Before You File for Divorce, Do These 5 Things — A Divorce Expert's Guide to Starting on Solid Ground with Ron Platt, founder of the National Association for Single & Divorced Families

No one hands you a roadmap when your marriage ends. You're expected to make some of the biggest legal, financial, and emotional decisions of your life at the exact moment you have the least capacity to make them — and most of us walk in completely unprepared. That's the gap Ron Platt set out to close. In this practical, reassuring episode of Divorce Happens, we hear from Ron Platt, co-founder and CEO of NASDF — the National Association for Single and Divorced Families — for five fresh, foundational tips to help you prepare for divorce and walk out the other side standing on steadier ground. With more than 35 years across insurance, real estate, and social advocacy, and lived experience as a foster parent who later adopted his son, Ron built NASDF to be the resource he wished every divorcing family had: an umbrella of vetted support, services, and community for people before, during, and long after the paperwork is signed.🔗 Check out Fresh Starts Registry:The first & only divorce registry + support platform ➡ https://www.freshstartsregistry.com/📱 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/freshstartsregistry/📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FreshStartsRegistry🎙 Podcast IG: https://www.instagram.com/divorcehappenspod/📬 Magazine: https://divorceguidemagazine.com/
