We all go into relationships hoping for the best. But sometimes, despite our best efforts, things don't work out as planned.
If you're facing a separation or divorce, you're already dealing with enough emotional upheaval. The last thing you need is financial chaos on top of it all.
In this episode of Money and a Good Life, hosts Ryan and Steph tackle this difficult but important topic with Angela Harbinson, founder of The Separation Guide – a tech platform designed to make separation easier on everyone involved.
Angela brings both professional expertise and personal insight to help navigate what can feel like an overwhelming process, covering:
- Why financial planning matters even in de facto relationships

- The essential checklist for anyone going through separation
- Professional support options like divorce coaches and financial advisors
- Helpful technology and apps that can simplify the process
- Self-care strategies for getting through this challenging time
Whether you're just considering separation, in the middle of the process, or helping a friend navigate their own breakup, this episode provides practical guidance for protecting your financial future while prioritising your wellbeing.
