   You Can't Make This Shit Up: Real Stories from High-Conflict Divorce

   Today's episode of Uncoupled and Unfiltered is different. We're pulling back the veil — and what's behind it are the real stories. The ones that make your jaw drop. The ones that sound made up. The ones that absolutely, one hundred percent, happened. I'm sitting down with Tracy Malone — a coach, educator, and leading voice for survivors of narcissistic abuse. Tracy helps victims rebuild their lives and protect their families after the kind of relationship damage most people can't even wrap their heads around. She's the author of three bestselling books, including Divorcing Your Narcissist: You Can't Make This Shit Up! and Estranged by Lies — and through her platforms, podcast, and content, she reaches over a million people a year. Together, we're diving into the experiences people have when they're divorcing a high-conflict personality. The tactics. The manipulation. The moments that are so outrageous, so calculated, so utterly unhinged — that if you told someone who hadn't lived it, they'd think you were kidding. So buckle up — because today we're going full you can't make this shit up mode. Key Topics Covered: Real stories from real people - you can’t make this sh*t up Parental Alienation Legal Abuse Stalking Sur-thriver - learn the definition, and you are probably one of them Turning pain into life mission “You've been through hell and back. You're a proud warrior who has fought to find yourself and heal from the fallout of living in a toxic, abusive situation.” - Tracy Malone About Our Guest: Tracy Malone Tracy Malone is the founder of NarcissistAbuseSupport.com, an internationally recognized narcissistic abuse and divorce coach whose YouTube channel has reached over three million survivors and whose podcast ranks in the top 1.5% globally. She is the bestselling author of Divorcing Your Narcissist: You Can't Make This Shit Up! and launched ParentingPlans.org in 2024 to help parents create effective co-parenting plans after high-conflict divorce. Who This Episode Is For: You're in the middle of a high-conflict divorce, and the things happening to you are so outrageous you've stopped telling people because they don't believe you anyway. You're a parent fighting for your kids and watching the other side use them as weapons — and you need to know you're not alone and you're not crazy. You've been dragged through the legal system not for justice, but for punishment — and you're starting to realize the courthouse is just another battlefield. You thought leaving would mean it was over — but the stalking, the harassment, the control didn't stop. It just changed shape. You've survived it — or you're surviving it right now — and something in you is ready to stop just getting through it and start figuring out what comes next.

   Divorcing the “Ex from Hell”

   On today’s episode of Uncoupled and Unfiltered—the podcast for anyone who’s done pretending their divorce will be amicable and is ready to face what really happens when the gloves come off—we’re talking with Suzy Miller.

   Divorce Doesn’t Harm Kids—Conflict Does

   In this powerful episode of Uncoupled and Unfiltered, we sit down with Karen McMahon, certified relationship and divorce coach and founder of Journey Beyond Divorce, to unpack the realities of high-conflict divorce and the emotional toll it can take on families—especially children. The conversation dives deep into the impact of high-conflict divorce on children, including the difficult and often misunderstood issue of parental alienation. We also discuss the role of a minor’s counsel in family court and how legal professionals can help ensure that children’s voices and best interests are represented during contentious custody battles. If you’re struggling to keep your peace during a difficult separation, this conversation provides tools, perspective, and hope for moving forward. Key Topics Covered: What defines a high-conflict divorce and why traditional co-parenting strategies often fail The impact of conflict on children—understanding that it’s not divorce itself that harms children, but ongoing parental conflict and hostility Recognizing signs and dynamics of parental alienation in high-conflict custody situations The role of minor’s counsel in advocating for children’s best interests in family court Practical communication strategies with a high-conflict ex, including asking “Is a response warranted?” before engaging Learning healthier communication and boundaries over time—acknowledging that mistakes are often part of the learning process Are courts child-friendly, or are they more 50/50 oriented? Insights from Karen McMahon and her work with Journey Beyond Divorce, supporting individuals through the emotional challenges of high-conflict divorce “If you have to respond, don't add fuel to the fire. Just say something that's nothing, and then get on with your day.” - Karen McMahon Navigate Even the Most Challenging Divorce with Confidence: https://rapidreliefcall.com/ (https://rapidreliefcall.com/) About Our Guest: Karen McMahon Karen McMahon is a certified relationship and divorce coach, podcast host, and the founder of Journey Beyond Divorce, a coaching organization dedicated to helping individuals navigate the emotional challenges of separation and high-conflict divorce.
