Reinventing Yourself After Divorce | Lisa Niver
Tuesday, 27 January, 2026
What if the red flags in your life were literally invisible? Award-winning author, speaker, and travel host Lisa Niver joins Dara Levan to share her incredible story of reinvention after a traumatic divorce and a late-in-life diagnosis of a lazy eye that reshaped her understanding of her past. Discover how Lisa’s journey through vision therapy, extensive world travel, and writing her memoir "Brave-ish" helped her piece together a pattern of abuse she once mistook for a "parade." In this raw conversation, you'll learn the power of post-traumatic growth, the importance of asking "what now?" instead of "what if?", and practical tips for reclaiming your life and joy. If you've ever felt stuck, unseen, or are seeking inspiration to break free, this episode is for you.0:00 - Intro1:01 - Lisa Niver’s Book and Award3:37 - Jewish Summer Camp Inspiration5:26 - What is an Ulpan?7:48 - Adult Lazy Eye Diagnosis11:53 - The End of a Marriage15:29 - Connecting Vision and Relationship Patterns18:54 - The Vulnerability of Writing22:06 - The Book’s Unexpected Audience25:14 - Replacing Self-Judgment with Compassion27:58 - The Forward-Looking Question31:35 - The Challenge of Outlining37:40 - A Somatic Writing Ritual39:19 - What Brings Lisa Joy42:52 - OutroRESOURCES:https://www.lisaniver.com/https://wesaidgotravel.com/
