About this listen

Separation and divorce are emotionally demanding, but for many women it’s the financial side that can be the most confronting. When stepping into the separation process, there is so much emotion and so much to consider. Throw on top of that being asked to gather documents, understand financial disclosure, work with family lawyers, and make decisions that can shape your future - it is an incredibly challenging time. To help understand what is needed, Naomi is joined by Julie Garis, Chartered Accountant, Forensic Accountant and Founder of Simple Split Financials, to unpack the financial realities of divorce. In this episode, we cover:

What financial disclosure really means in a divorce
The key documents you need to gather and why they matter
What forensic accounting is and when it is needed
How missing or incomplete disclosure is identified

We also discuss how Julie works alongside family lawyers, why financial and legal roles are different but complementary, and how the right support team can make this process feel more manageable. If you know anyone who could benefit from this information, please consider sharing it with someone in your world — a sister, mother, daughter, friend, or colleague — who may be facing separation or divorce and could benefit from hearing this conversation.
