This TED Talk features Allison O'Brien discussing how to navigate divorce with grace and minimize its negative impact on children. The talk details her personal experience of a high-conflict divorce growing up and her subsequent amicable divorce, emphasizing three key concepts: creating a vision for the future, emotional agility, and prioritizing listening. O'Brien advocates for letting go of blame and anger, focusing on collaboration rather than litigation, and actively listening to understand the other party's perspective. The outcome is a more positive co-parenting relationship, demonstrating that divorce doesn't have to destroy a family.
