JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – When life doesn’t go according to plan, how do you move forward? That’s the big question at the heart of Episode 1 of Split Happens, a new sponsored video podcast produced in partnership with Sasso Guerrero & Henderlite, Jacksonville-based family law attorneys.
Hosted by meteorologist Katie Garner and family law attorney Jay Henderlite, Split Happens doesn’t shy away from the hard stuff—divorce, custody battles, emotional breakdowns, and all the messy feelings in between. But it also offers something rare in conversations about family law: perspective, humor, and hope.
Explainer: ‘Split Happens’: New podcast unpacks divorce, custody battles, and starting over with confidence
🎙️ In Episode 1, “How to Win at Divorce,” Henderlite and Garner dive into what it really means to come out on the other side of separation stronger—not just legally, but emotionally and mentally.
“Divorce is your opportunity to live a better life than you lived before,” says Henderlite. “That’s possible for everyone.”
What You’ll Hear in Episode 1:
- The emotional pyramid of divorce—from panic and anger to peace and clarity
- What courts actually care about in custody or divorce cases (hint: not drama)
- How to stop catastrophizing and start planning for the next chapter
- Practical advice on navigating separation while protecting your mental health
- Why finding the right lawyer can set the tone for everything that follows
“No one comes to a divorce lawyer because they’re having a great day,” Henderlite says. “My job is to help people manage their expectations, take the temperature down, and give them a pathway forward.”
Garner brings her own candid perspective as someone who’s been through a difficult separation and knows firsthand how critical that support system can be.
“I thought I was done. I didn’t know what to do,” Garner says. “But life gets better. Calmer. Sweeter. You just need the right person in your corner.”
Why This Podcast Matters
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), almost 50 percent of all marriages in the United States will end in divorce or separation, and even more people face complex family law issues like custody arrangements, support agreements, and the emotional toll of separation. Split Happens was created to meet people where they are: overwhelmed, scared, and searching for guidance.
Whether you’re in the middle of a legal battle or just trying to understand your options, this podcast gives you the language, tools, and perspective to take control of your future.
