In an episode right out of the headlines, Susan speaks this week with Celebrity Divorce Attorney, Holly Davis, who represents Dillon Passage, the estranged husband of none other than Joe Exotic, "the Tiger King" of Netflix fame.  Even from behind bars where he is serving a 21 year sentence for attempting to hire a hitman to kill his business rival, Joe Exotic manages to continue to use the media to put his "spin" on his divorce from his husband and Holly joins us to set the record straight.  

Although most people are interested in celebrity divorces for the drama and trauma, there are much deeper lessons to be learned and Holly's strong message to her client, and to listeners, is that there is a great deal power in choosing to take the high road in your divorce process.  We walk through the benefits of not engaging in the hijinks and mudslinging that your spouse may choose to engage in.  You can take the high road, as Dillon Passage has chosen to do, so be sure to listen, get the facts and get on that high road today!

Listen to Holly's Previous Episode on Divorce & Beyond:  "Fraud and Divorce: What We Can Learn From the Zobrist Divorce"

More about Attorney Holly Davis:

Holly Davis has been representing Dillon Passage, former spouse of "Tiger King" Joe Exotic. When Joe announced that he had recently been diagnosed with cancer, Holly supported her client in taking the high road and pressing pause on divorce proceedings, which led Joe to falsely claim Dillon was foot-dragging on finality. 

Holly is a founding partner of Kirker Davis LLP in Austin,Texas, a leading matrimonial boutique law firm.  You can find out more at www.kirkerdavis.com.

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOR:

Thriving in divorce and beyond means not having to worry about the safety of your children when it comes to co-parenting. With alcohol abuse on the rise, many co-parents are turning to the system committed to providing proof, protection, and peace of mind. Soberlink’s alcohol monitoring system is the most convenient, reliable, and reasonable way for a parent to provide evidence that they are not drinking during parenting time. Soberlink’s real-time alerts, facial recognition, and tamper detection ensure the integrity of each test, so you can be confident your kids are with a sober parent. With Soberlink, judges rest assured that your child is safe, attorneys get court-admissible evidence of sobriety, and both parents have empowerment and peace of mind. Pull back the curtain on the mysteries of parenting time and trust The Experts in Remote Alcohol Monitoring Technology™ to keep you informed and your kids safe and secure.
