Episode 104: "If You Leave, I'll Cut You Off": The Financial Threat No One Warns You About
Ever had someone you love use money as a weapon? Not in a dramatic movie way, but in that quiet, gut-punch way where they say "if you leave, you'll get nothing" and suddenly you're questioning whether you even have the right to go. If that sounds familiar, or you know someone drowning in it right now, this episode is the one to press play on. We're unpacking the real difference between a partner who's terrified and a partner who's controlling, because trust me, they are not the same thing, and knowing which one you're dealing with changes everything. In this episode, you'll learn: How to tell the difference between a fear-based reaction and genuine financial control, so you stop guessing and start seeing things clearly Why your legal rights don't disappear just because someone threatens to cut you off (spoiler: the family court doesn't care about the threats either) Practical, quiet first steps you can take right now to protect yourself, without tipping anyone off before you're ready What to actually say in the moment, whether you're dealing with fear or full-blown control, so you're not caught off guard Why the money mindset stuff running in the background might be keeping you stuck longer than the threats themselves You deserve to make decisions based on what's right for you, not out of fear of what might happen to your bank account. If this episode hit home, share it with someone who needs to hear it today.

Episode 103: Money, Breakups, and the 67 Dresses Nobody Talks About with Erin Davis
Let's be honest, money and relationships are messy. Someone always ends up "the money person," someone else checks out, and half of us have no idea what's actually happening in our own bank accounts. This episode with accountant and money coach Erin Davis gets into all of it, who really holds the financial control in relationships, what to do if that's not you, and how to actually rebuild your finances after a separation, without pretending it's not overwhelming. In this episode, you'll learn: How to start taking ownership of your money, even if you've never been "the finance person" in your relationship What to actually do (practically) if you're preparing to leave a relationship, from bank accounts to budgeting Why chasing the lifestyle you had before separation might be setting you up to struggle A simple way to track your spending without turning it into another thing to feel guilty about How to rebuild financial confidence one small, unglamorous step at a time This one's for anyone who's ever looked at their bank account and thought "how did I not see that coming." Give it a listen, then tell a friend who needs to hear it too. Meet Erin Davis Erin's been an accountant for 30+ years and has helped hundreds of women get financially strong, not just with their numbers, but with their confidence. She's a mum, a wife, and someone who genuinely believes money isn't just about money, it's about mindset. Think of her as the accountant in your back pocket. When she's not untangling someone's finances, she's out on the trails at sunrise, muddy shoes and all, proving that grit shows up everywhere.

Episode 102: Breaking Down My Treatment: Cisplatin
What Actually Happens During Chemo (The Stuff No One Puts On A Brochure) You get handed a pile of pamphlets, a diagnosis, and about sixty days to "figure it out." That's it. That's the prep. In this episode, Stacy breaks down exactly what her cisplatin chemo looked like, from the cannula going in to the crocs-and-socks combo that got her through it, and why the thing that actually hurt the most wasn't the needle at all. If you've ever felt like you had to just wing it through the scariest weeks of your life because nobody handed you a real manual, this one's for you. What You'll Learn Why recording your doctor's appointments might be the single most useful thing you do, and how "chemo brain" makes it near impossible to remember what was said in the room The small, practical hacks (elevating your legs, shaving your arms, packing your own food) that made long treatment days more bearable What the side effects actually felt like versus what was on the seven pages of paperwork, from taste changes to fatigue that hits differently than normal tired Why hardship has a way of showing you exactly who your people are, and why the person supporting you needs just as much care as you do How to hold onto perspective when your mind runs straight to worst-case scenarios (spoiler: the paperwork usually says "rare" for a reason) If any part of this hit home, you're not alone in it, and you don't have to figure the rest out by yourself either. Book a call with Stacy, share this episode with someone who needs to hear it today, or head to the website to catch the rest of the series.

Episode 101: Domestic Violence Doesn't Start with a Bruise: What Nobody Tells You Early On
Okay, real talk. We need to stop thinking domestic violence only looks like one thing. It doesn't start with a bruise, it starts way earlier than that, with a comment you brushed off, a mood swing you excused, a "that's just how he is" you told yourself one too many times. In this episode I sit down with Joplin Higgins (family lawyer, DV advocate, and someone who's seen every version of this story) to talk about what control actually looks like before it gets physical, and why so many of us miss it until we're years deep. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the warning signs almost always show up way before things get "official," and why our gut usually knows before our brain catches up How we're conditioned from girlhood to excuse bad behaviour ("he's just being a bit much because he likes you"), and why that conditioning follows us into adult relationships The real, broader picture of what family violence includes, because it's so much more than physical, and if you've only been looking for bruises you might be missing everything else Why leaving isn't the finish line, and what the after looks like when it comes to rebuilding trust in yourself Where to actually go for support if this hits close to home, because you shouldn't have to figure this out alone If any part of this made you pause, sit with that. And if you know someone who needs to hear it, send it their way today. If you're navigating separation or you just need someone in your corner who actually gets it, book a call, that's exactly what we're here for. Connect with Stacy: https://www.stacymunzenberger.com About Joplin: Joplin has dedicated her career as a solicitor to championing the safety of women and children. As a vocal and dynamic advocate for domestic violence awareness. In 2016, Joplin was selected as one of only ten Westpac Social Change Research Fellowships to advance her efforts in domestic violence redress. Joplin studied the effective approaches in rehabilitation for domestic violence perpetrators in the United States and how best to apply them in Australia through the Criminal Law and Family Law justice system. She has authored a paper on the Evaluation of Perpetrator programs nationally and internationally. As a member of the Family Law, Care & Protection Panel and Independent Children's Lawyer panel with the Legal Aid Commission of New South Wales, Australia. Joplin is driven by my resolve to give a strong voice to those who are not being heard Joplin's commitment to law was recognised by the 2021 Queen's Birthday Honours list, in which she received a Medal of the Order of Australia for her 'Service to the Law'.

