Why the Divorce System Is Broken—and How to Protect Yourself

Most people don’t realize this—there are 5 ways to get divorced. But the one most people default to? It’s often the most damaging.

In this episode, I speak with Entrepreneur Vicky Townsend, founder of Divorce Right and Bridgewell, who has spent decades transforming how families—especially first responders and professionals—navigate one of life’s most stressful transitions.

We talk about:

• Why the current divorce system is outdated and broken
• The 5 divorce options most people don’t know they have
• How trauma and stress impact first responder marriages
• What corporate leaders can do to support employees facing divorce
• How to protect your finances, mental health, and family during tough transitions

This isn’t just a conversation about divorce—it’s a roadmap for how to approach it with clarity, strength, and support.
