The Power of Preparation
What to Get Organised Before Starting a Property Settlement
When it comes to separation, there’s one thing I know for sure:
💡 Feeling prepared gives you power.
You might be navigating a whirlwind of emotions right now—uncertainty, grief, overwhelm, maybe even relief—and trying to think about spreadsheets and paperwork might feel like the last thing you want to do.
But here’s the truth most people are not told: being organised before you start a property settlement can make everything feel more manageable, more fair, and way less stressful.
And you don’t have to do it all at once.
You just need to start, one step at a time.
In this blog, I’m walking you through a simple, clear list of what to get together before you begin negotiating your property settlement. Because when you sit at the table with clarity and confidence, everything changes.
✨ Why Preparation is Your Superpower
I’ve worked with so many clients who’ve said things like:
“I don’t know where to begin.”
“I feel like he (or she) knows so much more about the money than I do.”
“I just want this to be over.”
And I get it. Truly. But here’s what I want you to know:
You are more capable than you think.
Getting organised before you start the formal process helps you:
✅ Understand what you’re entitled to
✅ Avoid costly mistakes or delays
✅ Feel calmer and more in control
✅ Walk away with a fair outcome that sets you up for the future
📝 The Property Settlement Prep Checklist
You don’t need to have all the answers, but you do need to gather the right information.
💖 A Few Gentle Words Before You Begin
You don’t have to do this alone.
Preparing for your property settlement might feel overwhelming at first—but every document you gather is a step toward clarity. A step toward security. A step toward your next chapter.
If you need help, get support. Reach out to a trusted advisor, talk to your lawyer, or connect with others who’ve walked this path. If you’re looking for a peaceful, guided way forward, a retreat or workshop can also give you space to step back, breathe, and get clear.

Start with one section. Give yourself permission to go slow.
