Episode Synopsis

"What we live with, we learn. What we learn, we practice. What we practice, we become." - Jennifer Kupferman

With an impressive academic background, including degrees from Columbia, Penn, Yale, and ASU, she leverages her understanding of high-pressure environments to help her clients find balance amidst the emotional and financial challenges of divorce.
