Divorce is never just about signing papers - it’s about navigating heartbreak, identity shifts, and the legal and financial chaos that can follow. In this episode of Life Unscripted, I sit down with Rob Malkani, former Harvard-trained lawyer turned divorce coach, to unpack the real side of divorce - beyond the clichés and legal jargon.
We dive deep into what it’s like to be blindsided by divorce, the emotional rollercoaster of custody battles, and the financial realities that most people aren’t prepared for. Rob shares the biggest mistakes people make when divorce hits, the mindset shifts necessary to move forward, and why closure might be a myth. We also explore high-conflict divorces, navigating post-divorce dating, and how to rebuild your life when it feels like everything has crumbled.
Whether you're in the thick of a divorce, rebuilding after one, or just curious about the realities no one talks about, this episode is packed with insights, practical advice, and some hard-hitting truths.
Tune in for a raw, unfiltered conversation about money, custody, identity, and finding peace after the storm.
