The Book. The Lessons. The Next Step.

Divorce is expensive enough. Do not make it worse with avoidable mistakes.

I spent 41 months and more than $70,000 learning that lesson the hard way. I wrote Simplify the Split to share what I wish I knew on day one—and now I help people prepare for mediation with clearer priorities, better questions, and a practical plan.

Educational and organizational support only. Not legal, financial, tax, or mental health advice.

The Foundation

The book came first for a reason.

Simplify the Split is the framework behind everything here. It is built from the mistakes, lessons, mindset shifts, and practical strategies I learned during a 41-month divorce.

The goal is not to tell you how your case should end. It is to help you think more clearly, communicate more intentionally, protect what matters, and stop spending time and money on battles that do not improve your future.

Featured Conversation

“Divorce Is Expensive. Here’s How Not to Make It Worse.”

I joined The Back 9: Midlife, Best Life for a candid conversation about the lessons behind the book—why emotion gets expensive, why every battle is not worth fighting, and how to make decisions with your future in mind.

When the video version is released, a short highlight clip can replace this audio-first presentation.

Choose the Right Starting Point

Not everyone needs the same next step.
