In Part 2 of Episode 155/156, Matthew Brickman speaks with entrepreneur and Best Interest App founder Sol Kennedy for a powerful conversation about how AI and apps are already reshaping the future of family law.
Drawing from his own high-conflict divorce experience, Sol explains how the Best Interest App uses AI to help co-parents reduce emotional triggers, filter toxic communication, and stay focused on what truly matters: the best interests of the children.
Matthew and Sol dive deep into:
- The psychology of co-parent conflict
- Emotional triggers during divorce
- AI-powered communication moderation
- Differences between Best Interest and apps like OurFamilyWizard & Talking Parents
- Solo-mode communication tools
- Parenting plans and mediation
- How courts and mediators use co-parenting apps
- Why reducing conflict early can change a child’s future
This episode blends technology, psychology, mediation, and real-world family dynamics into one fascinating discussion about the future of co-parenting support systems.
If you’re a parent, mediator, attorney, therapist, or simply interested in how AI is transforming human communication, this conversation is a must-listen.
