Track 4: Talking to Your Kids About Divorce with Kate Anthony

Generational Shifts

Kate Anthony joins me for a conversation about separation and divorce, specifically how to talk to your kids about it. I know Kate and her work because she’s been my client since 2018! I’ve been editing her podcast since then and have firsthand knowledge of her work and how she does it. I think you’re really going to enjoy this week’s episode.

Kate is the author of The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision About Your Marriage, which, as of this episode's airing, is now also available in audiobook form! Kate is the host of the critically acclaimed and New York Times-recommended podcast The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast and creator of the groundbreaking online coaching program Should I Stay or Should I Go? which helps women make the most difficult decisions of their lives.

Kate shares:

• The answer to the question, “Should you stay in your marriage for your kids?”

• How to talk to your child/children about divorce, including getting on the same page about your why (why you’re getting a divorce) and having some plans/details figured out before having the conversation

• Therapy and support for children of divorce

• How do you respond if your child asks, "Are you and dad getting divorced?” when you actually are not?
