Sane Split

<p>I am AJ Jakubowska - Family Law Lawyer, Family Mediator & Parenting Coordinator. I have worked in this field for over 28 years. Just like you, I am also human. I understand what can happen when relationships end. Lots of uncertainty, many different emotions coming in waves, questions swirling like confetti. Anger, disappointment, mistrust. Sometimes it may feel like it’s virtually impossible to stay sane. This podcast features my comments on various topics related to separation, and my interviews with other humans who help when relationships end – people who look after legal issues, who mediate, who look after hearts and minds, and the pocketbook too. What you will hear is not legal advice. These are dialogues primarily about the human aspect of separation. We try to stay away from legal lingo. It’s humans talking to humans. I hope that something you hear will help you navigate your way to a sane split. New episodes every two weeks.</p>
