For many divorced couples, it seems there was a long period of time where they lived in sexless marriages. This can have a huge impact on a relationship, both mentally and emotionally, and it can be very hard to work through it to revive a healthy sex life together.  But being in a sexless marriage can also affect your sex life after a divorce, as it may cause a lot of triggers and feelings of low self-esteem and unworthiness. In this episode you'll learn how to cope after a sexless marriage and the things you can do moving forward in new relationships to prevent it from happening again.

Mediation is a method of negotiation used in almost every divorce, whether you go to court or not. It's important to understand that typical mediation involves both spouses and one mediator who is trying to help both sides come to a settlement. The mediator is not more inclined to one party over the other, and that can be difficult for some people in the process. You can have a lawyer to help you through the mediation process, and in some states you are required to have your own lawyer sign off on the final mediated terms. There is a lot to know, and this episode explains it all! (Guest: Gabriella Formosa, Family Law Attorney)

It's challenging to go through divorce while also trying to manage "self care", including watching your eating habits. So many of us fall into unhealthy eating patterns - either stress eating too much or not eating at all due to the stress. There is a simple solution in "mindful eating", which can actually allow you to eat what you want and need, when you want and need it. It's really being aware of your choices, being aware of every bite you take and enjoying the food that you're eating. The choices we make impact our blood levels and stress levels, so if we keep reaching for the wrong things, we can actually be adding stress rather than reducing it. We spoke to a registered dietician who offers tons of helpful tips on how to adapt our already overwhelming lives and improve our eating patterns, so it's not another thing you have to tackle when the divorce is over and beyond.

In this episode, we talk to a parenting mediator/divorce coach/author whose personal experience through her own parents' divorce taught her that divorce is not a problem in our culture, but rather a potential solution to a problematic marriage. No one is advocating for divorce, but there is a way to have a mindset that allows you to embrace - and yes, even love - divorce...for what it is. It's a refreshing and uplifting perspective that helps shed some of the stigma surrounding divorce, and will help inspire everyone who listens!

You may not even think you have any assets, or not know what they are, but you need to protect them in your divorce! Your home, car, money in the bank, jewelry, artwork, furniture - pretty much anything you own is an asset. How and when to divide your assets is a part of the divorce process that can get complicated and messy, and it can cause a lot of anger and resentment as each spouse wants to be sure they're getting their fair share. There are actually many ways to split things up - it's not always just half of everything, and believe it or not there are ways to work through this process that can make things far more manageable. You have to hear this episode in order to know what's worth protecting and how! *New law update: in NY there is now a "best interest of the pets" standard.

Conventional wisdom says if you have suspicions that you need a private investigator for your divorce, then you likely do. Just keep in mind that the laws in your state may not "give" you anything more even if your spouse has cheated. Many states are no-fault, meaning infidelity won't factor into your divorce settlement, in terms of money. However, information like that may still help you with negotiations, because there may be reasons your spouse wants to keep it quiet. Also, if you are already divorced and you are the one paying spousal support, knowing whether your ex has moved in with a new significant other may reduce the amount you are obligated to pay, plus if your ex is not spending their time with your children, you may be able to change the custody situation. Knowing how a private investigator could help you with your divorce is important, and this episode lays out all the details and what you need to know. (Guest: Jan Barefoot, Private Investigator)

Finding money that your spouse may have hidden during your marriage is a daunting prospect, but one that often times is worth the time and effort - and money - to discover. You don't always need a forensic accountant to do it, a valuation expert may be a better choice for you, depending on your situation. A valuation expert can look at things differently than a forensic, and with their knowledge and expertise, they can tell you whether or not you should go looking for hidden funds. We had an in-depth interview all about what you need to know and why the risk may very well be worth the rewards.
