Split. The After Ever After Podcast

So, you've come to the place of deciding that you want a separation. Now what? How do you have one of the most difficult conversations of your life with someone? Is there ever a right time?

The way you tell your spouse about your decision can set the tone for your entire separation and co-parenting future.

There's no changing that fact that this kind of conversation can be devastating and life-changing. But, there are ways to go about it that can help soften the blow and move things forward positively. The alternative can mean heightened conflict, "lawyering up", and drama, drama, drama.

In today's episode we discuss tips for:

HOW to tell your spouse in an appropriate way

WHEN to have the conversation, because timing is everything

WHAT things to say that can lower conflict

WHY it's so important to take the time to have this conversation in the best way possible
