Women initiate roughly 80% of divorces, often driven by accumulated small betrayals rather than major events. Broken promises pile up like a hoarder's closet, eroding trust through everyday failures to keep even trivial commitments.
I'm seeing a lot of powerful entrepreneurial women getting divorced right now.
I think it's close to 80% of divorces are initiated by women.
Wow.
And what that is, if we're going to really simplify it at its core, is micro moments of broken trust over time. And that doesn't look like a big betrayal. That is, you said you were going to do something and you didn't. Even if it's picking up bananas at the store and they stack and stack and stack and stack and stack and they don't have the skills to clear the debris.
It's like Hoarders, except you're hoarding all the things I did wrong. Resentment. Here's a closet of everything that Chris did wrong, and we know all of it.
All of it.
