More About Our Special Guest, Christine McGhee: Christina McGhee, MSW, is an internationally recognized divorce parenting expert, speaker, and author.

Throughout her career, she has educated parents and professionals on how to minimize the impact of divorce on children. In her book, PARENTING APART: How separated and divorced parents can raise happy and secure kids, Christina offers parents valuable strategies for dealing with the "real-life" everyday challenges of co-parenting.
One of her core beliefs is that divorce doesn't make you a bad parent. It makes you a parent going through a bad time.
Because she is passionate about helping parents get through that bad time, Christina also maintains an active coaching practice that allows her to work with Moms and Dads all over the world.
Christina has also leveraged her broad range of experience to create the unique multidisciplinary Co-Parenting Specialist™ Training Program. It teaches divorce professionals how to use a "child-centered" approach to engage with co-parents more effectively, deepen their understanding of how divorce impacts families, and use that knowledge to help co-parents craft better parenting plans and agreements.

Christina serves as the Education and Training Director for the SPLIT Outreach Project, a non-profit organization that produced SPLIT: The EARLY Years and SPLIT UP: The TEEN Years. These two compelling films let kids know they're not alone while normalizing the many feelings and experiences children and teens encounter when parents part.

Don't imagine that your dog will be as upset as you are. I know that's hard to hear.

Selling or buying a home during a divorce? Susan Guthrie brings in expert realtor Kathy Clark to shed light on the real estate journey for divorcing couples. With 13 years of experience in Southern California’s mortgage and real estate industry, Kathy shares essential strategies for navigating property sales, avoiding common pitfalls, and setting yourself up for a successful transition into your next home.
Kathy’s insights will help you avoid unnecessary stress and find the right realtor to guide you through mastering the real estate side of the divorce process.
Featured Topics:
The unique challenges of selling a home during a divorce, including differing goals with your soon-to-be-ex and when to consider sellingHow to find a realtor who genuinely understands divorce and real estate—questions to ask before signing on with anyoneThe ins and outs of realtor commissions and what to expect in today’s marketCommon mistakes divorcing individuals make when buying a new home—and how to avoid themDisclosure dilemmas: What to share (or not) with realtors and buyers about your divorceGolden nuggets:
“Everything has a value and everything has a cost. I encourage people to go into it open-minded and make sure their agent knows what they need.”“We have a fiduciary responsibility not to share what you don't want to be shared. You tell us ‘It's fine. Go ahead. It's amicable.’ There's got to be an expectation of how you're going to do things. I don't think it serves you well to disclose to everyone that there is a divorce. But I also don't think that you can hide it.”“Every house is not the same. Finding the right realtor who has the expertise in your particular home is something worth spending a little bit of time on.”****************************************

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS: SOBERLINKAs a family law attorney, I’ve seen firsthand how difficult it can be to navigate co-parenting when alcohol is involved, especially around the holidays.
Soberlink is a breathalyzer that ensures your co-parent is staying sober while they have the kids, which is especially important during this time of year, when alcohol can be present at so many gatherings.
Here’s how it works: Your co-parent will test at scheduled times throughout the day. The portable device uses facial recognition to confirm it’s really them taking the test, and tamper sensors ensure the results are accurate. Those results are sent directly to your phone or email in real-time, so you’ll always know that your kids are with a sober parent.
Soberlink is trusted by family law professionals for a reason. It’s the top alcohol monitoring system, and its court-admissible data can make all the difference in custody situations.
If you’re looking for more certainty and safety this holiday season, visit www.soberlink.com/susan to learn more and get $50 off your device.=========

Susan Guthrie welcomes special guest Marcia Zug, a family law expert and law professor, to discuss the move to repeal no-fault divorce laws. As reform proposals emerge across several states, this conversation explores what a shift back to fault-based divorce could mean for individuals, families, and the legal system.
Marcia offers insights into the history of no-fault divorce, the forces behind this legislative push, and the potential impacts on personal freedom, safety, and family dynamics. Tune in for an eye-opening look at the fight to preserve no-fault divorce and the disastrous implications for your rights and future.
Featured Topics:
Understanding the difference between fault divorce and no-fault divorce and what each requiresThe origins of no-fault divorce laws and how California became the first state to pass them in 1969The impact of repealing no-fault divorce, including its wider social and political implicationsThe future of no-fault divorce, the momentum behind repeal efforts, and whether there are movements to protect or expand these lawsGolden nuggets:
“If we want more people to get married, I think they need to understand both what marriage does for them and how it might be beneficial, but also not scare them by locking them into a marriage that they could never get out of.”“By forcing people to rehash all of the horrible things that have gone on in the marriage, it brings a lot of animosity to the divorce and makes negotiation and compromises much, much harder.”“ Even though cruelty was grounds for divorce, it wasn't protecting victims of violence in marriages. No-fault was seen as a solution to that. States reluctantly accepted it, not because they liked divorce, but because they recognized that it was needed because divorce to fault grounds was deadly, particularly to women.”****************************************
About this week's special guest: Marcia ZugMarcia Zug is a Family Law professor at the Jospeh F. Rice School of law at the University of South Carolina. Her latest book, You'll Do: A History of Marrying for Reasons Other than Love explores the instrumental use of marriage and the role of marriage in modern society.

Beverly Price reveals the invisible scars that complicate healing during and after divorce for abuse victims in this powerful Domestic Violence Awareness Month episode of Divorce & Beyond.
Susan Guthrie sits down with Beverly Price, a divorce coach and advocate for domestic violence survivors, to uncover the harsh realities of how divorce can re-traumatize victims. Together, they explore how untrained divorce professionals and legal abuse can exacerbate the trauma of domestic violence. Plus, Beverly shares critical advice on creating a safety exit plan, building support systems, and why trauma-informed care is essential.
Featured topics:
The various ways divorce can re-introduce trauma for those already traumatized in their relationshipUnintentional re-traumatization by professionals not versed in domestic violence and how to encourage victims to seek trauma-informed expertsUnderstanding legal abuse and how abusers can continue to manipulate and control throughout the legal processThe importance of trauma counseling to help victims process and heal from their experiencesHow to find a trauma-informed divorce coach and the impact of having the right supportNavigating personal turmoil, regret, and shame while going through divorce after being victimizedThe necessity of creating a safe exit plan—especially because 70% of women are murdered when leaving an abusive relationshipGolden nuggets:“There's a process that can happen that takes a person from being traumatized to then going through divorce and being re-traumatized. It's the action of, in some cases, facing the abuser, whether it's in mediation or whether it's in litigation. That in itself can be terrible.”“You didn't cause it. I've been working with a woman for almost a year to watch her get stronger and not blame herself. But it takes work because if you think about it, all the years that you were subject to it [the abuse], you're not going to flip a switch and all of a sudden feel confident and feel like it's not your fault. But it is the abuser's fault. He's not doing it to you. He's doing it for himself.”

Kate Anthony is back, right in her wheelhouse, guiding you through one of the most challenging decisions you'll ever face: Is there still hope for your relationship, or is it time to move on?

In this deep and insightful conversation, Susan and Kate explore the emotional and practical aspects of deciding whether to stay in a relationship or move forward.
