Welcome Mac Pierre-Louis to the show. He is an attorney who specializes in mediation for the states of Texas and Florida. His superpower is bringing two sides that were so far apart in the beginning eventually together to compromise through mediation. His messages included walking a fine line without being a therapist, patterns of human nature, and taking a pause at the beginning of the conflict of your divorce. The podcast was much more interesting than I thought it would be. Mac was an excellent guest. Made it very fluid and understandable. Simple conversation with simple concepts. Thanks, Mac!
