There is no denying the emotional and financial toll that divorce can take on a family. But once the decision has been made to end a marriage, there are steps that can be taken to prevent the destructive toll on each spouse’s financial future.
In this Wednesday’s episode of The Root Live: Bring It to the Table, host Harriette Cole speaks with certified divorce coach Tamara Harris Robinson, who works with families in the transition to divorce. Despite a potentially contentious relationship, Robinson recommends that couples look for common ground and set financial priorities as a starting point for negotiation. Prudential professional ShirleyAnn Robertson joins the discussion to talk about setting expectations after divorce in the transition from a two-income to one-income life.
The Root Live: Bring It to the Table video series continues every Wednesday through Dec. 24. Other topics in the series include the following:
* whether crowdfunding can finance your dream;
* LGBT partners and benefits: knowing your rights;
