That Angry Text Message Hit Too Close to Home

About this episode

You know the moment. You're about to fall asleep, you check your phone one last time, and there it is. A text that lights you up. You respond. It goes badly.

Corey shares a story he's not proud of and explains why boundaries aren't about your ex. They're about protecting yourself from your worst impulses when it matters most.

Plus one phone setting that puts you back in control.

You keep being reasonable, and it keeps being used against you. Every fair offer becomes the floor for a bigger demand. Every concession buys you nothing. That is a one-sided divorce, and it plays by different rules than the mutual divorce your friends went through.

Getting Divorced Without Losing Your Mind is for people living that divorce. Corey Shapiro has spent more than 25 years as a matrimonial attorney in high-conflict cases, and this show is where he explains the game: why staying calm is a weapon and not a weakness, what your spouse's attorney is actually doing, and how to stop reacting and start deciding.

Based on the book Getting Divorced Without Losing Your Mind. For when being reasonable stops working.