Episode 100: The Communication Skills Nobody Ever Taught You - Jaimie Abbott
Are You Actually Listening, or Just Waiting for Your Turn to Talk? Okay, real talk. Most of us were never taught how to communicate. Not at school, not at home, not anywhere. We just kind of winged it and then wonder why the hard conversations turn into blow ups, why the networking event felt awkward, or why we froze mid-sentence when it mattered most. This week I sat down with Jamie Abbott, journalist turned military media coach turned "how to actually get people to listen to you" expert, and she called me out within the first two minutes. Fair enough. This episode will make you rethink your last few conversations. What You'll Learn The one thing exceptional communicators do differently (hint: it's not about what you say) Jamie's simple formula for winning people over at any event, even if you hate small talk Why "listening" and "waiting for your turn" are not the same thing, and how to actually tell the difference How to prep for a hard conversation so it doesn't turn into a fight or years of silence What your hands, tone, and body language are giving away without you realising it If this episode hit home, you're going to want to hear the whole thing.To know more about Stacy, visit her website at: https://www.stacymunzenberger.com About Jaimie Abott Jaimie Abbott is an award-winning international keynote speaker, MC, media trainer and public speaking coach based in Newcastle, Australia.

Episode 99: The BIFF Method: What to Actually Type Back When They Send You That Message
You know the message. The one that makes your chest go tight and your thumbs start moving before your brain's caught up. Most of us think fighting back, or over-explaining, is how you win that moment. It's not. It's how you keep losing it. This episode is about the BIFF method, four letters that change how you respond to conflict for good. Not "stay calm" advice. The actual words to type back. What you'll walk away with: The exact structure to reply with so nothing you say can be twisted or used against you later Why answering every accusation is the thing that keeps the drama alive, and what to do instead What "friendly" really means in a tense exchange (hint: it's not warmth) A simple gut check to run before you hit send, every single time Why waiting to respond might be the most powerful move you make all week This isn't just for coparents or exes. It's for that one coworker. That relative. That group chat. You already know who. If this hit close to home, you don't have to figure it out alone. Book a call, join the program, or come say hi on the website. And if this episode helped, send it to the friend who needs to read it too.

Episode 98: Co-Parenting or Parallel Parenting? The Question Nobody Asks You Before You Sign the Parenting Plan
Stop Trying to Co-Parent With Someone Who Never Agreed to Play If you've been giving everything to make co-parenting work with someone who just isn't meeting you halfway, and you keep walking away feeling like you're the one getting it wrong... I need you to hear this. You're not failing. You've just been using the wrong tool for the situation you're actually in. In this episode, I'm breaking down the real difference between co-parenting and parallel parenting, and why choosing the second one doesn't mean you've given up on your family. It means you've finally stopped fighting for something that was never on the table. In this episode, you'll learn: Why "co-parenting" isn't one-size-fits-all, and how to spot which model you're actually in The exact boundaries that make parallel parenting work, from communication to handovers to big decisions How to let go of the guilt that comes with stepping back from a cooperative model that isn't working Simple, practical shifts you can make starting today, without needing your ex to change at all Why your child doesn't need two parents who agree. They need two parents who are steady This episode is for you if you've been exhausted, second-guessing yourself, or quietly wondering if it's your fault. It's not. Give it a listen, and if it hits home, share it with someone who needs to hear it too. Ready to go deeper? Book a call with me and let's talk about what structure could actually look like for your family. "You don't need your ex to become reasonable. You need a structure that doesn't depend on it." 🔗 Website: https://www.stacymunzenberger.comExplore Resources: https://www.transformwithstacy.com/the-narcissist-playbook #CoParenting #ParallelParenting #SingleParentLife #CoParentingTips #DivorcedParents #FamilyBoundaries #ParentingAfterDivorce #HealthyBoundaries #ParentingSupport #TheStacyMShow #RealTalkParenting #CoParentingJourney
