Nikki Parkinson is a separation strategist, family law expert, mother of three, and unmarried.Once upon a time, Nikki spent her 9-5 working in the corporate world of Family Law, ticking boxes and filing court orders. Then her marriage ended, and she found herself standing in the shoes of her clients — anxious, alone and lost despite all of her experience. She's lived through the difficulties of separation — both her own and her clients. Now, her goal is to take the fear-factor out of divorce and separation, reduce the shame, start important conversations around the practicalities of ending a relationship and take the mess out of messy.
Description:
After a decade working in the Family Law System — and experiencing her own divorce from the father of her daughter – she saw a gap in the system: divorce no longer has a stigma, but we are telling women to ‘be brave and seize the day’ without the holistic support they need to have an empowered separation. In this informed and heartfelt episode, Nikki shares what she has learnt from supporting women through divorce and separation, how stigma continues to riddle two broken hearts, and why single shaming (even from your dearest Nan) can be replaced with “Congratulations on your divorce!”
