What happens when I cancel my membership?
When you cancel your membership, your profile will be removed from the Fresh Starts Expert Guide immediately. The good news is, if you decide to return, you can reactivate at any time and your profile will be preserved. You’ll continue to have access to your dashboard until your membership end date, but community events and referrals will no longer be available to you.
Any podcast recordings you’ve scheduled will be cancelled, and if you have podcasts currently in production, they will not be pushed live. Any content you’ve contributed—any previously shared articles, events, freebies, groups, or classes—will remain published for now, but may be removed at any time after cancellation. Any co-branded or jointly run workshops will also be cancelled.

How is Fresh Starts different from other divorce networks?
There might be other websites out there to list yourself as a divorce professional- but I promise you there is nothing else like Fresh Starts. We are mission driven, completely bootstrapped and always looking to bring value to our Experts.
Fresh Starts was founded by sisters Olivia and Jenny. When Olivia went through her divorce she couldn’t find values-aligned, compassionate support, our platform was built from the ground up to meet people where they are: in the middle of a major life change, needing help they can trust.
Olivia and I are changing the narrative around divorce and divorce support and we've been everywhere from The New York Times to The Today Show.
Unlike traditional lawyer profile sites, we lead with connection. Our audience is emotionally invested, organically built, and over 10 billion strong across our platforms. We receive over 15x the web traffic of many popular lawyer recommendation websites—not because we chase clicks, but because people trust us to guide them toward kind, vetted professionals who truly get it.
Further my sister, the CEO, holds free divorce resource consults every day for people looking for divorce support. It's is vitally important to us that we never charge people navigating divorce for our expert guide, education or website resources.
For lawyers, this means being part of a trusted, mission-driven ecosystem where clients come not just looking for legal help—but looking for you. And because we’re referral-focused and community-driven, you’re not just joining a directory—you’re joining a team of therapists, coaches, and experts all working together to support people rebuilding their lives.
Additionally, our Premium Listing provides 6 hours of programing a week including 2 hours of hot seat coaching, guesting on our 3 top rated podcasts (including Divorce Happens which is consistently in the top 100 of divorce related podcasts globally) AND PR support. We've gotten our Experts into over 1,200 pieces of press.

How long can it take to see published pieces and how will I know?
We track everything and follow up with journalists. Sometimes publishing can take a day, sometimes a week, and sometimes even months! It is all dependent on the piece, the outlet, the journalist, and so forth. When a press piece is published, you will get an email with all of the information and links!

Do you cap Experts in a category?
As Fresh Starts believes that a rising tide raises all ships, we have no plans at this time to cap membership or categories. We are firm believers in community and collaboration over competition. In an effort to prevent overwhelm for Freshies looking to connect with Experts we have made a commitment to thoroughly vet all incoming experts and maintain a curated experience.

What’s the difference between the Essential and Premium Expert listings?
We offer two membership options for Fresh Starts Experts, both designed to support your visibility and growth — but with different levels of access and engagement:
Essential Expert Listing is perfect if you’re looking for increased visibility without the time commitment of community events. You’ll be featured in the Fresh Starts Expert Guide with an SEO-optimized profile, expert-led workshops, networking events, plus receive priority access and exclusive discounts to our cohorts, classes, and webinars.
Premium Expert Listing includes everything in the Essential Listing, plus full access to our expert community. This means weekly co-working and coaching hours, podcast guesting, and access to our content and video libraries. You'll also have opportunities to publish articles and promote your events in our newsletter.
In short:
Essential = Visibility.
Premium = Visibility + Community + Growth.
