Today’s episode features my younger sister, Aviva. The baby of the family, and youngest of five. That’s really the only place she’s the last in, because shes the hardest worker and over achiever I know. Aviva holds a position as senior manager, compliance program in US and Canada for Crypto.com. Last year Aviva completed her law degree, and passed the bar, while working full time.
She’s volunteered her time for the Uncontested Divorce Project, advocating for under privileged women in under served communites. Additionally, she sat on the board for ORT, and their now younger chapter, Next Gen.
This semester she will serve as a mentor with UJA CUNY-Hillel chapter, and is hugely active in her local Chabad. I hope you love her as much as I do.
Enjoy!
Topics covered:
• What's it like being the youngest of five?
• Being vastly different, while coming fro the same parents.
• What family dynamics led to her choices?

Not everyone is on the same page when it comes to divorce, having a mediator that gets you, can help with making quick decisions and letting go of the things that will only slow down the process, or wear you down. As a therapist for fifteen years, Tamara witnessed many couples headed toward divorce.
She heard about the pain and despair involved, and believed there had to be a better way for couples to move forward without feeling completely depleted from the process.
Tamar watched couples become drained from countless phone calls with lawyers and endless fees, thinking this was the only way to navigate divorce. She found this led to months and even years of fighting, arguing, and hitting dead ends. Tamar recognized that if communication was handled with more empathy, compassion, and attention to the emotional roller coaster involved in it could help couples move through the process more seamlessly. An amicable experience is better for everyone, most importantly, children.
This can be you. It doesn't have to be hard. It doesn't have to be ugly. It can work for you. Contact Tamara if you want to do divorce a better way.
