(Ir)Reconcilable Differences is a podcast about what really happens when a marriage ends and what comes next. Hosted by attorney and mediator Kim M. Ciesinski, Esq., PLLC, who brings more than 30 years of experience in divorce and family law, the show explores the human side of separation with practical, expert guidance.
At the center of the conversation is collaborative divorce, a process that goes beyond traditional mediation. It brings both parties and their advisors together to create a financial plan that supports their children, build sustainable co-parenting plans, define shared decision-making, and focus on what truly serves their children long term. The goal is not only to avoid divorce court, but to create a plan that works throughout the children’s lives.
Each month focuses on a key topic to help you navigate divorce and what comes after, with insights from trusted experts in the field.
