Thank you for joining me on this journey, where we will discuss a range of matters relating to life –with all of its uncertainties, transitions, and opportunities for growth. If you are new to this program, I want to say welcome. I am a collaborative divorce attorney in Dallas, TX. I consider my work to be an amazing privilege, to walk through one of life’s most difficult challenges with my clients who teach me so much about navigating times of fear and uncertainty which is something so many of us experience in our lives.
