You're building, you're growing, you're leading, but this is one of those conversations most people avoid because it feels uncomfortable, especially when it involves your relationship. On this week's episode, Gabriela Martinelli sits down with me to talk about what it really looks like to protect what you've built, not just emotionally, but financially and legally too. We're getting into the real risks practice owners face when there's no plan in place, what happens behind the scenes during a divorce, and why waiting until something goes wrong can cost you everything. If you're serious about your practice, your team, and the legacy you're creating, this is a conversation you can't afford to skip. Gabriella E. Martinelli is a divorce financial strategist and founder of Ever After Wealth, where she helps business owners and physicians protect their practices and financial futures before, during, and after divorce. With over 20 years of experience and a background working inside family law firms, she brings a rare blend of financial strategy and real-world insight to high-stakes decisions that impact wealth, business ownership, and legacy.
