    Navigating Narcissism: Unpacking Complex Relationships With Fauzia Faizi Shah

    Attorneys Elizabeth Stephenson, Sarah J. Hink, and Tyler E. Kaestner of New Direction Family Law talk with mental health professional Fauzia Faizi Shah about complex PTSD and narcissistic personality disorder and how these dynamics commonly surface in separation, divorce, and custody cases. Shah describes narcissistic traits and tactics such as gaslighting (changing someone’s reality), love-bombing and trauma bonding, boundary violations, manipulation, isolation, strength-shaming, and the repeating abuse cycle, and explains how victims may appear depressed or use substances as coping while the narcissistic partner thrives. The conversation focuses on protecting children, who may become “performers” for narcissistic parents, and on educating judges through seasoned evaluations and parenting capacity assessments, recommending supervised visitation when appropriate, therapy for children and the targeted parent, and legal boundaries like structured communication and parenting coordinators. Shah shares that her forthcoming book and online resources address complex PTSD, neurobiology, attachment, and healing. 00:00 Kids as Performers 00:47 Podcast Introductions 01:29 Book on Complex PTSD 02:26 Spotting Narcissism 03:49 Gaslighting Explained 04:31 Trauma Bond Cycle 06:16 Abuse and Control 07:29 Leaving and Safety 07:54 Evaluations and Court 14:15 Co Parenting Challenges 16:07 Protecting the Children 18:01 Courtroom Facades 21:41 Custody Battle Tactics 22:53 Coping Not Crazy 23:32 DV Mental Health Toll 24:04 Why It Feels Normal 24:56 Neurobiology And Attachment 26:32 Lawyer Strategy And Therapy 27:35 Breaking Trauma Bonds 29:45 Are Narcissists Increasing 30:35 Resources And New Book 31:37 Complex PTSD Explained 32:47 Boundaries And Legal Shields 34:33 Final Warnings Love Bombing

    The Complexities of Co-Parenting: A Legal Perspective

    Attorneys Sarah Hink and Elizabeth Stevenson return from a hiatus on the Exit Strategy podcast to discuss why custody is often the hardest part of divorce and separation, including the emotional challenge of sharing time with children. They explain that in the North Carolina counties where they practice, courts often start from a 50/50 assumption tied to the child’s best interests and a relationship with both parents, then look for reasons to deviate such as domestic violence, substance abuse, mental health concerns, lack of involvement, or inconsistency. They cover tools like temporary arrangements, tiered custody schedules with treatment requirements, reunification therapy, custody/parent fitness evaluations, guardians ad litem, parent coordinators, and parallel parenting. They warn against false abuse claims, alienation, and putting children in the middle, noting records can follow families and even be found online later. 00:00 Welcome Back Intro 00:20 Why Custody Gets Heated 00:43 Facing 50 50 Reality 01:57 Courts Start at 50 50 02:40 Give Them a Chance 03:32 Custody Can Change 04:00 Tiered Plans and Reunification 05:35 Evaluations and Expert Help 06:55 Parallel Parenting Tools 07:31 Kids Feel the Conflict 08:57 Legal Custody Decision Making 09:42 Third Parties Can Sue 10:11 Domestic Violence Impact 11:10 False Claims Backfire 11:56 Online Records and Kids Testifying 13:23 Parental Alienation Consequences 14:08 Honesty and Realistic Outcomes 16:08 Wrap Up and Final Thoughts

    Divorce Decisions: Understanding North Carolina's Property Division

    Family law attorneys Sarah Hink and Elizabeth Stevenson of New Direction Family Law discuss North Carolina equitable distribution in divorce, emphasizing that most marital property and debt acquired from the date of marriage to the date of separation is typically divided 50/50, regardless of whose name it’s in, with values generally set as of separation. They explain separate property carve-outs (inheritances kept separate, premarital retirement/house interests) and when debts may be treated as separate (not benefiting the marriage). They warn against trying to manipulate accounts or incurring debt right before separation, and note most cases settle in required mediation if parties avoid “nickel-and-diming” personal property. They also highlight practical issues with houses, refinancing, credit risk, and the need to address property claims before an absolute divorce, which can waive equitable distribution rights. 00:00 Mediation Pitfalls 00:35 Meet the Attorneys 00:57 Equitable Distribution Basics 02:01 Marital Property Freeze Frame 02:33 Unequal Splits and Misconduct 03:44 Separate Property Exceptions 05:02 Messy Assets and Businesses 05:44 DIY Agreements and Prenups 06:41 Pets and Personal Property 07:17 Mediation and Nickel Dime Fights 09:39 Home Values and Letting Go 11:32 Debt Division and Credit Risks 14:06 Bankruptcy and Final Warnings

    Divorce Survival Guide: Common Mistakes to Avoid

    Family law attorneys Elizabeth Stevenson and Sarah Hink of New Direction Family Law discuss common mistakes people make during separation and divorce, emphasizing that emotions can lead to regrettable decisions. They warn that social media posts, texts, DMs, and even posts by friends or family can be used in court, and note North Carolina is a one-party consent state where conversations may be legally recorded if the recorder is a participant. They advise clients to follow attorney guidance, timely provide required financial and other documents, and avoid hiding information. They caution against relying on “Google law degrees” or AI-generated content, which can be inaccurate and costly to review. They also stress avoiding reckless behavior (partying, DUIs), maintaining credibility with the judge, and being honest about finances and other issues. 00:00 One Party Consent Warning 00:35 Meet The Divorce Attorneys 01:12 Social Media Can Sink You 02:10 Texts DMs And Friends 04:02 Recording Rules Explained 04:41 Follow Legal Advice And Disclose 05:39 Bad Advice And AI Pitfalls 07:17 Reckless Behavior And Custody 09:11 Honesty And Credibility In Court 11:24 Money Mistakes And Hidden Assets 12:16 Wrap Up Key Takeaways 13:06 Final Sign Off
