Barbara Jan is the author of the book “Echt Scheiden: Zo doe je dat” (How get divorced – currently only in Dutch, but English translation planned).

Originally from Slovenia, Barbara dealt with a divorce in the Netherlands 8 years ago and needed to balance a full time corporate job with raising her two daughters on her own.

Not being a native in this country, she found it a huge challenge to understand the process and what her rights were. All of the information out there was mostly from either only the financial or legal perspectives – both very important, but not the whole story. Learning from her experience, she created a 9 step plan covering all the things you need to know before, during and after the divorce. From considering the parenting plan to where to live, some are more obvious steps, but others, like understand what a peildatum is, were much less obvious and can be expensive mistakes.

A trained coach, Barbara is offering a limited number of free coaching sessions to help internationals in The Netherlands to navigate this difficult time even more smoothly. To find out more, please contact us.
