  • Empowering

    Thank you so much for this. This is my second separation and I really wish I had found you for my first, though that was 12 years ago. So informative, and gives great steps to be proactive. Th last thing I want is to be a passenger again and through your information I am proactive with realistic expectations. A great complement to my lawyer and I now ask better questions, am doing a lot of the leg work

    I canโ€™t thank you enough for the work you are both doing. I have felt very lonely and unseen in this process, but listening to you has made that less so. You provide a kind and grounded place to access through this challenging space. Thank you, I appreciate you.

  • A Lifeline During an Ongoing Court Battle

    Iโ€™ve been listening to this podcast since the beginning of my separation in 2023, and it has genuinely been one of the most supportive resources during such a difficult time. I am still in the middle of a court battle and my separation/divorce is not yet finalised, so having this podcast alongside me throughout the process has meant more than I can say.

    Although much of the legal advice is Australia-based and Iโ€™m in New Zealand, I still find it incredibly helpful. The insights into different pe... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

When It's Not Just Conflict: How Coercive Control Shows Up in Divorce
Q: What signs indicate the presence of the 3Ds (Disempowerment, Disrespect, Distortion) during negotiations?
Disempowerment appears as control over decisions and autonomy; disrespect shows as double standards and belittling; distortion involves misrepresenting the situation and presenting controlling actions as caring or necessary. When these persist in negotiations, coercive control is likely at play.
When It's Not Just Conflict: How Coercive Control Shows Up in Divorce
Q: How can someone tell if they're in a negotiation versus being manipulated in a post-separation context?
Examine the function of the behavior: is it about moving toward a resolution, or about maintaining control over life and decisions? True negotiation seeks resolution and flexibility, while coercive tactics are rigid and aimed at power and control.
When It's Not Just Conflict: How Coercive Control Shows Up in Divorce
Q: Can you describe in simple terms what coercive control is and how it differs from physical violence?
Coercive control is a strategic, purposeful pattern of behaviors aimed at creating dependence, disempowering the partner, and dominating the relationship, which can cause harm even without physical injuries. It underpins much domestic violence and often goes unrecognized because there are few or no bruises to show.
