Well…. You made it through Thanksgiving and Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanza, and whatever you celebrate is here. Depending on how "freshly" single you are, it can be a time of celebration or melancholy. Being around family may feel overwhelming. You may feel you need to spend some time on your...

What if the secret to happiness was hidden in a single day? Not in tomorrow, not in a five-year plan, but in how you choose to live today?

Sometimes, we can get stuck ruminating things. You know...? We get stuck in those negative mind loops. I've done my fair share. It really got bad when I was...

They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but I call shenanigans. 

When you come out of a divorce, you must learn new tricks! Your markers are gone. The future you'd imagine you'd have is gone. It's a perfect time to reassess how you want to run your life, especially if, like me, your...

Are you living your life or simply going through the motions? For years, I was in a constant loop—work, support my partner, run errands, collapse. Then, life forced me to start over. And I realized I’d never really thought about what I wanted my life to look like. When was the last...

What would you do if you had one hour every day just for yourself, with no obligations, no worries, and no one to please? Sometimes, it's easy to get swallowed up by a relationship and forget your needs and passions are important, too. That's what happened to me, and when I found myself single...

The mere thought of going back to dating today is enough to keep me celibate for the rest of my life. But I couldn’t wait to dive back in when my divorce went through. I reflected on my 10 years of marriage and saw everything I missed out on because we had been so busy working and building...

Isn’t it ironic how the one thing that once symbolized security—my marriage—turned into the very source of my financial anxiety? I always believed my money was under control until divorce threw a wrench in the equation. And it turns out I’m not the only one!

I have spoken...

I picked up a terrible habit when I went through my divorce: ruminating. I'd wake up around 2:00 in the morning and toss and turn until my alarm went off at 5:00. During that whole time, all I would do was imagine worst-case scenarios. At first, it was about my divorce. What's going to happen to...

What if I told you that the most painful chapter of my life became my greatest teacher? That I became the woman I am today because I experienced loss and heartache. That through this rediscovery, I attracted my Forever Love and have never been happier!

It may sound sappy, but it's the truth. As...

When my divorce went through, I had just a month before I was leaving for France to spend the holidays with my family. I didn't have much time to think about where I was, but I do remember standing in the middle of your new living room thinking, "Now What…?"

At the same time, I was excited...

I used to think that to be in a successful relationship, I had to hide or minimize parts of myself to make myself more acceptable. I'd say yes when I wanted to say no. I became a chameleon who adapted to whatever my husband wanted. So what happened? I forgot who I was.

Going through my divorce was one of the most challenging times of my life. I slept and ate poorly. I couldn't shut my mind. I mind-looped every conceivable worst-case scenario imaginable. I had to live under the same roof as my former husband, which made the atmosphere at home unbearably heavy...
