Stuck in a divorce or custody fight that never seems to end? Brook Olsen has spent 25 years helping parents get out of high-conflict divorces, and his main point is simple: every time you engage, you keep the fight going.
Brook is the founder of the High Conflict Diversion Program and host of the High Conflict Co-Parenting Podcast. He went through a high-conflict divorce himself. We talk about:
- What makes a divorce "high conflict," and why custody drives most of it - Why gray rocking is only step one, and Brook's 3 stages of disengagement - "Don't just do something, sit there": calming your nervous system before you act - Borderline, narcissism and attachment, and why your ex probably can't change - Whether family court is biased against men, and how to change how the judge sees you - Why the Nice Guy swings to "me, me, me," and how to set boundaries without being aggressive - Why you should wait before dating again (Brook says 24 months) - What a high-conflict divorce really costs, and where to start if you're early in it
