About this listen

In 2014, a media storm erupted when Gwyneth Paltrow announced her separation from Chris Martin, describing it as a harmonious and mutual 'conscious uncoupling' and the term entered the world's vocabulary overnight. Coined and created by relationship expert Katherine Woodward Thomas, the expression 'conscious uncoupling' has become synonymous with a divorce where both partners accept that they each played a role in the breakup and, in particular, are looking to co-parent in a functional and healthy way in the future.

The Conscious Uncoupling five-step process is designed to support separating couples through the thorny terrain of a breakup, helping them to consciously complete a relationship in ways that leave all involved whole, healthy and well, and optimistic about future relationships.

Conscious Uncoupling offers a new paradigm for divorcing couples and is set to become a classic in the genre.

Powerful material on how to let go of relationships in the best possible way. I could see the process potentially saving/reviving relationships because of how the conversations are being conducted—allowing each other to be seen and heard.

Very Good

What a great storyteller Katherine is.
And having her reading her own book was a blast.
I will soon start reading another book from her (particularly if she also reads it).

Prepare yourself for a treat.

One of the most important books you''ll ever read.

you can basically understand the book by accepting to take 100% responsibility for yourself and being a person of sustance.

I can appreciate the concepts, particularly in light of divorce, infidelity and hookup culture.

unfortunately not as ground breaking as expected

There was so much love and soul in this book but also many exercises to calm, understand, let go and invite the next stage of your life. In addition there is practical advice about splitting assets etc but all in the context of acting from your higher self to minimise damage to your kids, your self and your previous partner

A radical and beautiful way to create peace from chaos and disappointment

I found this guide tremendously helpful, even though I often found myself having to do cultural translation work - this book is clearly written from the perspective of a middle-class American woman and targets American readers above all.

Helpful but very American
