FREE Divorce Support Group Call June 19th on Loneliness and Isolation Jun 12, 2012

Show notes

We're pleased to announce a FREE divorce support group telephone call taking place June 19th from 8:00 - 9:30pm Eastern Standard Time.

Leading the call is Divorce Coach Karen McMahon, a frequent contributor to Divorce Source Radio. Steve Peck is encouraging all DSR listeners to attend this free call.

The call topic is Loneliness and Isolation. Loneliness is not just about your marriage ending, it is about all the aspects of your life that change. You are separating from your partner of many years and that by itself can lead to loneliness. But because your entire life is structured around your marriage, it impacts all your relationships. Going from a married couple to a single person affects your relationships with your family, in-laws, friends and most social circles that you have enjoyed during your married life. Finding yourself suddenly single can feel alien and isolating.

From Healthy to Horny Jun 12, 2012

Show notes

Okay, the show title is just plain dumb, but you try writing better. When Joanie, Lesley and Steve get together on Single Again! Now What?, the subjects change faster than a speeding bullet.

This show begins with a discussion on control freaks and quickly shifts into what chores some women have to do and Steve feels isn't right. (He's kind of old school.) The trio then shifts into healthy eating and the organic produce guidelines. Do you know how to tell the difference of true organic produce in stores based on the little sticker? And who's great idea was it to place a sticker on every piece of fruit?

So that's the health part of the show title. As for the horny, Lesley tells the story of a woman who has a "friend with benefits" relationship because he's "the best lover ever!" And where did he get his sexual knowledge... from a friggin book. (Steve claims he wrote the book... whatever.)

The show ends on an up-note with how to follow your heart and live your dream. So enjoy the ride and stop by the Single Again! Now What? Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/SingleAgainNowWhat.

When Selling The Divorce House Include The Children Jun 05, 2012

Show notes

Don't shove the children into the corner with the idea you are protecting them from the horrors of divorce when selling the marital home, you are not.

The children will start asking questions at this point (after some crying); one will certainly be about the home. Assuming you are going to sell the home, turn the conversation into something positive and reassuring. Tell them you will be inviting a realtor (specialist I hope!) over soon and you would like for them to be with you and ask questions.

In this episode or Divorce Source Radio with Steve Peck, Divorce Realtor, Randy Morrow joins us to discuss selling the marital home with children during divorce.

Blended families or step families, face challenges above and beyond that of the traditional family. Dr. Banschick addresses issues facing both parents and children.

While changes to family structure require some adjustment time for everyone involved, with the right guidance and realistic expectations, most blended families are able to work out their growing pains and live together successfully. Open communication, positive attitudes, mutual respect, and plenty of love and patience all have an important place in creating a healthy blended family.

How Your Brain Can Make Divorce Smarter May 23, 2012

Show notes

Did you know that your brain can help you through divorce in a much smarter, more emotionally balanced way? There is tremendous scientific knowledge about the brain yet the legal system is slow at integrating it.

Our guest, Nathalie Boutet (http://www.basmansmith.com/i3boutet.asp) (http://www.collaborativelawblog.ca/about-nathalie-boutet) explains what we have known for years – that our cognitive abilities diminish when we are experiencing strong emotion. Separating clients are frequently in a state of high emotions stemming from years of unhappiness in their marriage. They are likely to encounter many instances when they will get emotionally triggered during which time their ability to think and reason will be diminished. Yet we demand that separating parents co-parent effectively and work together amicably to resolve complex financial decisions.

Separating families, and especially the children, the innocent victims, suffer tremendously before, during and after the legal separation process.

How can you get through your divorce with the brain in mind? Ms. Boutet answers this question and more as we discuss:

Some of the causes of divorce and how the brain is affected
If people are struggling and don’t want to divorce, what can they do?
What makes a divorce easier/more difficult
How does brain science intersect with family law?
What are some of the pitfalls that people fall into– and what happens

This interview will help you understand how to bring in the humanity while divorcing all while being brain friendly. Sounds intriguing doesn’t it…..it’s an conversation you don’t want to miss.

What Does It Mean to Love Yourself? May 23, 2012

Show notes

On this episode of Divorce Source Radio with Steve Peck, Karen McMahon is back to help us understand what it means to love ourself. Self love is vital if we are to be loved in this world. If you have been living in a loveless marriage, you have not been getting what you need from your spouse… and what have you been giving yourself?

For many, it's hard to tell the difference between selfless, selfish and self-love. If your tendency has been to put other’s needs before yours, self love is neither easy nor comfortable. It often comes with feelings of guilt, fear and selfishness.

You need to be clear on the difference between selfish and self loving so that you can stand firm in your desire to be healthy and be able to explain / defend your actions to your loved ones. Oscar Wilde put it beautifully, “To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance”

The Leon Walker Case May 21, 2012

Show notes

The Leon Walker case has received national attention as a landmark case related to email privacy issues. Leon Walker Faces felony charges and up to 5-years in prison for reading his wife's emails.

Expert pundits on CNN have debated this case and many feel there is no merit to the charges, especially at a felony level. Leon Walker provided an exclusive interview with Divorce Source Radio's Steve Peck. This show provides a window into what Leon Walker has endured since being charged with the crime in 2011. Leon tells his version of the story and noted author and forensic trial consultant, Dean Tong, helps us sort through the legal maneuvers the prosecutor and defense might be considering.

Mr. Walker has been financially devastated and his life has been turned upside down due the charges filed against him. Does the county prosecuting the case really want to spend close to $500,000 of taxpayers' money to lock this man up for reading his wife's email? Mr. Walker claims he did so for the well-being of his kids. He had reason to believe the children were being subjected to a potentially abusive situation as his wife was seeing an ex with an abusive past.
