    2026/07/28
    On today’s episode of Uncoupled and Unfiltered, I sit down with Stacey Mendelson — a woman who didn't just survive a high-conflict divorce; she reverse-engineered it.Stacey went in blindsided, abused, and completely unprepared for what family court was about to put her through. She came out the other side with primary custody, sole decision-making authority, and a financial settlement that actually secured her future. Now she takes other people's chaos and turns it into strategy.We're going there. The topics nobody wants to touch, the truths nobody tells you when you're in the thick of it, the stuff that actually matters when everything is on the line — and we are not holding back or sugarcoating a single word.Key Topics Covered:Custody assessments in high conflict dynamics — the mistakes moms make that can cost them their children, and what it actually takes to walk in preparedWhat judges really see — not the theory, the realityHow to choose the right attorney for a high conflict case, because the wrong one doesn't just lose your case, they can destroy itThe mediation myth — is it even possible when you're trying to divorce someone who has been terrorizing you?What you must know and do before you file — because the preparation phase is where cases are won and lost before they even beginTo call or not to call the police — the answer is not what you thinkWhat winning actually looks like for the person who is breaking free and building forward“Do not go through a custody assessment without being coached by somebody who really knows this arena, because it is fraught with landmines.” - Stacey MendelsonAbout Our Guest: Stacey MendelsonStacey Mendelson didn't just survive a high-conflict divorce — she reverse-engineered it.
