Divorce is as unique and individualized as the marriage, but all too often it feels like the process of divorce is either easy or hard, friendly or adversarial.

In this episode, I talk to Collaborative Divorce Coach Meg Gluckman, who shares the many options available for couples pre- and post-divorce.

Divorce is a difficult time AND there are ways to make it less challenging when you have options.

Meg Gluckman coaches parents who are navigating divorce and co-parenting. She specializes in helping parents 1-on-1 prepare and feel grounded for their divorce meetings, communicate with their co-parent without drama, and make decisions for the career and lifestyle they want after divorce. She co-parents her two kiddos on an island North of Seattle and loves doing cold plunges in Puget Sound.
