| 5/14/26 |  The Book That Was Chasing Me: How The Good Divorce Found Its Way Into the World (Part 1 of 3) | At 18, Karen McNenny wrote in a pageant essay that her greatest ambition was to write a bestselling book. She had no idea what it would be about. She certainly never guessed divorce.In this first of three special episodes, Karen tells the origin story of The Good Divorce — from that Miss Montana essay to a publishing offer from Wiley/Jossey-Bass that arrived faster than anyone in the industry said it should. Along the way: a pandemic pivot, a stranger's persistent emails she almost ignored, two ghostwriters who flew to Missoula to squeeze her brain for two days, and a New York Times bestselling author who finally talked her off the ledge when the contract arrived and the reality of what she'd set in motion hit hard.She also reads from Chapter Four, “The Kids,” on preparing to deliver the hardest lines of her life to an audience of two. | 31m 44s | ||||||
| 5/7/26 |  Gray Divorce, Adult Children, and the Myth That They'll Be Fine — with Dr. Carol Hughes | What happens when parents wait until the kids are grown to divorce — and then discover their adult children are not fine with it? In this rich and eye-opening conversation, Karen sits down with Dr. Carol Hughes, clinical psychologist, two-time Fulbright Scholar, and one of the true pioneers of the collaborative divorce movement, to challenge one of the most pervasive myths in divorce: that adult children don't need the same care and intentionality that minor children do.Dr. Hughes shares the origin story of collaborative divorce — rooted in a single letter written on January 1, 1990 by Minnesota attorney Stu Webb, who declared he was "done going to court and destroying families" — and how that moment sparked a movement that has since trained over 25,000 collaborative professionals worldwide.Together, Karen and Dr. Hughes explore:Loyalty binds — what they are, how they form, and why they damage children of all agesThe five F's — fight, flight, freeze, fawn, and feign — and how our neurological wiring pulls us toward conflict when we feel unsafeGray divorce — why divorce among adults 50 and older doubled between 1990 and 2012, and what research from Bowling Green State University predicts by 2030The biggest myth about adult children — why "they're adults, they can handle it" is not only wrong, but harmfulFamily before finances — why starting with the children, not the money, leads to better outcomes for everyoneThe "six-year-old within" — how adult children still carry the emotional vulnerability of their younger selves, even when they appear to be copingCreating a divorce story — how parents can paint a picture of the future that reduces fear and uncertainty for their childrenThe statement of highest intentions — a collaborative divorce tool for helping couples get clear on what they actually want the process to look likePractical guidance for gray divorcing parents: how to involve adult children collaboratively in planning holidays, family gatherings, and transitions — without burdening them or writing them out of the storyDr. Hughes also opens up about her own childhood experience of her parents' divorce — including a detail that will shock modern listeners — and how an unexpected phone call from a minor's counsel changed the entire direction of her career.Resources & Links Mentioned:📖 Dr. Carol Hughes' book: Home Will Never Be the Same Again: A Guide for Adult Children of Gray Divorce— available at Barnes & Noble and all major booksellers🌐 Dr. Hughes' divorce website: divorcepeacemaking.com✍️ Dr. Hughes and Psychology Today: Visit Psychology Today's guest blog📖 Karen's book: The Good Divorce: How to End Your Marriage Without Ending Your Family🎓 The Good Divorce Academy: Karen's online community and classroom for ongoing support and education🌐 Work with Karen directly: thegooddivorcecoach.com🤝 Collaborative Divorce Solutions of Orange County🌍 International Academy of Collaborative Professionals (IACP) — trains collaborative divorce professionals worldwide📖 Workbooks referenced: Our Family in Two Homes and A Family in a Few Homes — created by a Canadian collaborative divorce attorney for use with minor and adult children respectively"Divorce is not a weapon — it's a tool.

