A Strategic Preparation Program to Help You Walk Into Every Legal Meeting, Mediation Session, and Difficult Conversation Organized, Informed, and Fully Prepared to Advocate for Yourself.

Your lawyer charges by the hour. Your mediator needs you ready. And the decisions made in these rooms will affect your life — and your children's lives — for years. This workshop is about making sure you show up prepared. Not just with the right documents, but with a clear understanding of the process, a strategy for what you want to achieve, and the emotional steadiness to stay focused when things get tense. I'll walk you through exactly what to bring, what to say, what to watch out for, and how to work effectively with your legal team so that every minute — and every dollar — counts. Knowledge is power. This program gives you both.

Walk Into Your Legal Process Prepared, Confident, and in Control.

The legal side of divorce is overwhelming by design. There's terminology you don't know, documents you're not sure how to find, and decisions with long-term consequences — all while you're emotionally depleted. Most people walk into mediation or legal meetings under-prepared, which costs them time, money, and outcomes that matter.

The Legal & Mediation Prep Workshop is your strategic advantage. Led by CDC Certified Divorce Coach® Heidi Dinning, this workshop doesn't give you legal advice — it gives you something equally powerful: the practical preparation, emotional readiness, and strategic clarity to make the most of every legal and mediation opportunity you have.

What You'll Learn:

How the divorce legal process works in Canada — timelines, key players, and what to realistically expect at each stage.
What mediation is, how to prepare for it, and how to use it to reach agreements that actually work for your family.
How to organize your financial and legal documentation so nothing falls through the cracks.
Your BATNA (Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement) — and how to use it to negotiate from a position of strength.
How to communicate effectively with your lawyer to save money and get better outcomes.
Emotional regulation strategies for high-pressure meetings, negotiations, and difficult conversations.
How to identify high-conflict tactics used in legal settings — stalling, gaslighting, and financial manipulation.

What's Included:

Video Lessons: Clear, accessible modules covering the legal process, mediation strategy, and preparation frameworks with Heidi Dinning.
The Legal Prep Toolkit: A downloadable package including a document checklist, financial inventory worksheet, and key questions to ask your lawyer.
Mediation Strategy Workbook: A fillable workbook to clarify your priorities, map your BATNA, and plan your negotiation approach.
Group Q&A Session: A live session with Heidi to walk through your specific legal and mediation concerns and get strategic coaching support.
Optional 1:1 Add-On: Book a private pre-mediation or legal prep session with Heidi for a fully personalized strategy.

Who This Workshop Is For:

Anyone preparing for mediation, a settlement conference, or legal proceedings.
Individuals who feel confused, overwhelmed, or intimidated by the legal process.
Those who want to make the most of their legal representation without burning through their budget.
Anyone navigating a contested or high-conflict divorce who needs to show up strategically.
