Divorce is changing—and fast. In this episode, we explore how wealthy countries are moving away from blame, courtroom battles, and financial devastation toward a more humane way of ending a marriage. From Australia’s government-funded mediation to the global rise of collaborative divorce, couples are finding that splitting up doesn’t have to mean tearing each other down. We look at why alimony is fading, how shared custody and even “birdnesting” are reshaping family life, and why these approaches often spare both wallets and emotional well-being. Is this the beginning of a kinder, less combative era for divorce?
