In this week's episode, Host, Susan Guthrie, chats with Author and Financial Coach, Millen Livis who shares with listeners the essential four steps to map your path to financial independence after divorce (or really, any time in life)!
In the realm of sad but true statements that divorce attorneys hear all the time is that someone has stayed in a marriage far longer than they would have chosen to because they were afraid they could not go it alone financially. In other cases, the fight over money when one spouse is financially dependent on the other, creates additional conflict and hard feelings in the process as one person feels they are doing all the giving and the other feels they are having to fight for every penny. The fact is, there is no power in being dependent in any way on another person and this can be especially true in a marriage or relationship. Millen Davis, knows the truth of this all too well having been there herself. Now financially independent and thriving, Millen helps others to find their own unique path to financial freedom and she is going to share the four essentials with you so that you can, as she says in the episode, get started right after you listen!
They say wisdom is power, but financial freedom is essential to living your best life so sit down, grab a pen and paper, and get ready to get started in mapping your path to financial independence!

In a very special Bonus Minisode, Susan reached out to friend and colleague, Jenny Stevens, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, who has 20 years of experience working with adolescents and families as a school counselor, for advice on how to talk with your kids about the traumatic and scary ongoing epidemic of school shootings plaguing our country.
As many listeners know, the recent school shooting at Oxford High School in Oxford, Michigan on November 30, 2021, hit especially close to home as it was the school that her niece and nephew recently graduated from and the community where her brother and his family lived and thrived for many years. The fact it, there have been 222 school shooting so far this year and the threat of an active shooter is one that every child in school in this country faces. We need to talk with our kids, support them and help them feel safe in this scary world while also dealing with our own feelings of fear and fury that this keeps happening.
As always, when listeners reach out asking for guidance, Susan wants to talk with the people who have the experience and expertise to share their advice so in response to your many questions and comments on the topic, she reached out to Jenny Stevens, who until recently was a school counselor for more than 20 years. Jenny dropped everything to be here and share her top tips for talking with your kids about school shootings and even breaks it down for our younger children and our pre-teens and teens. This mini episode is here to help you talk about something that we all wish we didn't have to talk about.
Please listen.

This week on Divorce & Beyond, Dr. Debi Silber, the Founder of the Post-Betrayal Transformation Institute is back to visit with Host, Susan Guthrie, and she is here to help you break free from the victim mentality that can accompany the betrayal of a loved one, including adultery and financial infidelity.
Dr. Debi is a holistic psychologist whose ground-breaking research on the topic of betrayal and recovery led her to identify the four stages of betrayal and create a program to help people move beyond the pain and heal so that they can thrive and be happy again. Unfortunately, many people find themselves stuck in Stage 2 of the process, dwelling in the victim role, the hurt, anger and rage. There are many valid reasons to remain in this space but they will keep you from moving forward and beyond the betrayal to live a healthy and happy life.
In this episode, Dr. Debi outlines the four stages of the process and shares tips and insights into the "whys" and "hows" of healing and learning to trust again. She herself has been down the path and healed and that in and of itself is a story worth listening to this episode for!
As a VERY SPECIAL GIFT for listeners of Divorce & Beyond, Dr. Debi is giving away THREE of HER BEST-SELLING BOOKS to one very lucky person. Just listen to the episode all the way to the end to learn how to win!

On this week's episode, Host Susan Guthrie is joined by top family law attorney, Holly Davis, to discuss the fascinating celebrity divorce of Ben and Julianna Zobrist, which has been playing out for months in the media with allegations of fraud. Susan and Holly unpack the claims and bring a dose of reality into the conversation to help you to understand the role of fraud in divorce.
Former Chicago Cubs pitcher, Ben Zobrist has been very vocal in his allegations and claims of fraud in his divorce proceeding but is any of it true and if it is, what effect does it actually have on the divorce? Top family law attorney, Holly Davis discussed the facts of the case and what the legal effect of Ben's position is when it comes to a final judgment from the court. It is not unusual for a disgruntled spouse to cast aspersions on their ex, but is it just legal positioning or will it actually affect the outcome and sway the judge in court? Find out in this fascinating episode!
Some of the topics we discuss:
- Judges are supposed to be neutral, but will facts like this tend to push them to one party's side?
- How can an allegation of fraud play out in a divorce case? Does it become a separate case, or do the two legal cases become combined?
- How would a finding of fraud manifest in a final divorce decree?
- How commonly does fraud come up in divorce cases?
- Does having an affair increase the risk of being accused of fraud in a divorce proceeding?
- Can Zobrist make any other claims, like "mental anguish"?

Her decade long struggle through the family courts with her divorce and post-divorce custody issues with her narcissistic ex, gave her insights and an understanding of the system, and it's shortcomings and failures, that not many people experience. Tina ultimately was able to represent herself in court and to terminate her exes parental rights, in an effort to protect her children and she is passionate about sharing her wisdom and experience with others. Tina wrote her book, Divorcing a Narcissist: One Mom's Battle, which is now a website, program and community, to help those who need help as they navigate the broken family court system. She also was the driving force behind establishing Family Court Awareness Month, intended to bring awareness to the shortcomings of the family law court system and spark conversation and change for the benefit of the children involved.
In this episode, Tina covers her top questions to ask yourself to prepare to divorce a narcissist and protect your kids - don't miss it!
