About this listen

Divorce doesn't end families -- it restructures them. Welcome to Thinking Boldly, where we challenge everything you thought you knew about divorce, family law, and the future of the family after divorce.

Hosted by the Consilium® Institute founders attorney Heidi Webb and (ret.) Judge Julie Field, this podcast brings together family law attorneys, judges, therapists, financial advisors, and clients who have experienced the transformative power of the Consilium Process firsthand. Consilium is an antidote to the adversarial, emotionally devastating, and financially draining traditional divorce system. The Thinking Boldly podcast explores this better way forward.

The Consilium Process represents a revolutionary approach to family restructuring that integrates legal, financial, and psychological support into one collaborative framework. Instead of viewing divorce as destruction, we see it as an opportunity for growth, healing, and the creation of healthier family systems that endure beyond the courtroom.

Each episode explores the innovative methods that are helping families across the nation move from dissolution to evolution. We dig deep into:

The Consilium Process: How a multidisciplinary paradigm creates better outcomes than traditional litigation

Family Restructuring: Practical strategies for co-parenting, communication, and maintaining family bonds through transition

The Emotional Journey: Understanding and navigating the psychological challenges of divorce with compassion and clarity

Financial Planning: Creating sustainable financial futures that align with legal and emotional realities

Legal Innovation: How attorneys are thriving by adopting integrative, client-centered approaches

Personal Growth: Using divorce as a catalyst for transformation rather than trauma


Whether you're a family law attorney seeking better tools to serve your clients, a mental health therapist or financial professional guiding families experiencing divorce, a judge looking for more effective approaches, or an individual navigating family transition, Thinking Boldly delivers the insights and inspiration you need.

Our founders bring unparalleled expertise: Heidi Webb created the Consilium Process through her dual background in family law and psychology, while Judge Julie Field has spent her career on the bench serving families navigating the court system. Together, they've built a national network of Consilium Practitioners who are transforming how families restructure for better futures.

We believe that with the right support, legal guidance, financial planning, and emotional tools, families can emerge from divorce stronger, healthier, and more optimistic about the future. Logic can prevail even during times of high emotion. Children can thrive. Co-parents can align on child-rearing. And everyone involved can move forward with dignity.

Join us for candid conversations that challenge conventional wisdom, share real client success stories, and provide actionable strategies you can implement immediately. Families deserve better than what the current broken divorce system offers -- and families thriving after divorce prove our methods work.
