She has never looked back.In this episode Jackie opens up about almost choosing journalism over law, being voted kindest and best personality in a graduating class of over 1100 kids, why she reframes divorce not as an ending but as a reorganization of a family, the moment a husband broke down crying in mediation and everything finally moved forward, what it really takes to keep people solution focused when emotions are running the show, Sunday mornings frying meatballs while her husband coaches high school football, their home in Maine that keeps the whole family grounded, and why she just joined the board of directors at the Nassau County Bar Association.If you are going through a divorce, considering mediation over litigation, or looking for a more collaborative approach to family law — this conversation will change how you think about the entire process.📲 Connect with Jacqueline Caputo: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacqueline-caputo-21493218/🌐 Joseph Law Group: https://josephlawpc.com/Watch more episodes and connect with Denisa here: https://tovaretirement.com/podcast/LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/denisatovaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/denisatovaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/denisatova/Podcast Production by HypeCats.com, webinars, and podcasts: https://hypecats.com.
