Your Curated Playlist

You told us what you’re dealing with.
Here’s where to start.

Based on what you just shared, we pulled the interviews that speak most directly to your issues: real conversations with the people who actually can help guide you through.

Curated from 372 in-depth expert interviews

Your hand-selected interviews

Nothing you told us is unusual. We hear these same things every week.

Start wherever feels most urgent. Watch and listen at your own pace.

One is enough

You don’t have to watch all of these. Pick the one that matches what’s most urgent right now and watch it today. The rest will still be here.

Why these, and why us

Chris Barry and Lisa Johnson, founders of Been There Got Out

Been There Got Out was started by two people who lived through high-conflict divorce and custody, then spent years learning from the people who know the terrain: family law attorneys, psychologists, forensic experts, and others who came out the other side. Everything here comes from that collective wisdom.

Want to go deeper?

Both books come from the same collective wisdom of people working and living in the trenches of family court.
