Read the article here: Should I inform my employer about my divorce?
In this episode, I set in the hot seat as I am interviewed by Tracy-Ann Moore Grant, founder of the Amicable Divorce Network. We tackle a question many people face but rarely talk about openly: should you tell your employer you’re getting divorced? 💼💔
Divorce doesn’t stay neatly contained within your personal life — it can impact your focus, performance, finances, and emotional wellbeing, all of which may show up at work. But deciding whether to share this with your employer isn’t always straightforward.
In this conversation, we explore:
- 🤔 The pros and cons of being open at work — from gaining support to maintaining privacy
- 🗣️ How to approach the conversation professionally, if you choose to share
- ⚖️ Your rights and boundaries — what you do and don’t have to disclose
- 🤝 What support employers may offer, including flexibility or adjustments
- 🧠 How to assess what’s right for you, based on your workplace culture and personal situation
Whether you’re concerned about judgment, unsure how it might affect your role, or simply want to keep your private life private, this episode offers practical, balanced guidance to help you make a decision that feels right for you.
