In this episode of Dishing on Divorce, Deanna Coyle sits down with certified divorce coach and pre-mediation coach Lyerly Spongberg to talk about how preparation can completely change the divorce experience.

Lyerly shares how her own high-conflict divorce led her to become the coach she once needed. She explains what divorce coaching is, how it is different from therapy, and why working with a pre-mediation coach can save time, money, and emotional energy.

They discuss:

What divorce coaching really is and who it is for

How pre-mediation coaching helps you walk into mediation prepared and confident

The biggest misconceptions about mediation

How to stay grounded and regulated during high-conflict conversations

Why keeping children at the center leads to better long-term outcomes
