Divorce Summer School | Episode 2: Dealing with Financial Abandonment in Divorce


Listen Later

In Week 2 of Divorce Summer School, we’re bringing back one of our most talked-about episodes—an honest, eye-opening look at financial abandonment and what to do when you're cut off from money, access, or support during divorce.

Karen and Catherine break down what financial abandonment actually looks like—not just from your spouse, but sometimes even from your own legal team. This episode is packed with tips to help you prepare, advocate for yourself, and stop feeling stuck, alone, or powerless when it comes to your finances.

Whether you're just starting to think about divorce or already in it, this conversation is your reminder that you have more options—and more power—than you think.

What You’ll Learn:

  • What financial abandonment really means (it’s not just about money)

  • How to advocate for yourself when your spouse—or your attorney—fails to

  • Steps to take if your access to credit, cash, or documents is suddenly cut off

  • How to avoid emotionally driven financial decisions

  • Why preparation is your strongest form of protection
