The Legal Side of Divorce
Where do even begin to start a legal process, when all you can think about is feeling angry, sad or overwhelmed?
This episode was important for me to share with you for so many reasons. The legal side of divorce is daunting, overwhelming and can often feel like a never-ending custody and co-parenting battle. I wanted to find a speaker on this topic who could dive into the deeper parts of this journey and REALLY SHARE the in’s and out’s of WHERE TO START and HOW TO PREPARE if yourself mentally and emotionally when you start a legal process.
