About Restored: Helping Children of Divorce
Children of divorce are 2–3 times more likely to get divorced themselves, and are more likely to struggle with emotional problems, relationship issues, and bad habits. But those stats don't get to write your story. If your parents' divorce or family dysfunction left wounds you can't always put into words, this show is for you. Restored shares real stories and expert interviews to help adult children of divorce heal childhood trauma, break generational cycles, and build the healthy marriage or relationships you've always wanted. Each week we go straight at the questions other shows won't touch: how to set boundaries with a narcissistic or unsafe parent, how co-parenting and blended families shape kids into adulthood, what the Catholic Church actually teaches about annulment, why affairs happen and how to affair-proof a marriage, and how to stop repeating your parents' relationship patterns without meaning to. Ranked in the top 10% of all podcasts and #18 in the divorce category — the only show dedicated specifically to children of divorce — listeners say it's "more effective than 30 years of counseling." You're not doomed to repeat your family's past. You can break the cycle, and we're here to help you do it.

His Mom Cheated. Here’s How He Forgave Her and His Stepdad | Michael Comstock #185
Published 6 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Yeah, no, couldn't agree more. You mentioned kind of having this anger, jaded view towards women. I'm curious, yeah, maybe what was, what were some of maybe the beliefs or assumptions, the ways in which you, yeah, looked at women because of what you experienced in your family? I felt that women couldn't be trusted because of the nature of the affair and, you know, my mom cheating on my dad. So I just had this like, this vendetta, like, you know, women can be trusted and They're going to hurt you. And I would say that love is very transactional. It can be taken away from you in a moment. And so to me, it was just very scary to put your heart out there, to give someone your heart, to give someone your trust. […]
