What does a Guardian Ad Litem really think when a 10-year-old says they want 50/50 custody?Crystal Wright has heard it hundreds of times — and she can tell instantly when a child has been coached. As a family law attorney AND a working GAL in Atlanta, Georgia, Crystal is one of the rare practitioners who has seen the custody system from every angle: as the attorney fighting for clients, as the neutral investigator protecting children, and as the professional who has had exactly one parent incarcerated for defying her court orders.In this conversation, Crystal joins Lisa Johnson to unpack one of the most contentious questions in family law: when should a child's voice be allowed to decide their custody arrangement — and when should it be completely disregarded?The answer, Crystal says, has nothing to do with how articulate or advanced your child is. It has everything to do with whether the language they're using sounds like an actual child — or like someone's lawyer.What You'll Learn in This Episode:✅ How GALs instantly detect when a child has been coached — and what specific language is a dead giveaway✅ Why "I want 50/50 custody" coming from a 10-year-old should raise immediate red flags✅ What the 'borrowed scenarios' phenomenon looks like in a real investigation✅ How Crystal visits kids at their schools — without telling the parents — and why she always gets new information✅ The real impact on children when they're put in the middle: clinical depression, self-harm, 17-year-olds calling their GAL crying at 10pm✅ At what ages (11 and 14 in Georgia) a child's preference becomes legally relevant — and why that still doesn't mean they get to choose✅ The non-negotiable case for reunification therapy — and what Crystal does to parents who try to block it✅ How to find a qualified GAL and what to look for in a mental health expert for an older, refusing child✅ What to do when your child won't see you: Crystal's direct advice to rejected parents⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 — Introduction: How Lisa and Crystal met at the Bridging the Gap conference in London01:45 — How a GAL tells the difference: coached child vs. genuine preference04:30 — Crystal's background: family law attorney, boutique firm in Atlanta, and why she loves GAL work06:00 — Advanced children vs. coached children: why intelligence isn't the issue08:15 — "I want 50/50" — why that phrase signals coaching immediately10:00 — Age and preference in Georgia: the affidavit of election at 11, determinative weight at 1413:30 — Why Crystal stopped having children sign affidavits of election15:45 — The 17-year-old: even at near-adulthood, best interest analysis still controls18:00 — Reaction to New Jersey's ruling: what does it mean for children's long-term wellbeing?21:00 — Why Crystal visits children at their schools — without telling parents — and what she learns23:30 — Children and truth-telling: parroting, fawning, and protecting a parent26:00 — Loyalty conflicts: the real emotional impact on children stuck in the middle29:00 — Clinical depression, self-harm, and older kids calling Crystal crying at 10pm32:00 — Older children refusing contact: how to make the case for intervention to the court35:00 — Reunification therapy: Crystal has never been denied an order for it — and here's why38:30 — What happens to parents who block reunification therapy: contempt motions and incarceration41:00 — What kind of expert witness to bring in for an older refusing child43:30 — False allegations and fake documents: how they're handled in investigation46:00 — How to find a good GAL and what qualifications actually matter48:30 — How to prepare your child for a GAL interview (and what NOT to say)51:00 — Advice for rejected parents: don't give up, keep reaching out, send birthday gifts54:00 — Memory, photographs, and why fighting for a child who doesn't want you right now still matters56:30 — How to find Crystal Wright and closing remarks

Facing a negotiation with your high-conflict ex can feel like showing up to a battle already defeated — especially when they have more money, more confidence, or a better attorney. But corporate negotiation expert Lynn Price says the power imbalance you're feeling may be less real than you think. What IS real is whether you make the ask.Lynn spent 25 years as in-house corporate counsel and completed over 11,000 negotiations. In this conversation with Lisa Johnson, she breaks down her Three Rs Framework — Ready, Relatable, and Reasonable — and explains exactly how to apply it when you're co-parenting with someone determined to make your life miserable.In this episode, you'll learn:- The one mindset shift that lets you make the ask even when you feel powerless- How to use the 'have to haves / helpful haves / hopeful haves' system to walk into mediation with a clear, strategic game plan- Why you must stop talking after you make a request — and how to handle the silence- The acting technique that protects your most important priorities (your ex will never see it coming)- How to build enough rapport with a difficult person to actually move the negotiation forward- A general rule from a retired army general that will keep you out of trouble in every difficult conversation- Why practicing out loud — even to your mirror or your dog — can change how you show up in mediation- How to use AI to prepare for your next difficult conversation with your co-parentLisa and Lynn also explore the difference between negotiation and mediation, the psychology of letting the other side 'win' things that don't actually matter, and why knowing your 'walk-away' point before you sit down is one of the most powerful moves you can make.This isn't just theory — Lynn spent nearly 14 years in the construction industry, where her company had no leverage, going up against huge players and still getting what they needed. Her approach works on everyone from Fortune 500 executives to toxic co-parents. And it can work for you.If you're heading into custody mediation, a co-parenting negotiation, or just trying to get your ex to switch a weekend, this conversation will change how you approach it.About Lynn Price:Lynn Price is a negotiation speaker, trainer, and attorney.

