Episode 19: How to tell your partner you want to separate

Episode 19: How to tell your partner you want to separate

Telling your partner that you want to separate is a daunting prospect. Doing it wrong could have consequences like escalating conflict, creating unnecessary hurt for those around you and, in extreme circumstances, it could be dangerous. Preparing yourself to tell your spouse the right way can set the tone for a low-conflict separation from day one.

In this episode, we speak to our Senior Separation Consultant, Arabella Feltham, about:

  • safety as your number one consideration
  • discussing separation if moving out isn’t an option
  • the right moment to bring up separation
  • having a support person present
  • what to consider if you have children
  • how to prepare yourself
  • the words to use to avoid escalation
  • how to approach a trial separation
  • emotional reactions to expect from your partner and yourself.
