Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2301773/fan_mail/new] Teens can look like they’re doing great while their world is quietly cracking. When parents divorce during adolescence, kids may keep their grades up, stay active, and joke with friends, yet still feel fear, anger, confusion, and a deep sense of loss about the family they thought they had. We sit down with national board certified mental health professional Sarah Kuretzky Rossington to talk about teen divorce recovery and why this stage is so often neglected.  * Ciick HERE to listen to Sarah on her podcast, the Hardcore Therapist, https://www.thehardcoretherapist.com/ [https://www.thehardcoretherapist.com/] * To schedule an initial consultation with Jacki, Click HERE https://calendly.com/roessler-jacki/30min?month=2026-06 [https://calendly.com/roessler-jacki/30min?month=2026-06] * Send your questions to us at divorcerichpod@gmail.com If this helps you, subscribe, share it with a co-parent or friend, and leave a review so more families can find support when they need it most.

Her Safety Net

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2301773/fan_mail/new] A divorce can expose one truth faster than almost anything: if you don’t have cash you can access today, you don’t have real options tomorrow.   In this episode, I share the idea that has been living rent-free in my head since hearing Jean Chatzky talk about it on Her Money [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/why-every-woman-needs-a-f-ck-off-fund-and-how/id1098802558?i=1000749217671]: “her safety net” a personal, liquid account in your name that exists before you ever need it. I walk through why this is not just an emergency fund for surprise expenses. A safety net fund changes how you make decisions at work, at home, and across the divorce table because it reduces panic and protects your ability to say no. You’ll hear a story from my professional experience about how short-term cash pressure and growing credit card debt can push someone to accept a long-term divorce settlement that isn’t truly fair, even when marital assets will eventually pay the bills. If this resonates, take one small step tonight, then subscribe, share the show with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more women can find financial clarity when it matters most. * To schedule a complimentary 30-minute consult with Jacki, Click Here [https://calendly.com/roessler-jacki/30min] Center for Financial Planning [https://www.centerfinplan.com/] Striving to Improve Lives Through Financial Planning Done Right! https://www.centerfinplan.com/ DAWN [https://womensrights.com/] Divorce Attorneys for Women: Michigan's Original Divorce Attorneys for Michigan Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Expert Roundtable: The House Standoff with Katherine Krysak Frampton, Esq., Brian Mutter, CDLP, Jodi Douglas, CDRE

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2301773/fan_mail/new] A 2.75% mortgage rate sounds like a gift until divorce turns it into a trap. We bring you a real case study from Northville, Michigan where the marital home is valued anywhere from $750,000 to $900,000, one spouse refuses to sell, and the other spouse wants their fair share of the equity. With two minor kids and a massive income gap, the question stops being “Who wants the house?” and becomes “What is legally possible, financially feasible, and emotionally smart?” We sit down with Katherine Frampton, Esq. (Michigan family law attorney), Brian Mutter, CDLP (divorce mortgage specialist), and Jodi Douglas, MS, CDRE™, RCS-D™ to compare how each professional sees the same problem. We talk candidly about what courts often do when couples cannot settle, why refinance deadlines and default protections matter, and the uncomfortable truth that a lender’s appraisal and underwriting rules do not care what your divorce agreement says the home is worth. You will also hear the lending realities that surprise most people: when child support and spousal support can count as income, the three-year continuance requirement, and why six months of documented receipt can affect your timeline. We close with practical first steps for the first 30 days so you can make a housing decision with eyes wide open, not just hope. Subscribe, share this with someone navigating a divorce and the marital home, and leave a review so more people can find these divorce financial planning and housing insights. * To reach out to Katherine Frampton, Esq. https://rubinframpton.com/katherine-frampton/ * To reach out to Brian Mutter, CDLP: https://www.goforwardmortgage.com/contact/ * To reach out to Jodi Douglas, MS, CDRE™, RCS-D™; https://www.howardhanna.com/Agent/Detail/Jodi-Douglas/67640 * To Listen to Our Primer Episode on this topic, click the link below https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-marital-home-in-divorce-experts-weigh-in-sell/id1735150222?i=1000702062111 Center for Financial Planning [https://www.centerfinplan.com/] Striving to Improve Lives Through Financial Planning Done Right! https://www.centerfinplan.com/ DAWN [https://womensrights.com/] Divorce Attorneys for Women: Michigan's Original Divorce Attorneys for Michigan Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Finish Line Whiplash and Divorce

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2301773/fan_mail/new] You’re finally at the end of your divorce, you sign the agreement, and for a moment you can breathe again. Then the doubt rushes in and it feels like your brain is replaying every conversation, every number, every “what if I went to trial” scenario. We call that finish line whiplash, and it’s one of the most common patterns I see after years of divorce financial analysis and divorce settlement support. The hard truth is that urgency to be done and panic after it’s done are both terrible places to evaluate major money decisions.  * Click here to book a complimentary consultation with Jacki by clicking here https://calendly.com/roessler-jacki/30min?month=2024-03 [https://calendly.com/roessler-jacki/30min?month=2024-03] * Click here to download your Post Divorce Gameplan worksheet https://www.roesslerdivorce.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/post-divorce-gameplan-fillable.pdf [https://www.roesslerdivorce.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/post-divorce-gameplan-fillable.pdf] Center for Financial Planning [https://www.centerfinplan.com/] Striving to Improve Lives Through Financial Planning Done Right! https://www.centerfinplan.com/ DAWN [https://womensrights.com/] Divorce Attorneys for Women: Michigan's Original Divorce Attorneys for Michigan Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
