Money, Stability & The Next Chapter: Rebuilding Your Financial Life After Divorce
Divorce doesn’t just change your relationship and your way of life. It reshapes your entire financial world.

For many women, this brings a level of stress and uncertainty that can feel paralyzing. Financial decisions suddenly carry more weight, more fear, and more pressure to “get it right.”

This conversation is designed to meet you exactly where you are.

Instead of overwhelming you with complex strategies or long-term financial planning, this Lunch & Learn focuses on what matters most right now: creating stability.

Together, we’ll explore why money feels so difficult during divorce - especially when you’re navigating emotional stress - and how to move out of survival mode with simple, practical steps.

You’ll learn how to:

• Understand your current financial picture with clarity
• Prioritize essential expenses and create a manageable spending plan
• Build a financial safety net that supports your peace of mind
• Let go of rigid financial “rules” that don’t apply during life transitions
• Take aligned, steady steps toward financial independence

This is not about having all the answers.
It’s about creating a foundation that feels safe, steady, and supportive.

You are not starting over.
You are starting from experience, strength, and clarity.

And you don’t have to do it alone. Navigating divorce takes a village, I’m so glad you’re here 💚

It Doesn’t Take Two to Tango: Survival Strategies for Abusive Co-Parenting
If you’ve been labeled “high conflict” while doing everything in your power to protect your child, I want you to hear this clearly - it does not always take two to tango.

In many custody cases labeled “high conflict”, the conflict is not mutual. One parent is trying to create stability, follow court orders, and shield their child from chaos. The other is escalating, provoking, filing motions, or performing cooperation while creating conflict behind the scenes. In other words, asymmetrical conflict.

In this powerful Lunch & Learn conversation, I’m joined by custody mediator and court advocate Al Huntoon to unpack what abusive co-parenting dynamics actually look like, and how protective parents can respond strategically instead of reactively.

Together, we’ll discuss:

• The difference between “high conflict” and one-sided conflict

• Patterns of litigation abuse and performative cooperation

• Why courts often mislabel protective parents

• The relational vs transactional “operating systems” at play

• How parallel parenting actually works

• Boundaries that protect your peace

• Emotional regulation strategies that strengthen your credibility and resilience

This session is designed specifically for protective parents navigating coercive control, custody stalking (aka litigation abuse), and ongoing post-separation abuse.

You will leave with language for what you’re experiencing and concrete tools to navigate it without losing yourself in the process.
