THE DIVORCE PROJECT MINI COURSE

Separation pathway

$49 AUD

Get clarity, confidence, and a clear plan… in less than a weekend.

When your relationship breaks down, the emotional fog hits first.

Then the questions hit even harder:

“Where do I even start?”
“What if I say something that makes everything worse?”
“What’s actually expected of me right now?”
“What if I make the wrong decision?”

You don’t need more overwhelm.
You need a roadmap.

Separation pathway

This course is for you if you’re

Supportive hand
  • Feeling lost, overwhelmed, or anxious about what separation looks like in practical terms
  • Unsure what steps to take first, or in what order
  • Worried that one “wrong move” might hurt your future outcome
  • Lacking clarity about property, money, or what’s legally required
  • Googling at midnight because you don’t yet feel ready to speak to a lawyer
  • Already separated… but still unclear about the process ahead

If any of this sounds like you, then this course was designed for you.

Supportive hand
Mediation

If you keep “waiting until you feel ready,” here's what tends to happen:

Mediation
  • Conversations escalate instead of calm down
  • Financial decisions get made in the dark
  • You stay stuck in uncertainty longer than necessary
  • Small issues turn into conflict
  • You delay getting the clarity that would help you protect yourself
  • You lose time and sometimes opportunities
  • Stress lingers because there’s no structure, no plan, no guidance

Clarity isn’t a luxury.

It’s the thing that stops a difficult chapter from becoming a damaging one.

Introducing…

Why Listen To Us

O’Loan Family Law isn’t your typical firm.

We’re award-winning family lawyers known for blending expert legal guidance with practical emotional support — because separation isn’t just a legal process. It’s a human one.

We’ve guided hundreds of Australians through separation with less stress, less conflict, and far more clarity. Our approach is calm, clear, compassionate and practical — and that shows in everything we teach.

This course distils the first steps we walk every new client through… for a fraction of the cost of a single consult.

Meet Bron, the creator of the The Divorce Project:  Mini Course

 

Bron also acts as an Independent Children’s Lawyer and has extensive experience in parental alienation matters, requiring expert advice and support.

Bron ins the principal of O’Loan Family Law and manages a highly effective and intrepid team of likeminded legal eagles, who help to guide separating couples in reaching an amicable settlement. Known for her ability to inspire, energise and collaborate, Bron is a well-respected member of the legal community. She is admitted to the Supreme Court of NSW and the High Court of Australia and holds membership with the Law Society, the Family Law Section, the Women Lawyers Association of NSW, the Australian Association of Collaborative Professionals and Parenting Coordination Australia.

Bron’s super power is that she thinks outside the box and focuses on solutions. Her coffee order is actually a peppermint tea thank you very much.

Most people meet Bron when their world feels like it’s shifting. 
But what many don’t realise is that Bron’s first career wasn’t in law at all. It was in teaching. 

Before she became an Accredited Specialist in Family Law, Bron spent years in classrooms helping children feel safe, supported and seen. Later, she travelled the world training people, managing teams, writing master’s programs, and lecturing at university — always driven by one purpose: help people feel safe, seen, and supported. 

But after watching families crumble under the emotional weight of separation — not because they were “doing it wrong,” but because they had no roadmap — Bron realised families didn’t just need legal advice. 
They needed guidance. A calm voice. A clear path. 

So she retrained, specialised, and built O’Loan Family Law around one mission: 
helping people get through separation with clarity, confidence, and their relationships intact enough to ensure the kids are okay. 

This course was born from that mission — a simple, supportive first step so you don’t have to navigate separation alone.
