Anne-Marie Cade is a Dispute Resolution Practitioner, an Accredited Mediator, a Divorce and Parenting Coach and a Family lawyer who is passionate about people and relationships. She wants to change the way families experience divorce and separation, and help them transition through to their new life in a calmer, kinder and more respectful way.

In this episode, we discuss how Anne-Marie works with clients to empower them to reach a peaceful, amicable separation and stay out of the Family Court, believing this approach will ensure a positive outcome for the family. We also discuss how she works with parents who want to reduce the conflict and improve their co-parenting relationship so the kids are happier, healthier, feel safe and secure.

We then move on to discussing Anne-Marie's role as a local municipal councillor; relate a story of a famous conflict resolution guru's local government experience that went bad and; land on some effective behaviours to arrive at the best outcomes.