| 4/30/26 |  Raiford Dalton Palmer on Divorce Done Differently: A Family Law Attorney's Case for the Good Divorce | What does it look like when a divorce attorney goes through his own divorce — and comes out the other side with a blended family, a co-parenting partnership, and a whole new perspective on his practice? That's exactly what Karen McNenny explores in this conversation with Raiford Dalton Palmer, Illinois divorce attorney, bestselling author, and CEO of STG Divorce Law.Raiford's own 2015 divorce after a 24-year marriage shaped not just how he lives — but how he leads his firm and serves his clients. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on what divorce law gets wrong, what families can do differently, and why his commercial litigation background may be the secret weapon more divorcing couples need.In this episode, you'll hear:Raiford's personal divorce story — what went right, what was hard, and how his blended family became a model of abundance over scarcityWhy "simple" and "easy" are not the same thing when it comes to divorceHow the adversarial, win/lose court system fails families — and the alternatives that are quietly changing the landscape (mediation, collaboration, arbitration, and the "1.5 attorney divorce")The 90/10 Rule: what attorneys can actually help you with — and what belongs with a therapist or divorce coachCost-benefit analysis applied to divorce — why staying in a high-conflict process can cost you far more than the dollars you're fighting overWhy social media silence is one of the smartest moves you can make during a divorceA preview of Raiford's upcoming book, I Just Want to Know How — the guide he wishes he'd had when struggling with his own marriage, and the book he believes couples should read before they ever say the D wordWhy going to marriage counseling early is not a sign you want a divorce — and why waiting too long is like treating stage 4 cancerResources mentioned:📘 I Just Want to Know How — Raiford's upcoming book, expected Fall 2026🎙️ I Just Want This Done Divorce Podcast — live Thursdays, drops every Friday on all major platforms and YouTube💬 Illinois Divorce Support — free, anonymous private Facebook group (open to all, not just Illinois residents)📲 Follow Raiford: @RaifordPalmer on TikTok, Instagram, and X⚖️ STG Divorce Law, P.C. — https://www.stglawfirm.com/attorneys/raiford-d-palmer/ | Serving the greater Chicagoland areaKaren McNenny is the author of The Good Divorce: How to End Your Marriage Without Ending Your Family.

| 4/23/26 | The Grief That Gets No Casserole | Divorce is a death — of a marriage, an identity, a family, a home — and yet our culture offers almost none of the support it would for any other kind of loss. In this solo episode, Karen gets honest about the grief of divorce: why we wildly underestimate it, why we're often left to navigate it in isolation, and what it actually looks like to move through it with intention.Karen introduces the concept of ambiguous grief — the particular pain of losing someone who is still very much present in your life as a co-parent — and why that "gone but not gone" experience makes healing so disorienting. She also calls out the trap of pain shopping: the social media stalking, the gossip, the drive-bys that keep picking at a wound that's trying to heal.You'll also hear Karen's case for including divorce in the Family Medical Leave Act, practical advice for surviving those first brutal transition days when the kids leave for the other home, and why the goal isn't to stop caring — it's to reach a place of emotional indifference, where your ex's choices simply don't rattle you anymore.This is an episode worth sharing with anyone in your support circle who wants to show up for you but isn't sure how.Topics covered:Why divorce grief is invisible — and why that isolation makes it harderThe many losses layered inside one divorceAmbiguous grief and the "gone but not gone" experience of co-parentingPain shopping: what it is and why it sets you backHow scars are different from wounds (and why that's good news)What emotional indifference actually means — and why it's the goalThe grief-relief cocktail: feeling two things at oncePractical tips for transition days when the kids leaveKaren's advocacy for divorce-inclusive workplace policiesResources:The Good Divorce by Karen McNennyThe Good Divorce Academy — online community & classroomthegooddivorcecoach.com"Everything will be okay in the end.

