Anger is a natural part of divorce, but what if it’s not something to suppress or fear, but a tool for healing? This week, Susan Guthrie welcomes psychotherapist, speaker, and author Bronwyn Schweigerdt, host of Angry at the Right Things to speak about why anger is actually a good thing. In fact, Bronwyn believes anger isn’t a problem to fix but a guide leading us toward clarity, boundaries, and emotional freedom.
In this episode, Bronwyn helps us reframe our relationship with anger and how suppressing it can fuel anxiety, depression, and even physical illness. She also shares practical techniques, like the ‘fantasy letter’ exercise, to process anger in a healthy way.
If you’ve ever struggled with anger, your own or an ex’s, we hope this conversation will help you rethink anger and maybe even embrace it as a force for good. Anger can be a tool for healing and self-trust.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
- Why anger is a warning light, not a flaw—and how to listen to it.
- The hidden impact of suppressed anger on your body.
- How building a healthy relationship with anger can transform your emotional well-being.
- Boundaries, assertive communication, and accountability can help you move through anger with confidence.
More About Our Special Guest, Bronwyn Schweigerdt: Bronwyn Schweigerdt is a psychotherapist, speaker, author, and host of the podcast Angry at the Right Things. Her approach to anger is powerful, provocative, and life-changing. She believes that anger is not something to be fixed or avoided, but rather a signpost leading us toward clarity, boundaries, and emotional freedom.

Co-parenting is never easy, but when high stakes are involved—whether due to legal complexities, a history of domestic violence, or deep-seated conflict—it becomes even more challenging. Navigating these situations requires a unique blend of legal expertise and emotional intelligence, and that’s exactly what today’s guest, Robin Sax, brings to the table.
Robin is both an attorney and a clinical therapist, with over 15 years as a prosecutor specializing in domestic violence and child advocacy. Now, she dedicates her career to helping families navigate high-conflict co-parenting situations with a focus on resolution and stability.
In this episode, Robin shares her behind-the-scenes experiences working on some of the toughest co-parenting cases. She offers invaluable insights into the mistakes parents often make in high-conflict situations and how to avoid them. She also breaks down the critical role of communication, revealing common pitfalls and offering practical strategies to foster a healthier co-parenting relationship—even when tensions run high.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
- Why co-parenting is a team sport and how the right professionals can help you and your kids thrive.
- How your communication style with your co-parent can make or break your case.
- The power of the pause—why a delayed response can be the best way to de-escalate conflict.
- How self-awareness can transform your co-parenting relationship and create lasting change.
More About Our Special Guest, Robin Sax: Robin Sax is both an attorney and a clinical therapist, offering a truly one-of-a-kind practice that seamlessly blends legal and therapeutic skills. While her legal practice primarily focuses on the criminal justice system, Dear Co-Parent is where Robin’s distinctive approach shines.
Through Dear Co-Parent, Robin serves as a co-parenting therapist, behind-the-scenes coach, mediator, and parenting plan coordinator, helping families navigate high-conflict situations with both legal precision and therapeutic insight. Many professionals transition from law to therapy or vice versa, but Robin uniquely integrates both disciplines at once, providing a holistic, solution-oriented approach to co-parenting challenges.
Robin’s expertise is rooted in more than 15 years as a prosecutor, specializing in domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, and stalking. This background gives her a deep understanding of family dynamics, conflict resolution, and the legal complexities that often entangle co-parents. With Dear Co-Parent, Robin doesn’t just mediate—she strategically guides parents toward healthier communication, effective decisionmaking, and sustainable parenting solutions.
Her approach is not just about agreements—it’s about outcomes that truly serve children and families.

Susan Guthrie shares insider tips from her 35+ years of experience to help you work smarter with your attorney—saving time, money, and stress. These are the strategies divorce lawyers wish their clients knew, giving you the knowledge to navigate the process more efficiently and confidently.
In this solo episode, Susan pulls back the curtain on what every divorcing person needs to know—like why your attorney isn’t your therapist (and why treating them like one will cost you big), how to communicate so your lawyer can advocate for you, and why keeping your eyes on the future is the best strategy you can have.
Here Are Just Some of the Insider Tips You’ll Discover in This Episode:
- Lean on the right expert for the right job – Your attorney is there for legal strategy, not emotional support.
- Clear communication is everything – Your lawyer can’t fight for what they don’t know. Be upfront about your goals and priorities.
- Stay future-focused – Where you’re headed matters more than what you’re leaving behind.
- A great attorney aims for resolution – Litigation should be the last resort, not the first step.

Susan Guthrie sits down with Marc Garelick, a highly sought-after family law litigator, to explore what happens when a divorce case reaches the point where settlement isn’t possible, and litigation becomes the only path forward. While most divorces avoid the courtroom, situations involving high-conflict personalities, contentious custody disputes, or complex financial matters often require judicial intervention.
Marc brings a strategy-focused, results-driven approach to these challenging cases, sharing invaluable insights on how to prepare, what to expect, and how the right team can make all the difference in high-stakes litigation.
If your case feels stuck or you’re unsure whether litigation is the answer, this episode provides clarity and direction to help you move forward.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
- Why 95% of divorce cases settle and what makes the other 5% head to court
- The critical importance of strategy in litigation, from evidence preparation to courtroom dynamics
- How to identify when litigation is the necessary next step in your divorce
- Why working with a skilled litigator can make or break your case
More About Our Special Guest, Marc Garelick: Orange County family law attorney Marc H. Garelick has extensive experience in high-conflict custody, child and spousal support, paternity and complex characterization and valuation proceedings in contentious and sophisticated family law matters. He manages the Orange County law firm office in Irvine.
