The Power of Words: How Language Swaps Can Ease Your Divorce Journey

Your words are either leading toward your goal and your need and your message, or they're leading away from it.
Ever thought about how the words you choose can shape your divorce experience? In this episode of 'Starting Over Stronger', host Annie Allen dives into this fascinating topic with Erika Englund, a former divorce attorney and Chief of Marketing for Support Pay. They explore the concept of 'language swaps'—a technique that involves reframing negative statements into more neutral or positive ones. This simple yet powerful strategy can significantly improve communication and reduce conflict during divorce.
Erika shares her firsthand experiences using language swaps in mediation and highlights how respectful language can make a huge difference in co-parenting. The discussion also touches on high-conflict divorces, dealing with trauma, and how these language techniques can be applied to other areas of life. Erika's insights are practical and easy to implement, making this episode a must-listen for anyone navigating the turbulent waters of divorce.
Whether you're in the midst of a separation or just looking to improve your communication skills, you'll find valuable tips to help you move forward with clarity and resolution. Tune in and discover how changing your words can change your life.
