Been There. Got Out. When Leaving Isn’t the End Ft. Lisa Johnson
from An Imperfectly Perfect Life with Shari Leid · host Shari Leid
What really happens after you file for divorce differs for everyone -- and can be incredibly challenging for those who are leaving a toxic partner. Why do custody battles and high-conflict divorces continue long after the relationship ends? In this episode of An Imperfectly Perfect Life, Shari Leid talks with Lisa Johnson, co-founder of Been There. Got Out. Lisa spent years navigating a high-conflict divorce, representing herself against her former, much wealthier, spouse - through the chaos of a complex legal system, Lisa now works with clients around the world who are dealing with toxic relationships, legal abuse, and exhausting custody disputes. This conversation explores what legal abuse looks like, why leaving doesn’t always bring relief, and how people can regain clarity, confidence, and agency when systems feel overwhelming and unfair. It’s an honest, validating discussion for anyone rebuilding their life after divorce, emotional trauma, or long-term conflict. If you’ve ever wondered why getting out didn’t mean it was over, this episode will help you understand why - and what comes next.
