from Off the Fence with Karen Covy: Mastering Decision Making, Divorce & More · host Karen Covy

Conventional wisdom says that you shouldn’t leave your marriage until it has completely broken down. But what if that’s not true? What if leaving while you and your spouse still care about each other is the key to having a good divorce?When her marriage was floundering, Karen McNenny found herself paralyzed by fear. She didn’t want to give up on her marriage if it could be saved. But she didn’t want to wait until she and her ex hated each other before she left.That’s when she discovered a life-changing truth: leaving while there's still love can lead to a healthier post-divorce relationship than waiting until things completely fall apart.Karen has now created the "Good Divorce Experience."
