Description

When most people think of divorce, they think of courtrooms, documents, and signatures. But let me be clear: divorce is more than just paperwork. The decisions made around custody, support agreements, and co-parenting aren’t just legal steps — they have lasting emotional, financial, and relational consequences.

In this episode, I’m joined by Family Law Attorney Maiya Safikovs — a powerhouse legal mind known for her strategic insight and deeply compassionate approach. Maiya helps individuals navigate the divorce process with clarity, strength, and care. Together, we break down the legal realities of divorce, from parenting plans and custody structures to common myths about child and spousal support. We also discuss how to choose the right attorney — and why the decisions you make now will have a lasting impact on your future.

Whether you're early in the process, navigating co-parenting challenges, or revisiting support agreements, this conversation offers the clarity and wisdom you need to make informed, empowered decisions.
