Dr. Tamara Monosoff: From Gray Divorce to Badass — Rebuilding Life After 50

Episode Summary On this episode of the Junk to Jewels™ Podcast, Georgette Beck sits down with Dr. Tamara Monosoff (as part of the Podapalooza event) — a therapist, entrepreneur, and author holding a master's in marriage and family therapy and a doctorate in women's leadership — to talk about rebuilding life after her unexpected gray divorce ended a 38-year relationship. Tamara opens up about the identity loss, shame, isolation, and financial and social fears that so often follow a divorce after 50, and why grief has no timeline and can't be rushed. Georgette and Tamara explore how loneliness inside a marriage and unspoken truths can quietly erode connection, and why healing moves faster in community rather than alone. Tamara shares the small daily habits, long-deferred classes, and simple hellos that helped her recover — along with her leap to move to Portugal and finally pursue a childhood dream. It's an honest, hope-filled conversation about grief, reinvention, and discovering who you are on the other side of loss.
