When being in a relationship with a MAP… A manipulative abusive partner, whether it is a narcissist or a character disordered person… you want the pain to end quickly and it’s so easy to focus on divorce only.

In this episode we discuss the differences between separation and divorce, how easy it is to overlook the importance of preparing and how to re-focus on the separation as a potential strategic entry into divorce.
