The Divorce and Beyond® Podcast with Susan Guthrie, Esq.

For many people quietly navigating divorce season, one question lingers beneath the surface:

Is this just a rough season, or is this relationship truly over?

In this powerful and deeply honest episode of Divorce & Beyond, Susan Guthrie sits down with renowned psychotherapist Dr. Jenn Mann to explore how to tell the difference, and why clarity, not guilt, is often the most caring path forward.

Inspired by Dr. Jenn’s widely shared insight, “Not every relationship is meant to be saved,” this conversation goes far beyond the familiar stay-or-leave debate. Together, Susan and Dr. Jenn examine how therapy can sometimes help repair a marriage and other times provide the clarity needed to trust yourself enough to let go.

They discuss the emotional cost of staying too long, the deal breakers people often rationalize away, and why ending a marriage can be an act of courage and strength rather than failure.

This is a compassionate, nuanced conversation for anyone questioning what comes next.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

How to tell the difference between a rough season and a relationship that has truly run its course

Why therapy is not always about fixing the marriage, but often about gaining clarity

The deal breakers people ignore for years, including emotional unavailability and refusal to seek help

Why “staying for the kids” is far more complex than it sounds and what children actually absorb

How leaving a marriage can build confidence, resilience, and deeper self-trust

You signed the divorce agreement. You thought it was over.

But for many people, the real problems begin after the ink dries, when they discover that what they negotiated is not actually enforceable.

In this essential episode of Divorce & Beyond, Susan Guthrie is joined by Kelly Lise Murray, a nationally recognized legal scholar whose work focuses on what happens when divorce settlements fall apart in real life, particularly in cases involving homes, mortgages, retirement assets, and complex property divisions.

This conversation is especially important during divorce season, when many listeners are early in the process and assuming that reaching agreement automatically means protection. It does not.

What You’ll Learn

Why a signed divorce agreement does not guarantee you will receive what you were promised

How enforcement failures leave people owed money or assets they never receive

Why homes and retirement accounts are the highest-risk areas in divorce settlements

How missing deadlines and contingencies quietly undermine agreements

The questions you should ask your lawyer before signing anything

About the Guest

She earned her undergraduate degree Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford University and her law degree cum laude from Harvard Law School, and served for 18 years as faculty at a Top 20 U.S. law school.

Kelly is the Lead Investigator and Faculty Member for the National Family Court Project on Housing and Financial Justice, where her work focuses on preserving homeownership eligibility and financial stability in family disputes, including divorce, trusts, elder law, and probate matters.

Her expertise is grounded in real litigated cases involving enforcement failures, not theory. She is also the host of the Wealth Litigated Podcast.

It is Divorce Day. January 5, 2026. And if you are listening on the day this episode drops, divorce is everywhere. It is on the news, across social media, whispered in conversations, and quietly sitting in the background for many people as the holidays come to an end.

Here is a simple truth: Divorce Day creates more noise than clarity. This episode is designed to help you slow down, get oriented, and understand what actually matters on Day One.

In fact, after more than three decades as a divorce attorney and mediator, Susan Guthrie knows this truth better than anyone: Advice is loud. Opinions are everywhere. Much of what circulates today is designed to provoke urgency, fear, or dramatic action.

The biggest mistake people make on Divorce Day is believing this day requires action. It does not. What it requires is understanding.

In this grounded, compassionate solo episode, Susan walks listeners through the five things you need to know on Day One, sharing the foundational truths that separate people who navigate divorce intentionally from those who spend years undoing a rushed beginning.

If divorce is on your mind today, this episode offers clarity, steadiness, and permission to pause.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: 

Why Divorce Day is about readiness, not action, and how confusing the two leads to regret rather than relief.

Why information must come before strategy, and how accurate, jurisdiction-specific knowledge calms fear and prevents avoidable mistakes.

How the way divorce begins shapes everything that follows, including tone, communication, and long-term outcomes.

Why divorce is not one decision but a series of decisions, and how choosing how you decide matters more than deciding everything at once.

Why your divorce team matters more than you think, and how choosing the wrong professionals early can cost years of stress and unnecessary expense.

MORE SUPPORT:

If today’s episode resonated with you, Susan has also written a companion blog article titled Before You Say Anything: The Conversations That Can Make or Break Your Divorce, which explores why the earliest conversations often shape the entire divorce process. We have paired it with a free downloadable guide, Before You Say Anything: A Divorce Conversation Prep Guide, designed to help you slow down, choose your words intentionally, and protect your options before anything is filed. You can find them on the website at https://divorceandbeyondpod.com/Blog

MENTIONED EPISODES:

The Divorce & Beyond episode archive is designed to support you at the very beginning of this process, when questions feel overwhelming and clarity feels out of reach and as you move through your divorce journey.