| 4/9/26 |  From Betrayal to Breakthrough: Understanding The Hidden Trauma Behind Divorce with Dr. Debi Silber | In this powerful episode of The Good Divorce Show, host Karen McNenny sits down with Dr. Debi Silber — founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation Institute, creator of National Forgiveness Day, and one of the world's leading experts on betrayal recovery — to explore why betrayal is a distinct form of trauma, and what it actually takes to fully heal from it.Drawing on her groundbreaking PhD research and her own deeply personal experience, Dr. Debi shares the discoveries that transformed her understanding of betrayal — and the five proven, predictable stages that lead to genuine healing and transformation.In this episode, you'll learn:Why betrayal is a different type of trauma that requires a different approach to healingWhat Post Betrayal Syndrome is — and the staggering statistics behind how many people are living with its symptomsWhy "time heals all wounds" is a myth when it comes to betrayalThe five stages of Post Betrayal Transformation — and the most common place people get stuckThe difference between easily trusting and wisely trusting againHow self-betrayal shows up in our lives and relationshipsDr. Debi's own remarkable story — including rebuilding herself, her work, and ultimately her marriageWhether you're walking through divorce, navigating co-parenting, or supporting clients in transition, this episode offers a framework for understanding one of the most underrecognized forms of trauma — and a roadmap to genuine transformation.Resources mentioned:📘 Unstuck by Dr. Debi Silber (her newest book, for practitioners)📘 Trust Again by Dr. Debi Silber🎙️ Podcast: From Betrayal to Breakthrough🌐 Post Betrayal Transformation Institute: pbtinstitute.com📅 National Forgiveness Day: September 1st🏫 Betrayal Recovery Certification Program (for coaches and practitioners)Connect with Karen:📘 The Good Divorce — Karen's book on ending your marriage without ending your family💼 Work with Karen: thegooddivorcecoach.com | 51m 58s | ||||||
| 4/2/26 | When Is It Okay to Start Dating? The Conversation Every Divorcing Couple Needs to Have | One of the most overlooked — and potentially explosive — topics in divorce is also one of the most personal: when is it okay to start dating again? In this episode, Karen McNenny, divorce consultant and co-parent specialist, makes the case that the timing of that question matters less than whether both partners have actually agreed on the answer.Karen walks through real-life examples from her work with divorcing couples, illustrating how the element of surprise — a discovered laptop conversation, an unexpected guest at a lunch that "meant nothing," a high school reunion that quietly rewrote the rules — can undo months of cooperative progress and poison settlement negotiations. When one partner feels blindsided or embarrassed, even a fair-minded co-parent can suddenly dig in on the fishing boat.The takeaway isn't a rulebook; it's a framework. Think of it as red light, green light — identifying together what milestone triggers the green light on dating, and what boundaries (around discretion, the kids, the extended community) apply in the meantime. Karen also offers a gentle but honest reminder that the newly-single version of you, however hopeful and energized, may not yet be ready for a serious new relationship — and that giving one chapter a proper ending is the best gift you can give the next one.📚 If you're enjoying the podcast, be sure to grab Karen's new book: The Good Divorce: How to End Your Marriage Without Ending Your Family | 18m 47s | ||||||

She breaks down the three root causes (evolution, family of origin, and cultural messaging), explains why butterflies and grand gestures are actually red flags in disguise, and walks us through the proven system that has produced zero divorces among Smart Dating Academy clients in 15 years.In this episode you'll hear about:Why readiness to date is about the work you've done, not the time that's passedThe dating funnel, red flags, and why 15 dates before exclusivity is the ruleWhen and how to introduce a new partner to your childrenThe brain chemistry of falling in love — and why pacing protects youWhat to expect working with the Smart Dating AcademyConnect with Bella Gandhi:Podcast: Smart Dating Academy PodcastWebsite: smartdatingacademy.comInstagram: @SmartDatingAcademy 📚 If you're enjoying the podcast, be sure to grab Karen's new book: The Good Divorce: How to End Your Marriage Without Ending Your Family | 40m 50s | ||||||
| 3/19/26 |  The Association That Has Your Back: Child Support Insurance, Divorce Benefits & Community with NASDF Founder Ron Platt | What if you could actually insure your child support and alimony? In this episode, Karen sits down with Ron Platt, co-founder of the National Association for Single and Divorced Families (NASDF), to introduce a first-of-its-kind organization built to support people at every stage of divorce — before, during, and long after the paperwork is signed. Ron shares the origin story of NASDF's groundbreaking insurance product, which is designed to guarantee child support and alimony payments in the event of death, disability, or involuntary unemployment — a concept 30 years in the making that his late father first dreamed up.But before we get to the business, Ron gets personal. As a child of divorce himself, he shares a surprisingly