What if the traditional divorce system actually makes things worse — not better?

In this episode of the Drama-Free Divorce Podcast, host Cary Jacobson, attorney and mediator at Jacobson Family Law, is joined by Regina DeAngelis, founder of Family Transitions® Divorce Coaching & Mediation and creator of the 21st Century Family Transition® program.

Regina is a former divorce attorney with decades of experience — yet her own painful, adversarial divorce revealed just how toxic the traditional system can be, especially for families already carrying emotional or medical challenges. That experience led her to reimagine a healthier, more compassionate way forward.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why the traditional adversarial divorce system often harms families
• How high-conflict processes impact parents and children
• Regina’s personal journey through divorce while raising a child with serious medical needs
• What the 21st Century Family Transition® looks like in practice
• How families can transition peacefully without court involvement
• Why the future of divorce must center empathy, collaboration, and healing

This is a powerful conversation about redefining divorce — and proving that families can move forward without destroying each other in the process.
