On this shorty-episode, Kelly takes a call from Christy. Christy and her husband have a rocky marriage, and he won't go to counseling. Christy's thinking that maybe a trial separation is in order - but hubby is super prickly and she doesn't know how to broach the subject.
With her lawyer hat squarely in place, Kelly hears Christy's question for the first time and gives Christy practical advice that only a super-seasoned divorce and mediation lawyer can give. Listen in and learn:
. . . Why ultimatums don't work, and the smarter approach that does.
. . . What Empowerment Zones are, and how to live in those zones.
. . . How to approach a spouse who views hard conversations as personal attacks.
. . . How to set yourself up for a productive conversation by leading with love, sticking to facts over feelings, choosing a smart location for the discussion and using time limits.
Is legal separation right for Christy? You be the judge.
