Lisa recently joined Dr. Sarah Bren’s “Secured Attachment” podcast to talk about how parents can navigate separation, divorce, and custody decisions with clarity, confidence, and a focus on their child’s well-being.
They covered a great deal, including:
–>The different legal pathways for separation and divorce (including mediation, collaborative law, and litigation) and how to determine which may be right for your family.
–>Common dynamics that can make self-advocacy harder, such as power imbalances, high-conflict relationships, or emotional manipulation.
—>What it means to “foster” a relationship between your child and their other parent—and why courts prioritize this.
—>How to set your child up for emotional success, even when the co-parenting relationship is strained.
—>Tangible behaviors that courts (and kids!) recognize as supporting healthy co-parenting.
—>Ways to support your child’s sense of voice and agency throughout the process—whether that’s through therapy, routines, or even court-appointed advocates.
And… much more.
