Synopsis
So, what kind of a divorce do you actually want to have? Just by asking this question YOU create the possibility that you have a choice in the matter! Do you want a divorce that is painful, expensive, and damaging to your children - a divorce like so many others in our society today where a worst-case outcome seems to have become the expected and accepted norm? Or do you want a divorce that is relatively painless and drama free, not more expensive than it needs to be, and one that leaves your children whole and your ability to co-parent amicably intact? It is possible to have a Good Divorce! In The Good Divorce: How to consciously create the best possible outcome for you and your family, Andrew Silvert, Becky Shook-Wotzka, and guest author Sonika Tinker give you everything you need to know to create a Good Divorce for you and your family. As the driver behind the idea for this book, Andrew knew his divorce journey was a story that needed to be told. Shared with passion and practicality, his nuggets of wisdom will make you believe that a Good Divorce is possible for you and your family. At Transitions for Life Mediation, Becky worked with over 300 couples utilizing the tools and techniques shared in this book to make her client's Good Divorces a reality. Transitions for Life does the remarkable every day: they create agreement and put integrity into the experience of divorce!
