Why Does Collaborative Divorce Seem Like Such a Contradiction

March 15, 2022 By Nanci Smith

January 18, 2022 By Nanci Smith

When it comes to divorce, movies tend to get a lot of things wrong. That’s what was so refreshing about Marriage Story, Noah Baumbach’s film about a couple coming apart at the seams. Everything isn’t exactly as it would happen in real life, but it rings true in a lot of ways. There’s one situation that the movie captured perfectly.

Handling the Stress of the Holidays

November 16, 2021 By Nanci Smith

If we believe the movies that always seem to come out this time of year, the holidays are a time to relax, recharge, and reflect on all the good things that happened over the previous 12 months. We get together with family and friends to exchange gifts, admire our beautifully decorated homes, and enjoy meals that took hours to prepare.  We all know that it isn’t always true.
