    A bit more about Hayley.... There are many divorce coaches, however, Hayley Lisa is the only one who specializes in working with only men. She provides men with unbiased, unconditional support, guidance & accountability they need to gain clarity needed to make better decisions throughout their divorce process and after. Being a female for men, Hayley sets herself apart by being a strategic partner with the unbiased opinions of a woman, which gives her clients an advantage.

    Hayley believes that men have a significant disadvantage in divorce, especially in the family court system. It is her mission to “even the playing field” and give men a fighting chance with the uneven score board. Her hope is for her clients to have a peaceful, kinder divorce process, however, when that is not an option, she will tackle the issues they are facing such as co-parenting, high-conflict divorce and parental alienation head-on. Being divorced herself, she knows firsthand, the emotional and financial toll divorce takes on an individual. It is through her ten years of experience, education, and tools, that she helps men navigate the choppy waters of divorce by being an unconditional support system to her clients.

    “Divorce is never a weekday 9-5 issue, which is why I will always show-up for my clients regardless of the day of the week it is, including holidays”

    A bit about Jen Mitchell, Esq. Jen Mitchell is a family law attorney in Illinois, with 14 years of experience. Jen practiced as a litigation attorney for the first 9 years of her career, serving as the zealous advocate to her clients and advocating for their best interests. After having three children in 39 months, Jen realized that her role in a fundamentally broken family law litigation system was destroying children, families, and people, with the negative effects expanding to the World. As such, Jen referred all of her litigation cases out and started to focus on creating a NEW way to help couples go through the emotionally difficult divorce process. She created Solace Divorce Mediation, which offers a proprietary process that helps couples restructure their relationship from “married” to “friends” or “co-parents” with a solid foundation of communication, trust, and respect. Divorce is just as much a legal process as it is an emotional process.

    Having gone through her own divorce in August 2019, Jen knows how difficult the emotional roller coaster can be and how important it is to create a strong co-parenting relationship for the benefit of your family. Jen incorporates her life coaching skills into her process to provide valuable resources and tools for clients to utilize that enable them to learn as much as they can about themselves, heal from past traumas and experiences that are blocking them, and grow into the people they were meant to be! Jen is committed to changing the way people view and experience divorce, empowering couples to embrace their power as the absolute best authorities to determine what is in the best interest of their children and a fair and equitable manner to divide the marital property that they worked so hard to accumulate; and encouraging clients to use this difficult time as an opportunity to grow!