Gardeners are now ready to proceed with all the plans they've been making for 2026. When they start, questions are likely to follow. Kiley Allan finds out what common questions are from Lisa Johnson, Horticulture Educator with Dane County Extension Service. Due to climate change and unpredictable weather, gardeners should use a soil thermometer rather than specific dates to decide when to plant. Planting too early in cold soil can cause seeds and tubers to rot. Johnson says for early crops like peas and potatoes, mid-April is a general starting point in southern Wisconsin, provided the soil is warm enough. For warm-weather crops like tomatoes and peppers, wait until after May 20th and ensure soil is at least 60°F and nighttime air stays above 50°F.Unfortunatley there's another swath of wet weather moving toward Wisconsin. Stu Muck, ag meterologist, says western Wisconsin could pick up more than an inch of rain after a warm Thursday passes. Wisconsin potatoes are being featured at Walmart thanks to their "Healthy Grown" label. Andy Dierks, fourth generation potato farmer in Coloma tells Stephanie Hoff how it happened. Healthy Grown is now officially recognized by Walmart, meaning Wisconsin potato shippers who are certified automatically meet the retailer’s rigorous sustainability requirements. Members receive direct, one-on-one consulting with UW specialists to review herbicide and fungicide programs, helping manage resistance and environmental impacts. The program provides a unique safety net for navigating the Endangered Species Act, helping growers determine specific mitigation points and product choices for their specific acreage. Even farms without traditional "wild" land like streams or hunting grounds can qualify for ecosystem service credits through pollinator plantings and tailored conservation efforts. With a 30-year history, the program is successfully transitioning from Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to Regenerative Agriculture to meet the shifting demands of the global food industry. Sam Moheban, immigration specialist with Ruder Ware law firm in Wausau tells Pam Jahnke that there's some new direction he's seeing immigration reform. Moheban calls it "whole of government" approach. Now the federal government is focusing on enforcement of I-9 paperwork used by every employer in the United States to attest that employees can legally be employed. He says new guidelines allow federal officials to service notice of inspection via certified mail or personal service. No raids - just paperwork and potential fines. How many businesses do you work with that have been around for 50 years? In Wisconsin we talk a lot about generational farms, but what about the generational businesses that are part of the fabric that make agriculture's success. Cory Berg is the president and CEO of QLF. Quality Liquid Feeds, headquartered in Dodgeville, will be celebrating its 50th anniversary next year. Berg tells Pam Jahnke about how his father sacrificed to start QLF. Today, although the company has a national footprint, it stays committed to keeping its headquarters in Dodgeville. Today, QLF is responsbile for buying around 70% of all the molasses produced in the state of Louisianna. That's supporting more than just Wisconsin farms.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Host Ron Rapaport discusses with certified domestic violence expert, advocate, high-conflict divorce coach, and author of the critically acclaimed book "Been There, Got Out" Lisa Johnson, about helping survivors to seek clarity, strength and a way forward. Lisa, who is not a lawyer, represented  herself  through scores of court appearances and her case was published in the Connecticut Law Journal in 2021 and her live testimony contributed to the passage of "Jennifer's Law", one of the first U.S. laws to expand the legal definition of domestic violence to include "coercive control" which is financial or emotional abuse.

If other home gardeners are anything like me, they're chomping at the bit to get things in the ground now that spring has sprung here in Wisconsin.

In this powerful episode of the Amicable Divorce Network Podcast, host Tracy Ann Moore-Grant sits down with Lisa Johnson and Chris Barry, high conflict divorce strategists and founders of Been There Got Out, to discuss their new book When Your Ex Turns the Kids Against You — and the very real, very painful issue of parental alienation.Lisa and Chris work daily with clients they describe as battling their own personal terrorists through the family law system — and in this conversation, they pull back the curtain on what alienation actually looks like, how it starts, and what parents can do to protect their children and themselves.

