Finding the Beauty in Betrayal: Maggie Smith on Rebuilding Life after Divorce

Today author and poet Maggie Smith joins us in a vulnerable conversation about divorce and betrayal, and the journey of re-discovery after. We discuss the challenges and upheavals of divorce and how Maggie used this turbulent period to redefine her life, prioritize her well-being, and model resilience for her children.

As a parent, do you ever wish someone could just whisper some realistic and trustworthy support in your ear? And not make you feel awful for not having all the answers? Well, that’s what I’m here for. I'm Dr. Aliza Pressman, developmental psychologist, parent educator, asst. clinical professor, and co-founder of both Mount Sinai Parenting Center and SeedlingsGroup.
