This week on the show, I have Kurt Chacon joining me.

Kurt Chacon is a collaborative lawyer and certified divorce coach based in Dallas, Texas. 

As both a child of divorce and a parent of divorce, Kurt has seen divorce from every possible angle. This perspective is why his goal is always to mitigate the effects of divorce on children. He is a member of both the Collaborative Law and Family Law Sections of the State Bar of Texas. He is also a member of the Collaborative Law Institute of Texas (CLI-TX), Collaborative Divorce Denton County, and Collaborative Divorce Texas

In this episode we talked about:

• Growing up as an only child with divorced parents.
• How he got involved with collaborative divorce, as someone who went through it firsthand.
• Going through his own divorce and having the need to be supported by a collaborative lawyer.
• The effects of divorce on children.
• What a collaborative divorce is and what the collaborative process looks like.
• Children's perspective on divorce.
• Situations where collaborative divorce is not recommended.
• The difference between the collaborative process and cooperative law.
• The general timeline in a collaborative divorce process.

Personally, I believe a collaborative divorce is a fantastic option if it's possible in your situation, and I hope this episode helps you learn more about what it is, and if it's a good fit for you.
