Tonight's Guest Is:

Barbara La Pointe, A Divorce Coach for women, guiding them through the process of leaving a narcissist, dealing with lawyers and abuse in the courtroom..

Marriage to a narcissistic partner almost always includes some form of abuse. Emotional abuse, psychological abuse, financial abuse, physical or even sexual abuse often occur. Because of this, when it comes to getting a divorce from a narcissistic partner, abuse is generally heightened as the relationship turns into a “fight to the death” kind of battle. If you think you were walking on eggshells around a narcissist during the marriage, you will find running away from them on eggshells is even more challenging. Statistically, more men than women have NPD or narcissistic personality disorder, by a two to one ratio. Also, almost 70% of divorces are initiated by women across North America. But there are women narcissistic partners who are equally abusive in their marriages, and also in the divorce process.

She also helps practice mindfulness! In the list of top 10 stressors in life, Divorce almost always ranks as number 2. This is not surprising!  As the storm of stressful losses swirls around and inside you, learning how to center your thoughts in the moment is extremely important and enormously helpful. “Mindfulness” is a powerful stabilizing and calming practice you can easily learn and experience the benefits.
