Kate Anthony, host of the Divorce Survival Guide Podcast and author of The D Word, joins Tracy to talk about what it means to reclaim your agency, especially when you've spent years feeling like you're the problem.Kate shares her story of growing up undiagnosed, struggling in traditional learning environments, and always feeling like she was “bad at school”—until her son's diagnosis helped her connect the dots in her own life. The discovery gave her a new lens of self-compassion and helped her understand why experiential learning worked when academic structures didn't. Now, as a divorce coach and certified domestic violence advocate, Kate helps women—especially mothers—do the deep personal work of deciding whether to stay in or leave their marriages, with an approach grounded in self-knowledge, clarity, and safety.Kate and Tracy also explore how ADHD shows up in relationships: the dopamine-seeking behavior, the impulse to over-function, and the toll of living beneath your potential. They talk about how abuse can be subtle and confusing—especially for ADHD women who are naturally empathetic, people-pleasing, or used to masking—and why working on yourself is essential before making big relationship decisions. This episode is a powerful listen for anyone stuck in the question: Should I stay or should I go?Resources:Website: https://kateanthony.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedivorcesurvivalguide Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/YourDivorceSurvivalGuide Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Learn more by connecting with Tracy through Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or visit adhdforsmartwomen.com.Are You Ready to Discover Your Brilliance?

I'm excited to welcome Kate Anthony to the show today, "America's top divorce coach." Kate Anthony, author, critically acclaimed podcast host, and high conflict divorce coach, is not afraid to initiate tough conversations about relationships, domestic violence, and the cultural implications of our patriarchal society. In her book, The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision About Your Marriage, Kate dives deeply into the importance of self-work and the cultural understanding of marriage in order to sustain healthy interpersonal relationships. She serves clients across the globe through her private coaching, group programs, and her wildly popular online program,“Should I Stay or Should I Go.” Kate equips her clients with the tools they need to identify abusive relationships, and feel empowered to make decisions for themselves and their children while feeling validated and supported. Her number-one-ranked podcast, The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast, recommended by the New York Times, has reached over three million downloads and Kate has been featured as an expert in The New York Times, Forbes, Newsweek, and Pure Wow. Kate is a survivor of domestic abuse herself, and overcame many of her own challenges with navigating divorce with a child to consider. She believes that in order to uncover the root of marital issues we must look deeply at the patriarchal systems that underpin cis-hetero relationships in the 21st century. Kate understands how these systems affect men's behavior, marriage, violence in America and even divorce legislation in the US. This has inspired Kate's involvement with family court reform through organizations such as the National Safe Parents Organization (NSPO) and her advisory board membership with the Divorce Coalition. We discuss navigating toxic relationships, recognizing the signs of abuse, and empowering women to make the difficult decision of whether to stay or go.

In this final episode of Wise and Worthy, we want to leave you with the 7 Essentials When Navigating Divorce. Whether you're in the thick of the divorce process or reflecting on life after, these essentials will provide you with the tools and mindset needed to navigate this difficult time with grace, clarity, and strength.We also have a number of resources for you in our show notes, including links to some of our favorite divorce podcasts AND some FREE GIFTS to help you along the way!!So let's jump in…The first essential is…1. Emotional Support: Therapy, Coaching, and CommunityDivorce is emotionally taxing, and it's vital to have the right support in place. We discuss the value of therapy, divorce coaching, and surrounding yourself with loved ones who offer healthy, unbiased support. When emotions run high, having professionals to guide you and a solid emotional foundation is essential for making sound decisions.2. Get Educated: Legal Guidance You Can TrustDon't take legal advice from just anyone! It's crucial to get informed by seeking counsel from a *family law attorney*, not your spouse, friends, or family members. Proper legal advice ensures you're protecting your interests and making decisions that align with the law, not just emotions or hearsay.3. Financial Guidance: Understanding Your FinancesFinances can be one of the most complex parts of divorce. We emphasize reaching out to financial specialists and understanding your financial picture so you can negotiate from a place of clarity and confidence. With the right financial guidance, you'll be better equipped to secure a future that aligns with your needs.4. Child-Centric Decisions: Putting Kids FirstYour children should always be at the center of every decision during and after the divorce. We discuss the importance of maintaining a child-centric approach, ensuring their emotional and physical needs are prioritized above all else.5. Mastering Your Mindset: Shifting Limiting Beliefs Your mind can be your greatest obstacle or your biggest ally. Divorce often brings up limiting beliefs, assumptions, and self-doubt. We talk about noticing the stories you create in your head and how to shift those stories into ones that drive clarity, confidence, and action.6. Co-Parenting: Navigating the Long Game Whether you have an amicable co-parenting relationship or one that's more complex, it's essential to approach co-parenting with the long game in mind. We explore how to maintain peaceful communication when possible and when it's necessary to adopt a parallel parenting strategy to minimize conflict.7. Life After Divorce: True Freedom Finally, we discuss how life after divorce can be the most liberating time—if you've done the emotional and mindset work. By letting go of past arguments, regret, comparison, and fear, you can step into a new chapter of true freedom in all areas of your life.Resources to leave you with:@Wearesoworthy (Instagram and TikTok)Worthy on FacebookWorthy Blog  - Dozens of articles on Divorce topics including parenting, finances, dating, legal, and family.