warm story of immigrant parents whose relationship actually improved after their marriage ended — a real-life example of "the good divorce." Ron also opens up about his own painful 14-year relationship, his journey through grief and therapy, and how he ultimately did the work to break old patterns and find unconditional love. His story is a reminder that divorce, as hard as it is, can be the catalyst for profound personal growth.Beyond insurance, Ron paints an ambitious vision for NASDF as the "Costco of associations" — a growing membership community that aims to negotiate discounts on everything from diapers and daycare to car purchases and legal fees for divorced and single-parent families. He also touches on their advocacy work in foster care reform and their commitment to serving all families — men and women, same-sex couples, and those "married by mortgage." Find NASDF at nasdf.org and, as Ron puts it: there is light at the end of the tunnel, but you gotta do the work.📚 If you're enjoying the podcast, be sure to grab Karen's new book: The Good Divorce: How to End Your Marriage Without Ending Your Family | 44m 57s | ||||||
| 3/12/26 | Two Homes, One Team: How to Make Co-Parenting Life Run Smoothly | Living across two homes doesn't have to feel like navigating a minefield — but it does take intention, communication, and a willingness to loosen your grip a little. In this episode of The Good Divorce Show, Karen McNenny gets practical about the day-to-day logistics of co-parenting, sharing real strategies that make life smoother for both parents and kids.Karen introduces the "boomerang 🪃 folder" — a simple but powerful tool for keeping both co-parents in the loop on everything from permission slips to test grades — and explains why letting both parents celebrate (and address) school milestones together matters more than you might think.She also tackles the gear question: how to handle belongings moving between homes without turning your kids into little luggage carriers.From Sunday transition timing to flexible residential schedules, Karen makes the case that the best co-parenting plans aren't rigid — they're rooted in relationship. When Uncle Bob and Aunt Betty come to town, or a work conference throws the calendar off, a foundation of mutual respect means you can actually problem-solve instead of power-struggle.At the heart of this episode is Karen's core philosophy: divorce is a family event first and a legal event second. Stabilize the family, protect the co-parent relationship, and the logistics — schedules, gear, transitions, and all — become so much more manageable.📚 If you're enjoying the podcast, be sure to grab Karen's new book: The Good Divorce: How to End Your Marriage Without Ending Your Family | 14m 00s | ||||||

| 3/5/26 |  Should I Stay or Should I Sell? Divorce Mortgage Strategy with Jody Bruns | Strategy, Lending, and Faith with Jody BrunsIn this episode, host Karen McNenny sits down with Jody Bruns, founder of the Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLP) designation and the Divorce Lending Association. With over 35 years in mortgage and finance — and having navigated her own divorce — Jody shares how she turned personal pain into a profession dedicated to helping divorcing homeowners make smarter, more strategic decisions about their most valuable asset.Jody and Karen dig into why the family home is far more than a financial transaction — it's an emotional anchor, a symbol of stability for children, and often the most complex piece of a divorce settlement. Jody explains how her CDLPs are trained to ask the deeper "why" before ever pulling out a loan application, and she walks through the real risks of keeping a home you can't truly afford, illustrated by her memorable story of a baseball mom in Colorado who needed to hear an honest conversation about priorities.The conversation gets into the nuts and bolts of divorce mortgage planning: the difference between a legal transfer assumption and a qualified loan assumption, how spousal support income affects mortgage qualification timing, why settlement agreement language can inadvertently block financing, and the complexity of 1031 exchanges during divorce. Jody also flags a key red flag for listeners: if a mortgage professional goes straight for a loan application without asking questions about your situation, walk away.Jody recently published a devotional book, Anchored in Faith: A Devotional Journey Through Divorce, to support those navigating the emotional and spiritual dimensions of divorce.

She describes the early conversations with her young kids, the importance of age‑appropriate honesty, and the quiet, daily work of building a home—literally and figuratively—where her children could feel safe, rooted, and held.Now more than a decade later, Melissa’s story offers a hopeful look at how a post‑divorce family can evolve. She talks about her ex‑husband’s eventual return to Missoula, the slow rebuilding of trust, and the surprising joy of shared birthdays and holidays that her children’s friends can hardly believe are possible. Melissa also opens up about blending households with her current partner and the three‑kid constellation they now navigate together. Her journey is a testament to resilience, creativity, and the belief that divorce, handled with intention, can lead to a life that is not just repaired—but transformed.Resources:Order Karen’s new book: The Good Divorce | 1h 05m 23s | ||||||
