All the best to you, Kim. It is difficult to navigate big life changes privately. When you have a partially public facing life, I imagine it is hard to decide how to approach that portion of your life when big life changes happen. You are a delight and I can’t wait to see what you do going forward. I admire your transparency. I am sure you will thrive.

I got divorced 15 years ago, and what I remember most was that everyone around me told me how sorry they were. Sorry? I was jubilant! I was wondering why they didn't congratulate me. So congratulations on this new chapter in your life! And, as a side note, I want to relate a little story I heard about the anthropologist Margaret Meade. She was doing a radio show years ago, and the interviewer asked her how she felt about having 3 failed marriages. She interrupted the interviewer to say something like 'I don't believe I had 3 failed marriages. They ended to be sure, but they lasted as long as they needed to and ended when they needed to.' I, like you, get along with my x and my children did just fine I think in part because of that. Again Congratulations!
