430. What Happens When the Divorce Lawyer Becomes the Client with Stacy D. Phillips

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I sit down with the incredible Stacy D. Phillips—celebrity divorce lawyer, author, and podcast host—to talk about what really changes when the lawyer becomes the client.    Stacy shares openly about her two divorces, including one from an alcoholic partner, and how those experiences transformed not only her personal life, but how she practices law. We unpack everything from how addiction can silently warp a relationship, to why prenups matter more than you think, and the emotional cost of carrying everything on your own.   Resources Mentioned: Divorce: It's All About Control: https://www.stacydphillipsesq.com/my-book The Confident Coach Certification Waitlist is the ONLY certification specifically for divorced moms who want overcome imposter syndrome and finally feel legit: https://products.ambershaw.com/certification Join the waitlist for ReNewU: https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist Higher Infrared Sauna Blanket use code AMBER 15: https://higherdose.com/products/infrared-sauna-blanket   What We Discuss: 01:34 How going through divorce changed how Stacy practices law 02:43 The hard truths about our legal system (and what needs to change) 04:54 Why Stacy decided to stop playing small and start living unapologetically 06:40 The kind of support divorced women actually need 10:54 What healing really looks like when you're rebuilding your life 19:28 Getting back into relationships and why therapy matters 23:37 How to stay grounded when emotions and legal stuff collide 25:59 Why every woman should be talking about prenups (yes, really) 28:09 Letting go of control and learning to trust yourself again 30:55 The biggest lessons divorce taught us both 35:20 How to surround yourself with strong women who get it 39:33 Masculine vs. feminine energy—finding your balance   Find more from Stacy D.
