The Good Divorce Workbook
A Workbook for Ending a Marriage the Way You Want to Remember It
This workbook produces a signed agreement naming what was good, what changed, and what you want for each other.
For the couple who has decided to separate and wants to do it with the same intention they brought to the beginning. For the person who remembers why they fell in love and wants that memory to inform how this ends — not be destroyed by it.
The Name It First Experience
A marriage that ends well is still a marriage that mattered — this workbook is built on that premise. The Good Divorce Workbook takes both of you through the questions a lawyer will not ask: why you chose each other, what you built together, what changed, and what you want your separation to say about who you are. It is for the couple who has decided to separate and wants to carry the memory of what was good into the way they end — not have it destroyed by the process. You finish with a signed Separation Agreement in your own words, naming what you shared, how it changed, and what you want for each other going forward.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- Why did you fall in love with this person — and does remembering that change anything about how you want this to end?
- What do you want to be true about how this is remembered — not by the lawyers, but by the people who know you?
- What has been genuinely good in this marriage that deserves to be named before you separate?
Research basis
Grounded in Ahrons (1994) research on cooperative divorce and the binuclear family / Kelly and Emery (2003) on children's adjustment outcomes as a function of parental conflict management post-separation / Fischer et al. (2005) on mediated divorce agreements and long-term compliance compared to litigated settlements.
