She joins Stacy Francis to discuss women, money, and divorce, as well as financial abuse and how to come out of the divorce process as financially secure as you can be.

– Divorce is not just a slip of paper that legally recognizes you as single. It involves many other ancillary issues, topics, and changes that need to be addressed and made.
– Financial abuse occurs when a spouse is relegated to the position of a child and has no control, knowledge, or agency over their finances. This results in a paternalistic and punitive financial relationship. Often, the victim is given a paltry sum of money as an allowance that is altered if they upset their spouse.
– In every divorce case, there is a mandatory disclosure of all financial information. Therefore, if there is a case of financial abuse, attorneys can legally force uncooperative parties to share their financial information by serving them a subpoena.
– Divorce is often a form of rebirth for women; they can live entirely new lives and become new people when they find the courage to claim the happiness they are entitled to.
