About this listen

Divorce isn’t just a legal process — it’s an emotional earthquake. And when you’re a mom trying to protect your kids (especially boys, who are more emotional than you think), the pressure can feel next-level.

In this week’s episode of the Mothers of Boys Survival Guide, I sat down with Lisa Johnson, a certified domestic-violence advocate and co-founder of Been There, Got Out. After a decade fighting through a high-conflict divorce, she now helps parents stay grounded, protect their kids, and navigate toxic co-parenting dynamics without losing their sanity.

We talk about:

  • Early red flags of a high-conflict divorce
  • How to protect your kids from emotional manipulation
  • The 10-minute connection rule every mom should know
  • Supporting boys who internalize stress and anger
  • Smart communication & documentation strategies
  • Finding the right support — for you and your kids

This episode isn’t doom-and-gloom. It’s truth, strength, and real tools for moms who are fighting to stay strong and raise resilient boys through messy chapters of life. You are not alone in this. 💛
