  • Ep 131 Unseen Divides: Subtle Parental Alienation in Divorce – Insights from Mediator Carol McKelvey
    Oct 30 2024
    In this episode, I sat down with Carol McKelvey, an experienced therapist and family mediator, to explore the complex issue of parental alienation from her unique vantage point. Carol, who has spent much of her career in behavioral health, transitioned into mediation to support families through divorce with an insightful, balanced approach. We delved into the subtler tactics of parental alienation—behaviors that often go unnoticed in court or mediation. Carol shared her perspective on how even subtle actions, like undermining the other parent's decisions in front of children, constitute alienation, and why these less overt forms can be particularly damaging. She offered practical advice for parents facing alienation on how to effectively advocate for their interests in mediation, along with insights on how the dynamic shifts when legal counsel is present. Throughout, Carol emphasized her role in restoring harmony when tensions run high, underscoring the importance of mediators in helping families reach resolutions that serve the best interests of everyone, especially the children.

  • Ep 129 Healing After Divorce: Releasing the Past and Building Trust to Safely Love Again with Dr. Gary Salyer (Premier)
    Oct 16 2024
    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Gary Salyer, transformational relationship mentor and author of Safe to Love Again: How to Release the Pain of Past Relationships and Create the Love You Deserve. Together, we unpack the concept of the "Invisible Divorce," examining why so many couples allow their relationships to drift into this space without actively working on the issues. We dive into the crucial moment of accepting when a marriage isn't working, explore how "relationship rights" are often infringed upon—leading to the breakdown of trust—and discuss the painful topics of betrayal and how to regain trust safely to open the door to future relationships. Lastly, we cover how to avoid repeating past relationship mistakes, setting the foundation for healthier connections moving forward. If you're looking for a deeper understanding of these critical relationship dynamics, this episode is for you.
