In this episode of The Other Chair, author, attorney, trainer, and understanding-based mediator Katherine E. Miller shares how the understanding-based model turns divorce from a fight into an opportunity for insight - helping parties name emotions, uncover priorities, and negotiate clearer outcomes.

Drawing from her book The Emotionally Savvy Divorce Miller offers practical strategies for mediators and couples - from holding a safe space, processing anxiety, using writing and coaching, and combining emotional clarity with negotiation techniques - to reach respectful, lasting agreements.