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 relationship Unintentional re-traumatization by professionals not versed in domestic violence and how to encourage victims to seek trauma-informed experts Understanding legal abuse and how abusers can continue to manipulate and control throughout the legal process The importance of trauma counseling to help victims process and heal from their experiences How to find a trauma-informed divorce coach and the impact of having the right support Navigating personal turmoil, regret, and shame while going through divorce after being victimized The necessity of creating a safe exit plan—especially because 70% of women are murdered when leaving an abusive relationship Golden 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.” **************************************** About this week's special guest: Beverly Price Beverly Price, of Her Empowered Divorce, has helped thousands of women with her 30+ years' divorce coaching experience by providing knowledge, support, and insight to empower those going through the divorce process before, during and after.

One of the hardest steps we have to take when entering divorce is telling our kids and then navigating these turbulent early stages with their best interest in mind.  There is a lot of excellent advice on when and how to tell. Today we add some nuance to the conversation. Telling the kids in a ‘garden variety' divorce may look different than a high conflict divorce. We talk about doing what is best for the children, not you or your spouse; keeping it age appropriate and sharing comforting details of what comes next without overwhelming them with too much information.

Renowned divorce coach Kate Anthony sits down with Dr. Alexandra to offer us an empowering approach to divorce that centers accountability and integrity. Sharing wisdom from her own divorce, Kate guides Dr. Alexandra through the experience, from exploring what is embedded within the question ‘should I stay or should I go?' to all the tricky things that emerge in the aftermath of a separation: parenting decisions, the gender dynamics of divorce, and the heaps of unsolicited advice that's coming your way.Relevant links:The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision about Your Marriage by Kate AnthonyListen to The Divorce Survival Guide PodcastExplore Kate's program Should I Stay or Should I Go?Order Dr. Alexandra's new book, Love Every DaySubscribe to Dr. Alexandra's NewsletterSubmit a Listener Question Hosted on Acast.

Every single year, over 1 million women question leaving their marriage. And nearly 70 percent of all divorces are initiated by women. And it's no wonder – Marriage makes men's lives exponentially easier while it makes women's lives drastically harder. It is clear that ‘traditional' marriage dynamics are no longer tenable for American women.  Years ago, I remember having a chat with a friend where she was lamenting that she should be grateful her husband wasn't cavorting around, cheating on her, abusing substances, or screaming obscenities at her. I clearly remember her saying, “Wow, the bar is set pretty damn low.” Seriously. Not being abused should be a given, not something to be celebrated.  In my near two decades of coaching, I have found myriad women frustrated, overwhelmed, and downright furious about the inequity in their marriage. Whilst doing all the domestic labor, holding down impressive careers, and digging deep into therapy and personal development, these women often find themselves lonely, heartbroken, and baffled at the lack of ownership and responsibility their partners were exhibiting in the relationship. No wonder recent studies cite single women without children being the happiest in our society. In this week's episode, I chat with my close pal and colleague, Kate Anthony, who has just penned a book entitled, “The ‘D' Word: Making the Ultimate Decision about Your Marriage”. Kate talks with me about her own divorce journey, shares about debunked studies citing divorce negatively affects children, understanding narcissism, and the courageous choice not to settle for subpar relationships. Have a listen and gain more insight on if you should stay or if you should go. This pod explores: Understanding various forms of abuse and the unexpected way financial abuse shows up  The faulty and unfounded research that propagated the notion that you should “stay together for the kids” and what new research has found Why trying to “just communicate more effectively” isn't working for you and what to focus on instead The curious place we are in history where the gender dynamics of marriage are changing dramatically   PERKS FOR THE POD-IENCE This podcast is sponsored by LetsGetChecked and The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast listeners get a whoppin' 30% off their first test kit of choice at trylgc.com/boldtruth or simply enter code boldtruth at checkout.

This topic is especially relevant during the holiday season.

