By combining rigorous legal representation with healing-centered care from a licensed therapist, Sara and her team have created a firm where clients are seen as whole people navigating one of the hardest seasons of their lives, not just cases to be won or settled. The goal is to turn the temperature down, protect the family unit wherever possible, and leave every client better than they found them. This episode is for anyone navigating a difficult family situation, working in a high-stress profession, or leading a team through hard things. You will hear how to actually help your kids on transition days after a split, why "I just have to get to 18" is the wrong finish line, and what it means to leave someone better than you found them. Sara also walks through collaborative divorce, how her office is designed down to the scent and the chair sizes to create psychological safety, and what she is teaching law firms and universities about a better way to practice. This is a masterclass in combining emotional intelligence with professional excellence. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/she-lift-project-podcast-6474422/episodes/77-sara-marler-divorce-with-dignity/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/she-lift-project-podcast-6474422/77-sara-marler-divorce-with-dignity.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