Inside the archive, you will find conversations like:

Divorce Triage: Who to Call First and How to Build the Right Support Team with Susan Guthrie

”We Need to Talk:” How to Have the Most Difficult Conversation of Your Life with Kate Anthony

When Divorce Gets Messy: Why Litigation Is Sometimes the Only Answer with Leading Attorney, Marc Garelick

It is the quiet week between Christmas and New Year’s. The guests have gone home, the adrenaline has worn off, and you are likely left with a heavy realization: The holidays didn’t fix it.

If you are currently Googling "how to get a divorce" or secretly looking up attorneys while your spouse is in the other room, you are not alone. Next Monday, January 5th, is known in the legal industry as "Divorce Day," where inquiries skyrocket by 25%.

But before you make a call that you cannot unmake, Susan Guthrie has a message for you: Stop. Just breathe.

In this urgent and deeply practical solo episode, Susan reveals why the "smartest people" wait until March to file, and exactly what they do in January instead. Drawing on 35 years of practice, she breaks down the "Broken Promise" theory, the danger of the "New Year's Resolution Bomb," and why urgency is the enemy of a good divorce.

If you are feeling the pressure to act, this episode is your permission slip to pause, plan, and protect your future before you ever step foot in a courtroom.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

The "Broken Promise" Theory: Why the holidays amplify marital cracks rather than fixing them.

The January vs. March Strategy: Why amateurs rush to file in January, while strategists use the month for "vetting and verification".

The 3 Critical Questions: What you must ask yourself before you hire a professional (hint: do you know the "business reality" of your marriage?).

The "First Responder" Rule: Why your first call should almost never be to a lawyer—and who you should call instead.

The Financial Reality Check: The sobering statistic about the 41% drop in household income for women post-divorce and how to prevent it.

Mistakes to Avoid: Why hiring a "shark" out of fear is the fastest way to burn through $30,000+.

As Divorce & Beyond closes out 2025, Susan Guthrie welcomes back Trina Nudson for a powerful bookend conversation exploring BeAligned, a revolutionary AI-powered reflection platform designed to help parents regulate emotions, interrupt the cycle of conflict, and problem-solve with their children’s wellbeing at the center.

BeAligned is not another communication app, and it is not about getting co-parents to agree or behave perfectly. Instead, Trina explains how the platform meets parents where they are, supports emotional regulation in real time, and helps interrupt the conflict cycles that so often take over co-parenting relationships.

Susan and Trina also explore how even one parent can shift the entire family dynamic, why co-parenting is about awareness rather than perfection, and how using technology intentionally can make co-parenting easier during emotionally charged moments.

Why This Conversation Matters
Co-parenting is hard even in intact families. Add divorce, grief, fear, and conflict, and it can feel overwhelming. Many parents know what they should do but struggle to access those tools in the moment when emotions take over.

This conversation matters because BeAligned acknowledges the reality of human emotions and provides support in real time. It helps parents step out of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn, see the bigger picture, and create solutions that protect childhoods without relying on blame, shame, or court intervention.

You Will Learn:

Why it only takes one parent to shift the co-parenting dynamic

Why co-parenting is not about perfection, but about awareness and regulation

How BeAligned helps parents move from reaction to alignment and interrupt the cycle of conflict

How technology can support calmer communication without replacing attorneys, therapists, or coaches

Why focusing on children’s needs changes everything

Special Offer from Trina Nudson and BeAligned:

Trina is generously offering Divorce & Beyond listeners 90 days of free access to BeAligned using code BEYOND.  No credit card required. You’ll get full access to the platform’s reflection tools and support resources, and an invitation to share feedback that helps improve and expand its impact.

Visit http://BeAligned.app to get started.

About the Guest: 
Trina Nudson is a family law attorney, mediator, court-appointed guardian ad litem, child advocate, Certified Divorce Coach® (CDC®), Divorce Coaching Academy® graduate (DCA®), and Licensed Bachelor Social Worker with more than 25 years of experience in the trenches of high-conflict co-parenting and family systems.

She is the founder of The Layne Project, owner of My Child Advocate, PA, and the creator of the evidence-based BeH2O® co-parenting system and BeAligned™, an AI-powered reflection platform that helps parents move from reaction to alignment.

Across thousands of cases, Trina has worked alongside judges, attorneys, therapists, and schools to center children’s wellbeing while helping parents navigate some of the hardest seasons of their lives. Her mission is simple and non-negotiable: safeguarding childhoods by helping adults show up with clarity, steadiness, and purpose—especially when it’s hard.
