Whether or not you are contemplating divorce or legal separation, it pays to know your rights, options, and opportunities. In today’s show we will talk about non-attorney mediated divorces and whether this could be an option for you. While Leslie Garske, the guest expert on this show is Colorado-specific, the information on mediation, and who is and is not a good candidate for mediation, is applicable anywhere. All divorcing couples will have to understand and navigate things like the separation of finances, assets, property, and come to terms with parenting time. This show will help you gain a greater understanding of what you need to know, whether or not you are contemplating divorce or separation.

About Leslie Garske
Leslie is the founder of Garske Mediation and is a mediator, divorce financial analyst and settlement consultant. Having gone through a divorce with two young children in the 1990s, and more recently a custody battle for her granddaughter, Leslie knows first-hand how awful the divorce process is. It turns your world upside down and makes it hard to enjoy life’s simplest pleasures. You feel isolated, anxious, and afraid.
Knowing that divorce is an emotional roller-coaster, Leslie shepards her clients through one of the worst times, offering them grace and compassion from a logical perspective. She strives to bring clarity and information to a draining process. At Garsek Mediation, she focuses on the “business transaction” at hand by simplifying your settlement to numbers and spreadsheets so you can make reasonable and informed choices, while keeping your emotions at bay. Once complete, Leslie and her team chart a timelined path forward to support the long term success of your settlement. They believe that education is key when deciding what’s best for you and your family for years to come. As Leslie says, “You know better than anyone what is best…and we listen.” Learn more and schedule your consultation at https://www.garskemediation.com/

Untangle yourself from the past, reclaim your power, and own your worth so you can create a future you love on your own terms. All with a wink and a smile!
“Should I stay, or should I go?” is one of the most important questions you will have to answer after learning of your partner’s infidelity. And even though most women want to make the decision quickly, the most important thing you can do is give yourself the gift of time and decide not to decide. In fact, the average length of time it takes for a couple to decide if they want to stay together is 12-18 months. Why? Because that’s how long it takes for you to see your partner in action and to gauge their behavior, commitment, and understanding of themselves and what led to the affair in the first place.

We hear a lot about the importance of forgiving the betraying partner, but what about forgiving ourselves? Especially when we’ve done nothing wrong. Forgiveness is a confusing, often circular, and deeply personal journey where we are forced to confront ourselves, our shame, imperfections, and our lack of control over situations or other people. Pull out a journal, kick back, and let’s process the journey of self-forgiveness together in this lovely, meandering show.

The shame of being the betrayed partner can be stifling, making us feel unworthy, afraid, or like we were to blame. Living in a state of fear, shame, and judgment cuts us off from our resources and keeps us locked in a cycle of despair. Even though getting help is hard, even though it’s risky to try to mend marriages or understand relationships, unless we take risks, the only thing that’s guaranteed is that we’ll never get what we want. Might now be the time to break free?

The recent Barbie movie brought to light the impossible situation that many women face when dealing with a patriarchal society. Namely, the system is rigged and there’s no way women can win. Unless they stop playing the old game, and create a new one instead!
Dealing with people who are bound and determined to create conflict and misunderstand or hurt you is maddening! It brings up a sense of self-righteous, yet totally justified, anger leading us to defend ourselves and our position, explain why their toxic behavior is hurtful, and work ourselves into even more frustration because we are never able to get our needs met. The sad truth is, some people are so wounded they will protect themselves at any cost, and you can never win. Here’s how to respond to the madness in a way that allows you to reclaim your power, set boundaries, and prioritize your peace of mind.
