In this episode, we sit down with therapists Rebecca Webster and Pablo Alvarez of Connection Counselling to break down how attachment styles (anxious, avoidant, disorganized, secure) show up during separation and divorce, and what actually helps. We cover emotional regulation vs flooding, why boundaries matter, and why not bad-mouthing the other parent is non-negotiable if you want secure, resilient kids. You’ll hear practical guidance on co-parenting, the danger of using kids as emotional support, litigation vs mediation, and how to avoid panic decisions (like giving up decision-making) when you’re dysregulated.

Celebrity relationships spark the conversation, but this episode focuses on real-life divorce. We cover how professionals should stay neutral (realtors, accountants, teachers, coaches), why sale proceeds often sit in trust without a signed separation agreement, and how to protect privacy and reduce conflict. You’ll hear practical tips on selling the matrimonial home, managing expectations about equity, handling school catchment issues, sharing info with kids’ coaches/teachers, and setting clear co-parenting communication so children aren’t caught in the middle.
