Can there really be such a thing as a "good divorce"? In this episode, I sit down with Karen McNenny, a divorce consultant and founder of The Good Divorce Experience, to explore how separation can be handled with dignity and care.
Karen’s story is both inspiring and relatable—she’s gone from actress and dancer to therapist, mediator, and divorce coach, all while navigating her own divorce as a mom of young kids. She shares how divorce, when approached thoughtfully, can be a transformative tool for building a healthier co-parenting relationship.
In our conversation, we dive into:
The biggest mistakes parents make during divorce and how to avoid them.
How to create a solid communication plan for your kids, their teachers, and extended family.
Tips for breaking the news to children in a way that minimizes trauma.
Practical ways to let go of resentment, shift your mindset, and focus on growth—even if your ex isn’t on the same page.
Whether you’re just beginning the separation process or further along in your journey, Karen’s insights will help you reframe divorce as an opportunity for growth and healing.