While splitting up is undeniably hard, Christina believes divorce doesn't have to equal devastation for families. She feels with the right kind of information and support, parents have the ability to be a child's absolute best resource when families change.  Throughout her career, she has educated both 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 useful strategies for dealing with the “real-life” everyday challenges of coparenting. 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. Most recently, Christina launched an online program, Coparenting with Purpose. Designed to provide moms and dads with an easy, convenient way to access critical information, it's filled with practical tools and solutions for managing the most common coparenting problems. Additionally, she has contributed to several other media projects as a featured expert, a content consultant, and a writer/producer. Currently, she serves as a consulting producer and subject matter expert for the documentaries SPLIT: A film for kids and their parents and Split UP: The Teen Years, two compelling films that let kids know they're not alone and normalize the many feelings and experiences children and teens encounter when parents part. Over the years, she has been featured on television, radio, podcasts, and in print around the US and abroad. A few places you may have seen her are TODAY Parents, the BBC, The Times, and Parents Magazine. Married for over twenty-seven years, Christina and her husband live outside of Houston, Texas.

November is Family Court Awareness Month. My friend and colleague, Tina Swithin, has dedicated the month of November to educating people about the family court system: how corrupt it can be, how unfair it is, and how uneducated most people in the family law system are about domestic violence. Tina was a guest on my podcast a few years back to share the truths about the family court system. If you fear you may end up in the family court system, you must listen to this episode. It will help you understand what family court is designed to do and enable you to prepare yourself to battle within the court system, which is not designed to protect you.  Listen to hear (or re-hear) this incredible conversation about family court awareness.    Featured topics include: Family Court Awareness Month is an opportunity for survivors to raise awareness at a community level.  The family court system is abusive. How we can come together to increase awareness.  The disconnect between family court and other judicial systems. There is no regulation or checks and balances. Very few states have required trauma-informed or domestic violence training for family court judges.  We examine how judges become appointed family law judges.  What you can expect when advocating for yourself in the family court system.  Learn more about Tina Swithin: Tina Swithin survived a “Category Five Divorce Hurricane” while acting as her own attorney in a high-conflict custody battle that turned her family's life upside down for over a decade.  Known for her internationally recognized blog, “One Mom's Battle” and her book series, “Divorcing a Narcissist,” Tina helps survivors to navigate the family court system against narcissists and other toxic individuals. In 2020, Tina launched two major projects: The High Conflict Divorce Coach Certification Program and a nationwide campaign, Family Court Awareness Month.   The mission at Family Court Awareness Month is to raise awareness and shine a spotlight on one of the most important branches of our judicial system; the family court system. The very system that was established to govern family law cases and make decisions that are “in the best interest” of children, has some undeniable shortcomings that warrant conversations, solutions and ultimately, change.   The mission at Family Court Awareness Month is fueled by the desire for a family court system that is trauma-informed and educated on domestic violence, coercive control and post separation abuse. To truly act in the best interest of children, our family court system needs to incorporate empirical data and research into their decisions and rulings.  Resources & Links: Links and information may also be found at: kateanthony.com/podcast/episode-241-family-court-awareness-month-with-tina-swithin/ Pre-order Kate's book “The D Word” and Grab Your Bonuses!Domestic Violence Training: Bridging the Gap in Divorce Law with Kate Anthony on The Divorce and Beyond Podcast #318 Family Court AwarenessOne Mom's BattleTina on FacebookTina on InstagramTina on LinkedIn TODAY'S EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY: SOBERLINK Proof.

Amy Polacko, Divorce and Empowerment Coach and Investigative Journalist returns to The Divorce & Beyond podcast with Susan Guthrie. Amy is here to help bust the top five myths of domestic abuse. The myths being busted are prominent and often repeated time and again. We must raise awareness so we don't perpetuate these myths and continue to cause incredible harm. Amy Polacko is committed to helping women live on their terms during/after a toxic relationship or divorce. As a divorced single mom, she is passionate about coaching women one-on-one and founded the empowerment group Strong Savvy Women to support, inspire, and guide single women. She is also an award-winning journalist highlighting women's issues, including divorce, domestic abuse, coercive control, and singlehood.  Myth Busting and Golden Nuggets includ Myth #1: “The Hysterical Woman.” Labeling women as "hysterical" diminishes their experiences and allows the cycle of abuse to continue. Myth #2: “Why didn't she just leave?” One reason: You need to have a safe exit plan, which takes time and planning. Myth #3: If there isn't physical violence, it's not really abuse. The more we tell stories of domestic abuse, the more aware we can become.  Myth #4: “It only happens in poor families.” Domestic abuse doesn't discriminate and affects people across all socioeconomic backgrounds. Myth #5: “What happens in someone's home is a private matter.” Domestic abuse isn't a private issue; it has societal repercussions.  What you can do to help break the cycle of abuse and raise awareness. **************************************** About this week's special guest: Amy Polacko Amy Polacko is a Freedom Warrior - and is committed to helping women live life on their own terms during/after a toxic relationship or divorce.
