  Jul 5, 202610 minS2

  There was a day when I stopped fighting my divorce. Not because I had won. Not because the process was over. Because the way I had been fighting was costing me more than I could afford to keep paying — financially, physically and in the quality of every decision I was making. What the sustained state of conflict does to your nervous system over time — and the cost that never appears on any solicitor's bill The shift from reactive to strategic — what it actually means and why it produced better decisions and a better outcome The one question Vincent asked himself that changed everything — and how to apply it to your own situation right now This content is based on personal experience of the financial remedy process in England and Wales.

  Season 2 Episode 6 My Mortgage Jumped to 8 Point 8 Percent

  Jun 28, 202610 minS2

  My mortgage sat at 8.8% for years during my divorce. Not because I was bad with money. Not because I had not tried to fix it. Because remortgaging required agreement from someone who had no intention of agreeing. Every month I watched money disappear that did not have to disappear. I was borrowing to cover bills. Working seven days a week. Visiting my doctor because the stress was affecting my health. And the mortgage just kept sitting there — a reminder of how trapped I was inside someone else's choices. Why divorce creates financial traps that have nothing to do with your income or your willingness to act — and what being trapped inside one actually feels like The real cost of the 8.8% mortgage — not just in money but in health, sleep and the sustained anxiety that never switches off What Vincent wishes he had done differently — and what to do if you are in a similar position right now This content is based on personal experience of the financial remedy process in England and Wales.

  Season 2, Episode 5 - Men and Divorce: Why We Stay Silent (And the Cost of That)

  Jun 14, 202611 minS2

  Nobody asked how I was coping. They just expected me to keep going. And I did. In this episode of Divorce in Plain English, I talk openly about something I have never addressed directly before: the silence many men carry through divorce. I share my own experience of working seven days a week, carrying financial pressure alone, watching my mortgage jump to 8.8%, taking out loans to cover bills, and convincing myself I was fine when I wasn't. This is not a legal episode. It is a personal one. We talk about why men stay silent, what that silence costs us financially and emotionally, and what I wish I had done differently. If you are going through a divorce right now, or know someone who is, I hope this episode helps. No legal advice. Just plain English from someone who has been there. 📩 Free weekly newsletter: https://divorceinplainenglish.substack.com 📅 Book a personal session (£95): https://calendly.com/adejames/talk-to-vincent-personal-divorce-experience-session 📖 Financial Remedy Roadmap ebook (£25): https://shinajames.gumroad.com/l/drdgzb
