You’re getting divorced now what do you do? So many decisions to make, so much to fear and no one to help you tell you what to expect…until now. Every 2nd Tuesday, join Trish Guise, occasionally her husband Barry Guise, and various guests for a chat around the kitchen table about issues that range from deciding to separate all the way to coparenting your adult children. For 12 years, Trish was knee deep in a very difficult divorce and coparenting situation. She has experienced it all; domestic violence, coercive control, stalking, digital spying, threats, dating after separation, managing a blended family, step-parenting and she has worked with over 29 legal professionals during that time: 6 lawyers, 2 Parent Coordinators, 3 Mediator / Arbitrators, 1 Financial Advisor, 1 Forensic Accountant, 10 Therapists, 2 Reunification Therapists and 4 Judges, and her family is still undoing the damage.  Fast forward a few years and now Trish has made a living out of showing others how to avoid the mistakes she made and how to best advocate for themselves and their children.  Separation, divorce, co-parenting, single parenting, step-parenting, are all minefields that nobody prepares you for and its not something that she recommends you try on your own.  This podcast has a simple purpose; to give you a look ahead as to what you can expect, the barriers you may face and offer some ideas on how to minimize the damage a divorce can create.

    Coercive Control - What is it and what to do about it.

    Coercive Control - What is it and what to do about it.

    “Why is this happening to me and how do I make it stop?”I’ve lost count of the times someone has said that to me. I used to say it myself…until I learned what coercive control is and what I could do about it. The insidious coercive pattern of behaviors can turn even the most knowledgeable and independent person into a terrified, self-blaming, victim.  Coercive control has been running rampant through society for centuries…no one is immune…most just don’t know it’s happening or don’t know what it is and how to stop it. Highlights:What does coercive control look like?Warning signs / Red flags to watch for.Is coercive control illegal?The Courts: how they’ve handled coercive control & how they should handle it. Resources:Divorce Act Amendments Explained: (ACEs) Adverse Childhood Experiences explained: The Wild Truth: Children Exposed to Domestic Violence – Lundy Bancroft Criminalizing Coercive Control in CanadaOntario parents advocating for 'Keira's Law': it could have prevented alleged Sask. abduction | CBC Please leave a rating and review if you enjoy my podcast!Follow me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin. Submit topic suggestions or listener stories on my website http://www.trishguise.com/ FOLLOW Twitter       https://twitter.com/TrishGuiseLinkedIn    https://www.linkedin.com/in/trish-guise-b01756204/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/trishguisedivorcecoachFacebook  https://www.facebook.com/TrishGuiseDivorceCoachWebsite    http://www.trishguise.com/Publications, books, videos, panel discussions  https://linktr.ee/trishguise

    Things I Wish I Knew Before I Dated, Married and Had Kids - Part 1

    Things I Wish I Knew Before I Dated, Married and Had Kids - Part 1

    Things I Wish I Knew Before I Dated, Married and Had Kids – Part 1 “How could I have missed the signs? ““Why did I put up with all of that?” “How did I not see that things were only going to get worse?” I will tell you how you missed the signs, put up with things for so long and didn’t realize things were going to get worse…it’s difficult to see the bad when you are naturally inclined to see the good. Why would you assume that the person you love and is supposed to love you back, is trying to deceive you, manipulate you or control you? It becomes even harder to believe that when you loved one love-bombs you, plays the victim or shames you. In Part 1 of a 2 part series, I I share with you some real life examples of what red flags can look and sound like so you can go into every relationship with your eyes wide open. Not just your romantic relationships, relationships with family members, your friends and even at work. Coercion is everywhere and can happen to anyone at anytime  Highlights:Red Flags to watch for when dating.How minor behaviors can turn into red flags once children arrive.How red flag behavior can manifest itself post-separation. Please leave a rating and review if you enjoy my podcast!Follow me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin. Submit topic suggestions or listener stories on my website http://www.trishguise.com/ FOLLOW Twitter       https://twitter.com/TrishGuiseLinkedIn    https://www.linkedin.com/in/trish-guise-b01756204/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/trishguisedivorcecoachFacebook  https://www.facebook.com/TrishGuiseDivorceCoachWebsite    http://www.trishguise.com/Publications, books, videos, panel discussions  https://linktr.ee/trishguise
