We could have done this podcast in a few episodes.  There are so many facets to social media and divorce recovery.  We both agree that you shouldn’t just jump in with both feet and do a brain and/or heart dump.  Social media is not the place for airing that laundry.  With limited positive attributes in doing that, you should keep it simple and easy when posting.  As you know, once you post it, it...