When Kasia Bukowska's horses refused to cooperate, she thought she was failing. What she discovered instead changed everything she understood about trauma, healing, and why we stay stuck. Kasia is a Polish equine-assisted therapist, equestrian coach, and artist who has spent years learning how to use horses as healing partners for clients working through deep emotional pain - including survivors of narcissistic abuse, people in the middle of high-conflict divorces, and anyone whose nervous system has been shattered by years of coercive control. But here's the most important thing she says right at the start of this conversation: you don't need a horse. The lessons horses teach — about nervous system regulation, about authenticity, about the way your energy affects everyone around you — apply to your dog, your cat, a rabbit, even a tree. If you've ever wondered why you can't seem to calm down no matter how hard you try, or why you walk into a custody evaluation dysregulated even though you desperately want to present well, this conversation is going to give you a completely different lens for understanding what's happening in your body. Lisa and Kasia go deep on how horses act as biological mirrors — literally responding to your internal state in real time — and what that reveals about the patterns keeping you stuck. Including a story about a giant shire horse and a little wooden pole that will stay with you. In this episode: 00:00 - Introduction: Who is Kasia Bukowska and why horses?01:45 - The one thing Kasia says immediately: you don't need a horse!03:30 - Kasia's background: equestrian coach, equine-assisted therapist, and artist05:20 - How she discovered the connection between her paintings and her horses' messages08:10 - What actually happens in an equine-assisted therapy session12:00 - Why Kasia works with horses at liberty (no halters, no riding) and what that makes possible16:30 - How a horse responds when you're reliving trauma vs. when you're regulated19:45 - "The way you do one thing is the way you do everything" - what this means for your healing24:00 - The cavaletti story: what a ton of horse taught one client about softening instead of pushing30:15 - How addiction, self-harm, and deep shame show up in equine sessions33:40 - What to do if you see horses on the side of the road and can't stop36:20 - How to use any animal (or a tree!) as a grounding tool right now40:10 - Can you do equine therapy online?

LISA JOHNSON like you've never seen before... In this weeks episode I speak to the incredible Lisa Johnson as she shares her experience of what it's really like being in the online world. Talking about the trolling she's received, "cancel culture" and the impact making money and becoming well known has truly had on her personal life.   / / / / We've had some feedback on this episode and we want to acknowledge it. As two white people discussing themes of racism we recognise that we do not have any lived experience of racism and we didn't address that clearly enough in the conversation or acknowledge our privilege. We respect that this is a very complex, sensitive and important topic, and we accept that we could have handled it with more care.

Sara Vandenburg brings a perspective you won't find anywhere else: she's both a highly credentialed therapist specializing in childhood sexual abuse AND a survivor who has done the deep healing work to talk about her own experience "like the weather." In this profoundly important conversation with Lisa Johnson, Sara shares insights that could literally save children's lives and transform families.Why Sara's voice matters: As someone who experienced incest by both biological parents over an eight-year period and has trained extensively in trauma therapy (LCSW Supervisor, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, Brain Spotting certified), Sara understands both the clinical realities and the lived experience of familial sexual abuse. Her ability to discuss her own trauma with complete peace demonstrates what's possible with proper therapeutic support.This interview offers guidance no other resource provides - the intersection of professional expertise, personal recovery, and practical strategies for parents navigating the most difficult situations imaginable in high-conflict custody cases.What You'll Learn:✅ How one in three girls and one in ten boys experience childhood sexual abuse✅ Why incest may occur in one in ten households (and why it's severely underreported)✅ The critical difference between sexual abuse by anyone vs. abuse within families✅ Sara's concept of the "elephant in the room" - why untreated trauma affects your children✅ How family secrets travel through generations even when children don't know the details✅ The neuroscience behind why stored trauma in your body creates vulnerability in your kids✅ A powerful story of three-generational disclosure and healing✅ How to create an environment where children feel safe telling you anything✅ Why your reaction to small disclosures determines whether children will share bigger concerns✅ What brain spotting therapy is and how it releases stored trauma from the body✅ How brain spotting differs from EMDR (both use bilateral brain stimulation)✅ The importance of finding therapists who understand your trauma doesn't define you✅ Age-appropriate language for teaching body safety to children as young as 4-5✅ Why pornography exposure at ages 8-9 means earlier conversations are essential✅ Documentation strategies when you notice behavioral changes in your child✅ How to distinguish between patterns and isolated incidents✅ Understanding healthy shame (humanity, humility, responsibility)✅ Understanding healthy guilt (values and amends)✅ What complete healing looks like - being able to discuss trauma matter-of-factly✅ Why waiting until children are 25+ is often best for certain disclosuresAbout Sara Vandenburg, LCSW-S: Sara Vandenburg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Supervisor in Texas and Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Hawaii with specialized training in treating familial sexual abuse and trauma. Her credentials include:- Licensed Clinical Social Worker Supervisor (Texas)- Licensed Clinical Social Worker (Hawaii)- Certified Sex Addiction Therapist- Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor- Certified in Brain Spotting (advanced somatic therapy)Sara's micro-niche is familial sexual abuse, and she offers counseling, coaching, and energy healing services through her practice.

