When all else fails, how does one know if divorce is the right choice for their relationship? Is divorce always a force of negativity? Or can divorce be a positive choice with positive outcomes?

On this episode of the Head Over Heels Show, we invite the lovely Leanne Townsend on to help us answer our questions about divorce. Leanne is a partner with Brauti Thorning LLP and practices exclusively in the area of family law, with a particular expertise in cases involving domestic violence and spousal abuse. Leanne is regularly featured in the media for her expertise in divorce and hosts the podcast ‘Divorcing Well’.

With divorce rates on the rise, we leaned on Leanne for her breadth of knowledge on the topic to help us better understand why people get divorced, how to avoid divorce, how to best prepare and protect yourself in your marriage and much, much more. Leanne shares the most common causes of divorce, what they all share, and the one thing that can help avoid them: (hint: it’s something we talk about all the time) Communication! She helps us understand the business perspective of marriage and how failure to acknowledge that component can lead to a breakdown in communication and ultimately divorce, as well as helps dispel myths and misconceptions about prenups and why they might be a good idea for you.

Although we normally like to talk about how to make your relationship thrive, Leanne fills in the holes in our knowledge with an endless stream of practical, thoughtful knowledge about divorce, family, and ultimately, finding happiness in this info-packed episode.
