How do you prepare for a difficult conversation with your former spouse without becoming triggered, defensive, or overwhelmed?

After divorce, conversations with a former spouse can bring up anxiety, old emotions, and difficult memories. But you can prepare yourself so you can stay calm, clear, grounded, and confident, even when the conversation takes an unexpected turn.

You'll learn:

How to identify the key points and goals of your conversation
Why practicing what you want to say can build confidence
How to separate your current goals from stories about your past marriage
How to schedule and prepare for the conversation
How visualization can help you mentally prepare
How breathing techniques can help calm your nervous system
What to do when your former spouse says something that throws you off track
How to bring the conversation back to the original goal
How to communicate with a calm, clear, neutral tone
How to avoid becoming angry, defensive, or accusatory

You cannot control how your former spouse will respond, but you can control how you prepare and how you respond.
