Navigating a high-conflict divorce or custody battle with a toxic ex? You’re not alone. Join me, co-founder of Been There Got Out, high-conflict divorce strategist, and certified domestic violence advocate, as I share hard-earned lessons from my own grueling legal battle—including how I represented myself in court and helped change domestic violence laws. Alongside my partner Chris, we provide expert strategies, real-life stories, and essential guidance to help men and women worldwide take on the legal system with confidence. From dealing with narcissistic exes to protecting your children from parental alienation, this podcast gives you the tools to stay sane and empowered under the most insane circumstances. Whether you’re in the trenches or rebuilding your life, we’re here to help you turn fear into fierce.

About Lisa Johnson

Lisa Johnson is the co-founder of Been There Got Out, a high conflict divorce strategist and certified domestic violence advocate who has successfully represented herself through scores of court appearances. Her case, published in the Connecticut Law Journal, is being used as legal precedent. Her live testimony helped pass Jennifers’ Law in Connecticut, the third state in America to expand its legal definition of domestic violence to include “coercive control.” She and her partner, Chris, coach people in high-conflict relationships, divorce, custody battles, and co-parenting hell so they have the chance of the best outcome in family court and beyond. They also offer a weekly Legal Abuse Support Group for those dealing with narcissistic opponents in legal matters. Their book, "Been There Got Out: Toxic Relationships, High-Conflict Divorce, and How to Stay Sane Under Insane Circumstances'' was released in March 2023. Their current book on what to do when your ex tries to turn the kids against you, as well as a comprehensive online program, “From Fear to Fierce in Family Court” is coming out this year!

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I sit down with Raquel Deville to talk about what it means to fully embrace neurodivergence. Raquel shares her journey through chronic pain, anxiety, and sensory overwhelm—and how practices like yoga, Somatic Experiencing, and TRE helped her reconnect with her body and identity.

We explore the healing that comes from self-awareness, the power of slowing down, and how honoring your nervous system can open the door to a more authentic life.

Whether you’re neurodivergent yourself or supporting someone who is, Raquel’s story is a beautiful reminder that our differences aren’t something to fix—they’re something to embrace.


About Raquel

Raquel Devillé is a Neurodiversity Therapist and creator of the EnCorps Method, a seven-step, body-based system designed to help atypical women embrace their neurodiversity without medication or traditional therapies. Raquel supports her clients in managing chronic stress, anxiety, sensory overload, and social exhaustion by reconnecting with their bodies and empowering them to live authentically. 

Raquel’s journey began as she struggled with chronic pain, anxiety, and sensory overload, challenges that intensified after she became a mother. These difficulties made her question conventional methods of coping and inspired her to seek alternative solutions. The turning point came when she discovered practices like yoga, TRE, and Somatic Experiencing, which allowed her to manage her symptoms and embrace her neurodivergence.
