If you have been in divorce stress, family conflict, or a rough life season, it is so easy to slip into patterns that keep you stuck, right? Not because you’re weak. Because your brain is trying to protect you. But protection and progress are not the same thing. In this episode, I walk you through the ways you can disrupt the victim habits that are holding you back. These shifts in your thinking help you get your footing back (yes!), change the pattern, and start moving forward again…. without having to overhaul your whole life overnight. Want to get out of your own way? We talk about: How to spot the moment you are sliding into an old patternThe small changes that create momentum… fastWhy your environment and your inner circle matter more than people realizeWhat to do when you know better but still keep doing the same thingA mindset shift that helps you stop beating yourself up and start taking actionRESOURCES MEDIATION STARTER GUIDE: https://mailchi.mp/2939c428981d/mediation-resources KELLY'S BOOK: Victim Is Not Your Name https://a.co/d/e4VguRk AMEN CLINICS: (Dr. Daniel Amen): https://www.amenclinics.com BOOK MENTIONED: Resilient, Rick Hanson PhD https://a.co/d/05blH36P LEGAL & MEDIATION HELP: https://saperelawfirm.com INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/saperelawfirm FACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/saperelawfirm

Today we’re talking about something I see all the time in divorce, conflict, and life transitions. I call them the six victim habits. They’re not about calling yourself a victim.  They’re about spotting the patterns that quietly keep you stuck, keeping you from moving forward. In this episode, I’ll walk you through the six habits and help you figure out if one of them is showing up in your life right now. Once you spot it, you can fix it. We’ll chat about: The thrill of attention and when support turns into a trapSelf-imposed helplessness and why “I can’t” can become a defaultPlaying small and not growing because it feels uncomfortableThe “get them before they get you” mindset The “can’t say no” habit and how over-giving really leads to burnoutAnd some real life examples Next episode, I’ll show you what to do with this once you spot your habit, because awareness is totally step one, and change is the goal.

Text us your feedback or questions - we'd love to hear from you. You really can get through your divorce without it turning into an all-out war. I’m breaking down how to keep your peace and your power. Because being the “peacemaker” doesn’t mean being a pushover. It means you’re smart, strategic, and keeping your eyes on the long game instead of getting lost in the drama. We’ll talk about what a real peacemaker looks like (hint: calm and confident, not quiet and compliant), and how to protect what matters most to you without letting emotions run the show. Here’s what we’re diving into: The real difference between being peaceful and being passiveHow to get in the right headspace before a big talk or mediationWhy your emotional "state" affects how well you negotiateWhat to say when your ex pushes back without making things worseRed flags that you're giving too much away (and how to stop before you do)The one thing that can save you time, money, and a lot of stressIf you’ve been trying to “keep the peace” but end up feeling walked on, this one’s for you. I’ll show you how to stay grounded, protect your interests, and actually get to the finish line faster, with a lot less stress and way fewer lawyer bills.

Text us your feedback or questions - we'd love to hear from you. It sounds simple: just add your kid to the house title and skip the legal stuff. But what feels like a shortcut can turn into a mess… and sometimes, a full-blown legal disaster. In this episode, I’m joined by Sapere Pro and estate planning attorney Greg Bennett to talk about why putting family on your title is almost never a good idea. We’ve seen this move backfire in ways that cause family conflict, tax surprises, and court cases that could have been prevented. If you’ve ever thought, “I’ll just put my kid on the deed so it’s easier when I die,” this is your heads-up: it’s probably not as easy or as safe as it sounds. Greg and I often see people trying to do the right thing with their home, only to create problems they didn’t expect. We talk about what really happens when you add someone to your title, and how it can lead to legal issues, financial risk, and family tension that’s hard to unwind once it starts. Here’s what we cover: Why “just put them on” feels simple but can backfire fastThe real risks of giving up legal control of your homeHow families end up in court over decisions made with good intentionsA cleaner, safer way to protect your property and the people you loveThis one’s for anyone thinking about estate planning, helping aging parents, or navigating property during divorce. You have options. Just make sure they’re the right ones.

You can’t control how they’ll react, but you can control how you show up.  This episode is about getting grounded, staying calm, and making those hard conversations a little less painful... and a lot more productive.  When conflict flares up, the way you communicate can either move things forward or make them worse. I’m sharing the same tools I teach my clients—and use myself—to help navigate emotional conversations with more clarity and less chaos. Whether it’s your ex, your co-parent, or your boss, there is a better way.  You’ll hear a clip from my video guide, How to Talk to Your Ex About Mediation. And while this isn’t about mediation specifically, the same steps and language apply to any tough conversation, especially when emotions are high and the outcome really matters.  We’re digging into:  Why your emotional state before the conversation matters most How to set a non-confrontational tone without triggering the other person The power of neutral language, and why accusations backfire What not to say if you want to avoid defensiveness and dead ends Why pressure and ultimatums never get you what you want How to use scripts to prepare for difficult talks without sounding robotic The surprising upside of conflict (yes, there is one) If you’ve got a hard conversation coming up—or one you’ve been avoiding—this episode will help you get grounded, clear, and confident before you speak.  RESOURCES  Download Mediation Guide & Video: How to Talk to Your Ex About Mediation Kelly’s Book: Victim Is Not Your Name – https://a.co/d/e4VguRk Legal & Mediation Help: Sapere Law & Mediation - https://saperelawfirm.com  Instagram: @saperelawfirm Facebook: @saperelawfirm