In this episode, I'm joined by Lisa Johnson, co-founder of Been There Got Out, for an important conversation about coercive control and high-conflict divorce. Together, we explore the critical difference between typical divorce conflict — which usually de-escalates over time — and controlling behavior that escalates, creating ongoing fear, instability, and exhaustion. Lisa is a high-conflict divorce strategist and a certified domestic violence advocate who has successfully represented herself through scores of court appearances. Her case was published in the Connecticut Law Journal and is now being used as legal precedent...something that's incredibly rare for a self-represented litigant. Her live testimony also helped pass Jennifer's Law in Connecticut, making it the third state in the country to expand its legal definition of domestic violence to include coercive control: a form of abuse that so many people experience, but often struggle to name or be taken seriously around. Lisa and her partner, Chris, now coach people navigating high-conflict relationships, divorce, custody battles, and what many describe as co-parenting hell — helping them have the best possible outcome in family court and beyond. They also offer a weekly Legal Abuse Support Group for those dealing with narcissistic opponents in legal matters.  Lisa explains how coercive control can include manipulation, financial abuse, and legal abuse, often carried out in quiet, passive ways that are easily misunderstood or minimized. The episode sheds light on why some individuals never "cool down," how the legal system can be used as a tool of control, and why patience and better communication are not enough in these situations.   Domestic violence doesn't always leave bruises. It can look like creating fear through quiet control, financial strain, or legal pressure.     Find out more about Lisa here:   https://beentheregotout.com/         Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

Send us a textIf you've ever said to yourself… “I know what to do… I'm just not f*cking doing it.”This episode is for you.And no, this isn't about funnels, algorithms, job titles or another damn thing to fix. This is about the identity gap that keeps brilliant, amazing women playing way smaller than they were ever meant to.Because the thing is… You don't have a strategy problem.You have an internal authority problem.In this episode, I'm pulling apart the idea of “imposter syndrome” (spoiler: I hate that term) and telling you what's actually happening when capable, experienced, intelligent women suddenly feel unsure, stuck, or like they've somehow blagged their way into their own life.This is about the shift from being very good at what you do… to leading like a CEO — not as a job title, but as an internal position of authority.Because without that shift? No amount of strategy will stick.In this episode, we go deep into:Why imposter syndrome isn't a flaw, diagnosis or “thing you have”.... it's a sign your external role has outgrown your internal identityThe outdated identity rules women are still operating from (earning your place, waiting to be “ready”, over-qualifying yourself into paralysis)Why calling it a “syndrome” actually gives your power awayThe real reason stepping into bigger work (leadership, impact, recurring income, visibility) suddenly feels wobbly (even when you're wildly competent)How internal authority changes everything… your decisions, your energy, your sustainability, your confidenceThere's also a deeply personal story in here that completely reframes how I see labels, identity, and the danger of pathologising human experience… and why that matters more than ever if you're building a life or business that actually fits who you're becoming.This is an episode for the woman who:Is done surviving but hasn't fully stepped into her next era yetKnows she's capable of more but keeps hesitating at the edgeIs tired of collecting strategies that don't landIs ready to stop asking for permission and start trusting herselfNo hype.No hustle.No “just be more confident” bullshit.Just grounded, identity-led truth.This episode is about identity.. the internal authority that has to come before any strategy actually sticks. But the strategy part is where Lisa Johnson's work comes in that I talk about as well.I don't recommend many strategy resources, because without identity work they just become another thing women know but don't fully implement. But when the internal shift is happening? Strategy becomes supportive instead of suffocating.Lisa's work is clean, practical, and grown-up. It's the how that works once you've stopped second-guessing yourself.You can check out the free challenge HEREThis isn't something I promote lightly…. it genuinely complements the identity work we're talking about in t

Hey Friends~  Today's conversation is unusual for this podcast, but an important one. Over half of marriages end in divorce, and about 30% of those become high-conflict - deeply impacting children. This week, I'm joined by Lisa Johnson, a high-conflict divorce coach, to unpack the often-misunderstood topic of coercive control. We talk about what it is, the red flags within relationships, how it shows up during divorce and custody battles. We also explore Jennifer's Law. We discuss how it recognizes the many non-physical forms of abuse. Lisa shares how children are victims, used as weapons in adult conflict, along with ways parents can begin rebuilding secure bonds after trauma. ⚠️ Listener Advisory: This episode covers sensitive material and is intended for a mature audience. Parents should use discretion with younger listeners.  I still hope you TUNE IN!  Because understanding coercive control could make a life-changing difference for you or someone you love.
