Description

When the gloves come off in divorce court, Lois Liberman (https://www.blankrome.com/people/lois-j-liberman) brings empathy, grit, and a wicked sense of humor. In this Dancing in the Discomfort Zone episode, the powerhouse attorney with 36 years in matrimonial law spills the truth about what really goes down when love unravels—and how to come out stronger.

Always striving to reduce her clients “emotional capital expenditure,” Lois helps clients stop wasting energy on battles that don’t matter and start focusing on healing, growth, and what’s next. She’s part therapist, part strategist, part truth-teller, and yes—she keeps voodoo dolls in her office for comic relief.

From high-profile cases to heartbreak over antique mirrors, Lois has seen it all. But behind every fight, she finds humanity, humor, and the possibility of a better future. Her “Look Ahead with Lois Liberman” initiative gives real-world advice on co-parenting with narcissists, rebuilding finances, and rediscovering yourself after divorce.  (find Look Ahead here!  https://www.linkedin.com/in/loisliberman/)

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Why fighting over “principle” is the most expensive habit in divorce
  • The emotional stages of grieving a marriage (and how to move forward)
  • How to tell when control crosses into coercion
  • Why she believes divorce can be a rebirth, not just an ending

If you’ve ever faced heartbreak, conflict, or reinvention, this conversation will change how you see endings—and the power that comes after them.
