Ep. 161 Victoria Kirilloff: Divorce Analytics: Ignoring Red Flags is Self Sacrificing Behavior and Can Lead to Unintended Demise

Join Victoria and Paulette for this conversation about that gut wrenching feeling of not knowing what to do!!

Victoria Kirilloff, CDFA®, NCPM®, CDS® was at a crossroads; she could not stay married but did not know how to leave.

Victoria’s decade long partnership had far exceeded its expiration date, but they were deeply financially entwined. Searching for a pathway to freedom, Victoria went back to her roots of financial analysis and report writing (which is how she got her first horse).


Victoria created the first Divorce Impact Analysis report which laid out the marital financial facts and different settlement ideas. After a shockingly productive conversation, Victoria and her former partner came to a resolution and peacefully separated. That’s when a lightbulb went off in Victoria’s head! Victoria realized that she could not only help others leave their timed-out marriages but also guide them to becoming financially empowered in the process. Determined to bring a modern peaceful approach to the divorce process, Victoria founded Divorce Analytics. Divorce Analytics focuses on bringing financial clarity and transparency to the divorce process and illustrates the real-world impact of proposed settlements. By concentrating on the financial facts, Victoria shifts the divorce process from destructive to productive.


Victoria recently released an 9 part Divorce Planning Kit and more information can be found at DivorceAnalytics.com/shop. Victoria is a lifelong learner and spends most of her free time increasing her knowledge base. In addition to being a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®, a Certified Divorce Specialist®, and mediator, Victoria holds seven other different financial services licenses and designations.

Being in the right place, doing the right thing, at the right time, for a person (or couple of people) in need, drives A.J. to continue growing his legal practice. He focuses his efforts on providing solutions that protect the interests of those who seek amicable resolutions in their lives.

Protecting your rights and providing solid legal counsel through one of life’s most difficult and stressful situations.

A.J. Grossman III is the only experienced, practicing family law attorney in Florida who holds a Master of Laws degree from the #1-ranked dispute resolution program in the United States, The Straus Institute at Pepperdine School of Law.

He helps his clients to understand their legal rights and the Florida legal process, and negotiate settlements that protect their rights and the rights of their children.

Mr. Grossman understands that every client and/or family is unique, and no single approach is the right one for all clients or all families. Therefore, Mr. Grossman has been trained in traditional trial litigation and advocacy, as well as alternative dispute resolution options such as collaborative divorce, mediation, and arbitration.

Her Mission

To develop future leaders with character, by helping individuals break the grip of anxiety, and practice being excellent responders. Comparing life to the ocean makes my presentation thrilling and memorable.

Donna loves to tell stories with happy endings and she encourages others to do the same.
