Über diesen Titel

Divorce isn’t polite, and this podcast isn’t either. Uncoupled & Unfiltered is where strong, self-sufficient adults come to get real about divorce—before, during, and after the papers are signed. Hosted by Ksenia Muench, MBA, a no-BS divorce strategist who’s been through the fire of high-conflict litigation, this show is for people who aren’t here to play games or drag anyone through the mud—but who are done taking crap and ready to move on.


If you’re dealing with a litigated divorce and trying to keep it fair, focused, and drama-free, this podcast is your new go-to. You’ll hear from legal pros, therapists, financial experts, and real people in the thick of it. Ksenia also drops unfiltered solo episodes full of straight talk, hard-earned lessons, and a healthy dose of tough love.


Divorce sucks. But you don’t. Let’s get through this with clarity, grit, and a little humor—because thriving after divorce is the real flex.

  • Divorce vs. Annulment: Legal and Spiritual Differences Explained
    Jan 13 2026

    In today’s episode, we explore the often-confusing intersection between civil divorce and Catholic annulment, unpacking what each process truly means—and what it does not. We discuss the legal, emotional, and spiritual weight carried by both, especially when faith, identity, and high-conflict relationships are involved. This conversation centers on clarity, boundaries, and honoring lived experience in the midst of profound change.


    Key Topics Covered:

    • Divorce and annulment serve different purposes

    ⁃ Divorce provides legal closure around property, finances, and custody.

    ⁃ A Catholic annulment is a spiritual process declaring a sacramental marriage invalid from the start.

    ⁃ One does not replace or override the other.

    • Both processes carry deep emotional weight

    ⁃ Divorce can trigger grief, anger, guilt, relief, or ongoing pain, especially with children involved.

    ⁃ Annulment may feel like erasure, rejection, or betrayal, particularly for non-initiators.

    ⁃ All emotional responses are valid and deserve compassion.

    • Annulment cannot be enforced through civil law

    ⁃ Courts have no jurisdiction over Church annulments.

    ⁃ A spouse cannot legally require an annulment as part of a divorce settlement.

    ⁃ Using annulment as leverage is manipulation, not a legal or moral obligation.

    • High-conflict dynamics can weaponize faith

    ⁃ Annulment may be used to protect reputation or shift blame.

    ⁃ It can rewrite shared history and compound emotional harm.

    ⁃ Ongoing contact, especially through co-parenting, can slow healing.

    • Your lived experience remains valid

    ⁃ Church decisions are made by human institutions and are not infallible.

    ⁃ An annulment outcome does not define your worth or negate your memories.

    ⁃ Healing comes from truth, clarity, and self-protection—not control.


    “Annulment does not erase memories, children, or emotional bonds. It's a spiritual declaration, not a reset button.” - Ksenia Muench
