In my discussion with Jeff Friedman, we identify the obstacles and delve into the solutions to help manage this difficult challenge.

I speak with renowned Judge Philip Marcus about how the terms used in the legal language of divorce are all wrong. Thinking of them as rights vs responsibilities, custody vs care, and visitation vs spending time, can negatively affect a parent's attitudes, and more seriously, the well being of their children. We explore how to counter the harm to children so they can thrive, and many other legal challenges parents face when getting divorced.

Did you know that couples will suffer on average,10 years before they seek marriage therapy? In this episode I speak with Psychotherapist Rabbi Yonasan Bender, LSW. We discuss how to determine if your marriage is over and steps to take if you think it might be.

Dr. Bass, herself a parent of a complex kid, guides us through some of the ways we can help our neurodivergent children, and ourselves, cope with the challenges divorce presents.

We discuss some of the money issues that come up pre-divorce, during the divorce and post-divorce, and the preparation you need to create some financial stability throughout the whole process.

I continue my discussion with Jeff Friedman.
We go into depth on the first of a list of 20 commandments, written by Jeff, from the child’s perspective. These help both parents understand the rules of conduct that will support their children through the divorce and for the co-parenting years that follow.

1st Commandment: “Don’t speak badly about my other parent in front of me. I am a part of you both and it makes me feel split inside badly about myself.”
