Connecting

Spring is a time of growth and change.  It has been nice to connect with individuals and organizations committed to change.  Cathy and I have been fortunate to meet people like Nancy Mackevich Glazer who created Legal Launch. Legal Launch is designed to connect lawyers with career opportunities.  Through  Nancy we met Alyson Carrel, the training director for the Center for Conflict Resolution in Chicago. The Center for Conflict Resolution’s mission is to work with individuals, organizations, and courts to resolve conflict. 

We also connected with Joost Allard from Split Partners.  Split Partners developed the concept of The Divorce Expo (TDE).  They have events planned for Miami, Houston, Philadelphia, and Detroit. On August 18th The Divorce Expo will be held at Hotel Arista in Naperville (a Chicago suburb). TDE offers a unique program with a diverse array of topics and exhibitors all in one location. 

I will be presenting at The Divorce Expo in Naperville on learning how to let go of power struggles between ex-partners.  One of the keys to taking back power is learning how to communicate in a way that empowers you as an individual.  Communicating with your partner can be challenging, communicating with your ex-partner can be excruciating.  I will help participants learn how to take the emotions out of communications.

More information about TDE is available on their website.  To keep updated on new developments or connect with others to exchange experiences, register for the TDE newsletter, or 'like' the facebook page.  Divorce Communications will have a table at the event for participants to get more information about what we do.  If you are planning on attending this event, come by and say hello, we’d love to meet you. 

Divorce Communications will be at the annual conference of the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC) June 6th-9th at the Hyatt Regency Chicago.  Stop by, we love meeting people and talking about what we do to help change the face of divorce in the U.S.  You can find more information on both events at https://www.facebook.com/DivorceCommunications.
