Divorce coaching may seem like just another form of life coaching, offering only optimism and motivation during tough times. As a result, many might view it as an unnecessary luxury, especially when facing other high legal fees and financial strain. However, skilled divorce coaches are trained in conflict resolution strategies that lead to a quicker and fairer divorce process.

Myth #1. "I should get more money because my ex is being unfair since they have a high-paid job and can make all kinds of money"

Recognize that fairness is subjective. Both parties often believe they are being reasonable, but emotions and personal biases cloud judgment.

Shift your focus from proving you’re right to finding a resolution that works for both parties. Ask yourself: What outcome is realistic and will allow both sides to move forward peacefully?

Avoid labeling your ex as "greedy." Instead, approach the negotiation with curiosity: “What are their real priorities, and where is there room for compromise?”
