What is a Post-Nuptial Agreement? (HINT: It's not a Divorce Tool) | S2, Ep. 69
You've heard of a pre-nup, but a post-nup? This is a similar document detailing both people's assets and what will be divided in a divorce, however it is negotiated and agreed upon AFTER a marriage, versus before. The concept of having an agreement in place in case a couple divorces can make things much easier during the actual divorce process, so this is an option for anyone who got married without having a pre-nup in place beforehand. There are specific things to know about how to approach and work out a post-nuptual agreement, and this episode gives all the details. (Guest: Andrea Vacca, Collaborative Divorce Attorney)

What Does a Divorce Coach Do? | S2, Ep. 67
Are you wondering what a Divorce Coach actually does and why you need one? The practice of divorce coaching has become more common and is often the best first step to take in your divorce process. They are different than your divorce lawyer (and less expensive) but can actually help guide you through many of the issues you face so that you only use your lawyer for the essentials - thereby saving you money. We brought in a top divorce coach who has also been through divorce, to help break down exactly what they do and how they can help you every step of the way, so that you know if this is the right choice for you.

What Is Divorce Mediation and Is It For You? | S2, Ep. 66
Mediation is a method of negotiation used in almost every divorce, whether you go to court or not. It's important to understand that typical mediation involves both spouses and one mediator who is trying to help both sides come to a settlement. The mediator is not more inclined to one party over the other, and that can be difficult for some people in the process. You can have a lawyer to help you through the mediation process, and in some states you are required to have your own lawyer sign off on the final mediated terms. There is a lot to know, and this episode explains it all! (Guest: Gabriella Formosa, Family Law Attorney)

Mindful Eating - Keep Your Eye On What You Eat | S2, Ep. 65
It's challenging to go through divorce while also trying to manage "self care", including watching your eating habits. So many of us fall into unhealthy eating patterns - either stress eating too much or not eating at all due to the stress. There is a simple solution in "mindful eating", which can actually allow you to eat what you want and need, when you want and need it. It's really being aware of your choices, being aware of every bite you take and enjoying the food that you're eating. The choices we make impact our blood levels and stress levels, so if we keep reaching for the wrong things, we can actually be adding stress rather than reducing it. We spoke to a registered dietician who offers tons of helpful tips on how to adapt our already overwhelming lives and improve our eating patterns, so it's not another thing you have to tackle when the divorce is over and beyond.

The D-Word: Can You Actually Love Divorce? | S2, Ep. 64
In this episode, we talk to a parenting mediator/divorce coach/author whose personal experience through her own parents' divorce taught her that divorce is not a problem in our culture, but rather a potential solution to a problematic marriage. No one is advocating for divorce, but there is a way to have a mindset that allows you to embrace - and yes, even love - divorce...for what it is. It's a refreshing and uplifting perspective that helps shed some of the stigma surrounding divorce, and will help inspire everyone who listens! (Guest: Tara Eisenhard, Parenting Mediator, Divorce Coach, Author "The D Word: Divorce Through a Child's Eyes")
