In this episode, Certified Divorce Financial Analyst Melissa Murphy Pavone sheds light on the often-overlooked role of the “non-CFO spouse” during divorce. Melissa shares how her personal story shaped her mission to empower individuals, especially women, who have traditionally managed day-to-day finances but feel lost or excluded when it comes to long-term financial planning. In this discussion, we dive into collaborative divorce, a lesser-known but incredibly empowering option that keeps families out of court and centers respectful, creative solutions.
