In this episode of the FLiP podcast, Senior Associate Hannah Greene and FLiPâs in-house Divorce Consultant and Individual & Relationship Therapist Jo Harrison discuss how couples can manage their mental load once they separate.
In this wide-ranging discussion, Hannah and Jo look at how tasks within a relationship are often divided and the impact a separation may have on mental load as individuals seek to resume roles which they may have relinquished during the relationship. There is an acknowledgement that many separated parents wish to be seen as a âcompetent parentâ as they move into the next chapter of their lives, but this can be hard and it can take some adjustment.
Jo suggests that the key to managing the transition successfully is goodwill and fostering a good relationship through communication and an acknowledgement of the contribution their former partner has made and is making: âThe better that you get on with your former partner, the easier it will be.â
Hannah and Jo discuss the importance of building trust and sharing information with an acceptance that this can often take time to develop. Tread carefully and delicately, and think about your communication in terms of timing and tone. Appreciate and accept that your former partner may do things differently.

In this episode of the FLiP podcast, FLiP Director Helen Greenfield, leads a discussion with Chantal Hughes, Chief Executive at The Hampton Trust on the topic of domestic abuse and working with victims and perpetrators. Helen and Chantal cover a wide range of points such as:
Who is referred to The Hampton Trust. The interventions offered by The Hampton Trust such as Project CARA. The language surrounding domestic abuse and coercive control. The stigma encompassing domestic abuse. The impacts of abuse on a family, in particular children who as defined by The Domestic Abuse Bill can also be victims of domestic abuse, with reference to the BBC documentary featuring Ian Wright which The Hampton Trust were involved with. Whether victims feel reassured by perpetrator support work and whether it can be said it is a safeguarding system for the victims.About the Speakers
The Hampton Trust was founded in 1996 to deliver domestic violence perpetrator programmes within the criminal justice system. They have developed community based interventions for families experiencing domestic abuse alongside providing innovative criminal justice response.
Chantal Hughes has been part of The Hampton Trust since 2006 where she joined as the Domestic Abuse Services Manager before progressing to Deputy Chief Executive. She took a 4-month sabbatical in 2011 to work for a charity providing rehabilitation to street children in one of the largest slums in Africa and remains connected to the work in Kenya.
Taking up the role of CEO in 2013, Chantal has led the expansion of a range of domestic abuse and criminal justice interventions. She remains firmly committed to tackling the root cause of domestic abuse by holding perpetrators to account and ensuring the voice of victims and children are at the forefront of the work.
Helen Greenfield advises on all matters relating to family breakdown, divorce and cohabitation. She has a particular interest in helping those who have been affected by domestic abuse. Domestic abuse can include anything from isolating a person from their friends and family, monitoring their time or taking control over aspects of their everyday life (such as where they can go, who they can see, what to wear, their finances or when they can sleep. It can also include threats to hurt, to kill or even physical assault).
Helen recognises that the legal implications of domestic abuse are accompanied by a plethora of emotional and other issues, and she aims to ensure that clients are able to work through them with the right advice and support.

In this podcast Kara Swift, a Senior Associate at Family Law in Partnership, and Michael Edwards, a Barrister at 4PB who specialises in international children law particularly child abduction, examine the issues that separated parents need to think about if they are planning to take their children on holiday, in particular from England & Wales.
Kara and Michael underline the importance of abiding by the terms of any order that the Court has already made in relation to the children, and to try to reach an agreement away from the courts if at all possible. They look at the general view of the Family Courts towards separated parents taking their children on holiday, and offer practical steps that separated parents can take if they are in agreement to ensure that everything runs smoothly.
There are times when agreement might not be possible and they consider the importance of carrying out a thorough risk assessment, weighing up factors such as:
Who do the children live with? Who has their passports? Where is the other parent planning to travel to? Is this a country which is party to the Hague Convention*? Are there signs that this might be more than a temporary trip?Where a parent has concerns about the intentions of the other parent, Kara and Michael emphasise the importance of acting quickly and getting specialist legal advice on the best way forward. They look at the range of orders that a Court could make before the children travel, and what could be done if the children have already been taken abroad.
*Hague Convention 1980 â contracting parties https://www.hcch.net/en/instruments/conventions/status-table/?cid=24
