About this episode
In today’s Divorce 101 A to Z episode of Divorce Happens, Olivia Howell breaks down the concept of a divorce timeline — one of the most grounding and helpful tools in the divorce process. Brought to you by the letter T and the number 6, this episode walks listeners through the six common stages of divorce: consideration, preparation, filing, negotiation, resolution, and implementation.
Listeners learn why timelines matter, how they reduce overwhelm, and how emotional timelines often unfold differently from legal ones. Olivia also provides a simple reflection exercise to help listeners identify the six steps they anticipate in their own journey.
This episode is ideal for anyone beginning the divorce process, planning ahead, or needing clarity about what comes next.
