The Critical Role of a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst

Melissa Ocean, Certified Divorce Financial Analyst and founder and CEO of Divorce Strategies Group and Abundant Wealth Strategies joins Amicable Divorce Network CEO Tracy Moore-Grant to discuss the important financial and emotional benefits of working with a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) throughout a divorce.

A member of the Amicable Divorce Network holding over thirty years of experience in the financial industry, Melissa Ocean’s passion lies with educating divorcees in personal financial literacy and empowering her clients to feel confident in navigating their future financials. Describing a CDFA as “the quarterback of a divorce team,” Melissa’s interview on the Amicable Divorce Network podcast covers the core differences between hiring a CDFA compared to a CPA, the potential toll of allowing emotion to control spending after divorce, and her unique Lifestyle Analysis and Spending Policy tools that have provided much success for her clients.

“There’s a lot of financial education that goes on through the divorce process… When you’re working with a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst, you have the ability to stay in the present and look forward, and that’s what I care about.“
