Don’t feed the chaos: how to outsmart a swarmer in your divorce

If every message from your ex or their attorney feels like an ambush, you’re not imagining it—you’re dealing with a swarmer. In this episode, I’ll show you how to spot the tactics that thrive on chaos and keep you stuck in reaction mode. You’ll learn how to stay steady, shut down the noise, and make strategic moves that actually move your case forward. I’m giving you four clear tools—and one mantra—to help you stop feeding the fire and start taking your power back.

For people whose divorce has turned into a fight. You've been trying to be reasonable with someone who isn't. This podcast is a system for getting through it without losing yourself.

Every episode fits into one of three phases: Get Clarity, Get Going, Get Your Life Back. Start wherever you are. Nothing is out of order.
