Less War, More Sense: Inside the Amicable Approach to Divorce
#AD Today on The Big D with Ateh and Buzzy, we’re joined by the brilliant Kate Daly, founder of ‘amicable’ and one of the leading voices shaking up how we think and get through the practicalities of breakups …amicably. Kate's seen the worst of divorce up close, messy, expensive, and way more painful than it needs to be. So she did something about it. She built ‘amicable’ to help couples separate in a calmer, more constructive way…less war, more “let’s figure this out like grown-ups.” She’s helped thousands of couples navigate divorce without the drama, and she’s on a mission to change the story ; because ending a relationship doesn’t have to mean destroying each other in the process. We’re getting into what actually makes a “good” breakup, why the system is so broken, and how to come out the other side with your sanity (and your finances) intact. It’s honest, it’s real, and it might just change how you think about divorce00:00 Understanding Healthy Boundaries in Divorce 02:47 The Broken Divorce System 05:51 Identifying Candidates for Amicable Divorce 09:08 Debunking Divorce Myths 12:14 The Importance of Financial Orders 15:00 The Role of Lawyers vs. Family Dynamics 17:59 Setting Goals for a Collaborative Divorce 21:00 The Emotional Journey of Divorce 24:06 The Amicable Process Explained 27:00 Navigating Conflict in Divorce 30:02 The Role of Negotiators in Amicable Divorce 35:12 The Role of Direction in Mediation 39:21 Children's Needs During Divorce LINKS: 1.

Valentine Warner: Cooking Through Divorce and Starting Again
This week on The Big D, Ateh Jewel and Buzzy are joined by chef, forager, and philosopher of food Valentine Warner for a deeply honest, unexpectedly funny conversation about divorce, identity, and starting again.
Known for his rustic, no-fuss approach to cooking and his belief that food can quite literally heal the soul, Valentine opens up about navigating the chaos of separation, from “cooking feverishly” through heartbreak to rebuilding a life (and appetite) in a tiny studio flat. Together, they explore the emotional parallels between the kitchen and relationships: what we keep, what we discard, and how we learn to nourish ourselves again.
From the high-adrenaline world of professional kitchens to the quiet loneliness of cooking for one, this episode dives into the realities of post-divorce life, while also offering hope, humour, and a reminder that even the simplest meal can be an act of self-worth.
Expect candid stories, sharp insights, and a fresh perspective on healing….served with a side of anchovies, nature, and a little bit of magic.
