is out! Many people agonize over the decision to divorce because they reference the Bible, Malachi 2:16, which says, "For I hate divorce, says the Lord the God of Israel." They are compelled to stay in a marriage that is mentally and sometimes physically harmful for that reason. The first rule of scripture interpretation is context. Why did he say those words? Who ws he saying them to? What else did he say in that passage referencing divorce?

Join us as Betsy Kammerdiener, a pastor and ordained minister helps to unpack the meaning behind scripture. We'll also discuss why God doesn't seem to answer prayers to "fix my marriage."

In this episode, we discuss the church and divorce. Many churches seem to struggle with what to do about divorced couples. Why does it seem like the church keeps divorced people at arm's length?

Finally, if you are in the midst of divorce and struggling with your faith, Betsy has recommendations to help you mentally and spiritually.

There are 31 million entrepreneurs in the US and 10 million self-employed adults. A divorce creates its own set of unique issues in the division of assets, especially if the husband and wife started the business together. A divorce can have a significant impact on operations and cash flow and can put the business at risk of losing employees. In this episode of the Silver Divorce Podcast, Shannon Farr, CPA, ABV, CFF, of Elliott Davis, helps to unpack how to process valuing the business as part of a marital estate.

Shannon answers the main options for the business when a divorce happens, such as paying out the value of the business over a period of years.

What happens if one spouse is not involved in the business? Is there a consideration for the person who made the business their life's work?

What are the tax implications for transfer of property and are there options to mitigate?

In self-employment, oftentimes revenue is from cash and may be harder to track. Shannon shares how forensic accountants go about discovering hidden assets as well as determining what the expected revenue should be.
