YES, I WANT IT NOWNICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Stacey Mendelson
In 2014, I stood where you are now—exhausted, overwhelmed, and staring down the hardest decision of my life. After 13 years of marriage, raising a high-needs child, and enduring years of emotional abuse, I discovered my husband was cheating on me.Â
I knew I had to leave my abusive marriage, but I also knew that divorcing him might be even harder than staying.
I was right. Once we separated, the abuse escalated. Threatening texts, lies, and manipulative games aimed at turning my son against me. I felt like I was under siege, bombarded by my ex’s relentless attacks and powerless to shield my child.
Thrown into the chaos of the family court system, I was completely unprepared—like I’d been tossed onto an NFL field without a helmet, getting tackled from every direction. I made mistakes, painful ones. But I refused to give up.
I figured out the rules of the game. I developed a strategy. And I won.
I walked away with primary parenting time, sole decision-making for my son, and a financial settlement that secured our future.
READ MY STORY
Navigating through a high conflict divorce on your own is a nightmare. I was lost and my legal fees were out of control. Stacey worked to educate me on the divorce process - from mastering how to work with your lawyer (and save you from going broke), understanding how (and how not) to communicate with your ex, learning how to remove the emotion from your correspondence with your lawyer, preparing you for the battle and giving you all the tools you need, and supported me without judgment."
Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for having met you. Your guidance your strength and compassion have been a tremendous blessing to me and my family.Thank you for being a guiding light and a reminder and inspiration for hope."
Having recently been introduced to Stacey, I drank from the firehose and read through all of her lessons the first few weeks.Â
I changed the way that I write emails to my ex, and was able to word things in a way that accomplishes more for my kids and helps to collect evidence for my upcoming litigation.Â
I followed her method to address my lawyers in a way that helps them to respond to clear questions and not use it as a dumping ground for my feelings and concerns. I’m so grateful to have found Stacey and her course and I look forward to the group support systems she’s built."
