EP 21: Keep Calm and Collaborate On: A Collaborative Divorce Conversation

Jennifer L. Grinke and Dana J. Stewart

Is there a way to divorce that doesn't involve court battles, scorched earth tactics, or drained bank accounts? On this episode of Sidebar Social, hosts Jennifer L. Grinke and Dana J. Stewart sit down with Katie Zuverink—licensed counselor and seasoned neutral mental health professional in the collaborative divorce process—to break it all down. Katie shares what collaborative divorce really is (spoiler: it's not couples therapy), how it works, who it works best for, and the surprising ways it can lead to better outcomes for families. Whether you're a fellow family law pro or just curious about alternatives to litigation, this episode delivers insight, laughs, and some serious myth-busting. Because sometimes, breaking up doesn’t have to mean breaking down.