This episode flips the script on what most veteran parents expect—and reveals what family court actually wants to see when it comes to veteran divorce and custody. In Part 2 of my conversation with Hon. Mark Johnson (Ret.), we move from trauma to the tricky terrain of divorce and parenting after PTSD. If Part 1 was about what went wrong, this one’s about how to start making it right. Whether you're a veteran struggling with post-combat stress and facing divorce, or the co-parent trying to hold it all together, this episode is full of clarity, compassion, and a clear plan forward. In this episode: ·       What family court really wants to see before granting custody ·       How to set up parenting plans that account for trauma history ·       The custody checklist every military family should read ·       When it’s time to lower your timeshare—and why that’s not losing ·       Why treatment first = better outcomes for everyone ·       A mock court speech that every lawyer should borrow About Mark Johnson: Hon. Mark Johnson (Ret.) served as a Superior Court Judge and Colonel in the U.S. Army. He’s a decorated Iraq War veteran, former Veteran’s Court judge, and the author of Scars and Strife, a novel inspired by real stories of combat trauma and recovery.

This one’s powerful.  If you or someone you love has worn the uniform, you already know that the battles don’t always stop when deployment ends. And when veterans divorce, there’s usually a whole lot beneath the surface leading up to the split.   In this episode of The Splitting Smart Podcast, I’m sitting down with someone I deeply respect: Hon. Mark Johnson (Ret.), an Iraq War vet, Bronze Star recipient, and the judge on the Veterans Court in Riverside County. He’s seen it all—PTSD, moral injury, addiction—and he’s here to share what most people (even lawyers) miss when a veteran ends up in family court.  We talk about trauma, recovery, justice, and the marriages caught in between.  In this episode:  Trauma and healing: what a decade of Veterans Court taught Judge Johnson  The signs of combat-related PTSD—and how they impact marriage Why reintegration is harder than people realize When domestic violence can really be about untreated trauma (and what to do about it) What spouses and lawyers need to ask—but usually don’t Stories of recovery, redemption, and hope About Mark Johnson:  Hon. Mark Johnson (Ret.) served as a Superior Court Judge and Colonel in the U.S. Army. He’s a decorated Iraq War veteran and longtime advocate for veterans who find themselves in the justice system, especially those struggling with PTSD and trauma. His novel, Scars and Strife, brings these stories to life through fiction rooted in truth.  Stay tuned for Part 2 (episode 62):  In the next episode, we dive deeper into veteran divorce, and what it takes to build real co-parenting agreements after military service and trauma.  HON.

They spent two years locked in a bitter divorce that racked up over $100K in legal fees—and that’s just one side. In this episode, I’m walking you through the story of my client "Jeremy," a retired man who did everything right. He offered fair settlements. He tried to keep it calm. He just wanted to move on with his life. But his ex was stuck in anger—and her attorney wasn’t there to solve problems, only escalate them. You’ll hear how a judge finally stepped in with a scolding from the bench, and why it still took two years, multiple court hearings, and over $100,000 (double that for both sides!) before a resolution. But this isn’t just about one couple. It’s about what happens when you let anger run the show: the stress, the time lost, the way it impacts your health, your family, and your future. Whether you’re the one feeling angry or you’re up against someone who is—this episode will help you understand what’s really at stake, and how to stop the madness. We’re unpacking: How a “simple” divorce turned into a financial and emotional nightmareWhy fear often hides behind deep-rooted angerThe mental and physical toll of prolonged litigation (including health scares)Why grown kids start pulling away when things get messyHow some attorneys thrive on conflict—and drag things outThe moment a judge said, “This should’ve settled long ago”How divorce mediation could’ve changed everythingMEDIATION STARTER GUIDE: https://mailchi.mp/2939c428981d/mediation-resources   WATCH ON YOUTUBE: The Splitting Smart Podcast FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM:  Instagram.com/saperelawfirm JOIN THE CONVERSATION ON FACEBOOK:  Facebook.com/saperelawfirm NEED QUALITY LEGAL HELP?

Text us your feedback or questions - we'd love to hear from you. Divorce can feel overwhelming—even when faith is a big part of your life. Many people turn to their church for guidance, but what if you don’t feel comfortable talking to your pastor? What if the advice you’re given doesn’t match up with what you know is best for you and your family? What is there is abuse?   In this episode, Kelly Bennett, Esq., continues her conversation with Denny Brewer—a longtime family law attorney, Executive Pastor, and General Counsel at Fellowship Church in Grapevine, Texas. They explore what faith communities often get wrong—and right—when it comes to divorce (hint: especially if there is abuse involved), how to navigate faith-based guilt, what to do if your place of worship isn’t the right fit for support, and why mediation can be the best choice for handling divorce for privacy and mental (and financial!) well-being reasons.  Kelly and Denny chat about: Why many people feel uncomfortable discussing divorce with their faith leaders  Why pastors and religious leaders should ask, “Is there abuse?”How abuse can go unmentioned and lead to tragedy When to seek professional guidance outside of your faith community Why mediation is often a better option than going to court Why there is no better time to embrace faith and lean into prayer than during divorce Plus, a couple of very surprising stories… Dennis Brewer is longtime family law attorney, and executive pastor and general counsel at Texas mega Church Fellowship Church in Grapevine, Texas.

Let’s be real: divorce is tough enough, but when you’re the breadwinner, it can feel like you’re being pulled in a million directions. You’ve poured a lot into your career—long hours, late nights, sacrificed weekends—and now you’re asking, “Is all of that going to work against me when it comes to custody of my kids?” This week, we’re tackling the real struggles of balancing work and family during a divorce.
