From Amina Yusuf
51 • Minneapolis, MN • Divorce Mediator • Certified Family Facilitator
“You don’t need to agree to resolve. You need structure, safety, and truth.”
I’ve sat between couples who won’t look at each other. I’ve translated pain into proposals. And I’ve watched grown adults turn back into scared children when faced with legal paperwork they don’t understand.
Divorce doesn’t always need litigation. What it always needs is containment—a framework that keeps emotion from becoming destruction.
I mediate because I believe people want peace. They just don’t know how to find it when they feel attacked, misunderstood, or lost in legal fog.
The hardest part of my job? Chaos. Conflicting documents, no shared calendar, parenting plans written in anger. By the time people walk in, they’ve already built fortresses instead of bridges.
Splitifi has changed that for the better. When clients come in with timelines, synced communications, and structured financial records, I can do real work. We stop arguing about facts and start solving actual problems.
Mediation isn’t magic. It’s design. And Splitifi gives me the architecture to help people build something that lasts—even when their relationship doesn’t.
