Susan Guthrie welcomes special guest Marcia Zug, a family law expert and law professor, to discuss the move to repeal no-fault divorce laws. As reform proposals emerge across several states, this conversation explores what a shift back to fault-based divorce could mean for individuals, families, and the legal system.
Marcia offers insights into the history of no-fault divorce, the forces behind this legislative push, and the potential impacts on personal freedom, safety, and family dynamics. Tune in for an eye-opening look at the fight to preserve no-fault divorce and the disastrous implications for your rights and future.
Featured Topics:
Understanding the difference between fault divorce and no-fault divorce and what each requiresThe origins of no-fault divorce laws and how California became the first state to pass them in 1969The impact of repealing no-fault divorce, including its wider social and political implicationsThe future of no-fault divorce, the momentum behind repeal efforts, and whether there are movements to protect or expand these lawsGolden nuggets:
“If we want more people to get married, I think they need to understand both what marriage does for them and how it might be beneficial, but also not scare them by locking them into a marriage that they could never get out of.”“By forcing people to rehash all of the horrible things that have gone on in the marriage, it brings a lot of animosity to the divorce and makes negotiation and compromises much, much harder.”“ Even though cruelty was grounds for divorce, it wasn't protecting victims of violence in marriages. No-fault was seen as a solution to that. States reluctantly accepted it, not because they liked divorce, but because they recognized that it was needed because divorce to fault grounds was deadly, particularly to women.”****************************************

Her latest book, You'll Do: A History of Marrying for Reasons Other than Love explores the instrumental use of marriage and the role of marriage in modern society.

Beverly Price reveals the invisible scars that complicate healing during and after divorce for abuse victims in this powerful Domestic Violence Awareness Month episode of Divorce & Beyond.
Susan Guthrie sits down with Beverly Price, a divorce coach and advocate for domestic violence survivors, to uncover the harsh realities of how divorce can re-traumatize victims. Together, they explore how untrained divorce professionals and legal abuse can exacerbate the trauma of domestic violence. Plus, Beverly shares critical advice on creating a safety exit plan, building support systems, and why trauma-informed care is essential.
Featured topics:
The various ways divorce can re-introduce trauma for those already traumatized in their relationshipUnintentional re-traumatization by professionals not versed in domestic violence and how to encourage victims to seek trauma-informed expertsUnderstanding legal abuse and how abusers can continue to manipulate and control throughout the legal processThe importance of trauma counseling to help victims process and heal from their experiencesHow to find a trauma-informed divorce coach and the impact of having the right supportNavigating personal turmoil, regret, and shame while going through divorce after being victimizedThe necessity of creating a safe exit plan—especially because 70% of women are murdered when leaving an abusive relationshipGolden nuggets:“There's a process that can happen that takes a person from being traumatized to then going through divorce and being re-traumatized. It's the action of, in some cases, facing the abuser, whether it's in mediation or whether it's in litigation. That in itself can be terrible.”“You didn't cause it. I've been working with a woman for almost a year to watch her get stronger and not blame herself. But it takes work because if you think about it, all the years that you were subject to it [the abuse], you're not going to flip a switch and all of a sudden feel confident and feel like it's not your fault. But it is the abuser's fault. He's not doing it to you. He's doing it for himself.”

Kate Anthony is back, right in her wheelhouse, guiding you through one of the most challenging decisions you'll ever face: Is there still hope for your relationship, or is it time to move on? On average, people spend four years agonizing over whether to stay or go. That's four years of wondering, trying, giving up, and trying again. But Kate understands the complexity of this decision, and she’s here to help you navigate it with clarity and confidence.
In this deep and insightful conversation, Susan and Kate explore the emotional and practical aspects of deciding whether to stay in a relationship or move forward. Whether you're dealing with clear signs like abuse, adultery, or addiction, or you're struggling with the slow drip of uncertainty, Kate's wisdom will resonate with you. She not only helps people make this difficult decision but also supports them in crafting a plan for the future if the decision is to go.

She is also the author of the bestselling book, "The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision About Your Marriage"
For the last decade she has worked with hundreds of women all over the world, helping them make the most difficult decision of their lives and transition out of toxic marriages.

Diving back into the archive for a replay of Part Two of our special two-part episode with Dr. Christine Cocchiola, a leading expert in Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) that delves into some of the most insidious forms of abuse: coercive control and post-separation abuse.
In part two of this special two-part episode on Domestic Abuse, we delve deeper into a form of intimate partner violence (IPV) that's gaining attention in the media through high-profile cases like those of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, and Johnny Depp and Amber Heard: Post-Separation Abuse. Dr. Christine Cocchiola, a survivor and advocate, returns to further our understanding of this often covert and insidious form of abuse. While physical abuse is more overt and recognizable, Post-Separation Abuse encompasses tactics of coercive control and emotional manipulation that can continue to affect victims long after a relationship has ended. In part one, Dr. Cocchiola explored coercive control extensively. Now, she educates us on the varied manifestations of Post-Separation Abuse and highlights its dangers, emphasizing the need for awareness and support for those trapped in this destructive cycle.

Diving back into the archive for a replay of our special two-part episode with Dr. Christine Cocchiola, a leading expert in Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) that delves into some of the most insidious forms of abuse: coercive control and post-separation abuse.
Abuse between intimate partners comes in many forms. All are destructive, but some are so insidious and pervasive that they are incredibly common, yet vastly unknown by the public and often, in fact, by the victims themselves. With physical violence and abuse, it is very easy to identify that behavior is abusive, but when it comes to coercive control and emotional abuse, it is much harder to identify. Dr. Christine Cocchiola, a survivor herself, is dedicated to educating, supporting and advocating for others suffering in this horrible cycle of abuse. In this episode, you will learn the signs to look for when coercive control is an issue, strategies to extricate yourself and what we as a society need to do to protect victims and stop abusers.
Return on Thursday for Part Two where Dr. Cocchiola discusses the increasing awareness of another form of IPV, Post-Separation Abuse, which is increasingly in the headlines with the ongoing high profile cases of Kim Kardashion and Kanye West and the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial.
