  • Welcome back to the "Do Divorce Right" podcast! In today's episode, I've got a game-changing technique to share that can help you tackle overwhelm when life gets crazy. The 4D method. It's simple but powerful:

    Delegate: Get your support system involved. Let others help where they can.Delay or Defer: Not everything is urgent. Schedule tasks for a more manageable time.Delete: Some things aren't essential. Cross them off your list and free up mental space.Do: Block time for must-dos. Start small to build momentum, then tackle bigger tasks.

    I share this with clients, and actively use this technique myself.  It works wonders. Give it a try, and let me know how it goes!

  • As a child, Danielle (Dani) Zetzer was the child of a traumatic divorce and became hugely motivated to support families to ‘do divorce differently’ - or Do Divorce Right if you will ;-)

    Dani now leads a successful family law practice with offices in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia and recently found herself in the position of having to navigate her own divorce. 

    Listen in to learn that - even when you’ve seen the best and worst of divorce - it’s *still* possible to make mistakes. But with a healthy dose of personal responsibility, self-reflection and huge amounts of compassion, Dani continues to learn and support her family to  successfully re-design their lives together and apart. Including dating and introducing new partners. 

    Becca and Dani talk about the challenges of being modern women who’ve been led to believe that we can ‘have it all’ and the dynamics created by this, which can make it difficult for someone to be in a relationship with us! Both during a marriage and when we are ready to start dating again.

    And can you imagine what it’s like to begin dating again when you’re a family lawyer?

  • In this special episode, Becca invites Kelly Webb, a friend, to share her story about navigating a positive divorce and co-parenting. Kelly and Becca initially met as moms in the schoolyard and discovered they had a lot in common.

    Kelly talks about her decision to divorce her husband after years of struggling in their marriage. Despite facing challenges and making the tough decision to end their marriage, she maintains a friendly relationship with her ex-husband for the sake of their children, especially because they need to support their eldest who suffers with significant mental health challenges.

    The conversation delves into the importance of maintaining a civil relationship with an ex-spouse and how to handle emotional moments. Kelly shares her experiences and lessons learned from this journey, including finding emotional and financial independence through her side business with Thermomix.

    Becca and Kelly both strongly believe in the value of female friendships, the beauty and empowerment of personal rediscovery after a divorce and the importance of acting with integrity and emotional maturity throughout the process.

    Kelly’s journey is an excellent example of thriving at divorce and the ability to create a life by design.

  • Welcome back to another episode of “Do Divorce Right Podcast”. In this episode, we are focusing on "The Importance Of Fabulous Women Around You”, a topic that is very close to my heart. This topic has been on my mind lately, and it has been fueled by a recent experience I had at a business launch event, as well as my personal journey in developing and cherishing female friendships. I delve into the unique attributes that make female friendships so special, particularly the aspects of emotional intimacy and vulnerability that often define them.

    Drawing from my own life, I shared some personal experiences. There have been times when I leaned more towards male friendships, finding them interesting for their directness and different dynamics. However, as I have grown, I have come to realize the high value of connecting with supportive women. This is especially suitable during challenging life transitions, such as divorce.

    I highlight the importance of female friendships and the incredible support they can provide during tough times. In fact, I'm excited to announce that I'm in the process of launching a membership designed specifically for women going through divorce. This community will offer a safe and supportive space for women to connect, share experiences, and empower one another during this significant life change.
