A Woman's Guide to Surviving Divorce is a refreshing and down to earth take on Divorce. It is a fictional portrayal of the very real grieving process a woman goes through when faced with the loss of her marriage. It validates the reader's thoughts and emotions through the lens of a woman's experience. As she reads, she will work her way through the feelings that invariably come with Separation or Divorce. This book then offers a roadmap to guide the reader through the process of re-defining herself and her life; empowering her to make healthy choices and create a gratifying future for herself and her family.

Since the beginning of time, women have had to carry the majority of the load. Now, I'm not bashing men or their roles in the home, but it's just what we were created to do. Because of this, when a marriage is dissolved, she often carries the brunt of all associated pain, grief, and hardship as well. This book was written to help women successfully survive the fallout of divorce, and the other matters we uniquely face.

This journal was created to accompany the book and serves to help readers express their emotions, answer the questions in the book, and document their healing journey.

This book is dedicated to the resilient spirits who have journeyed through the intricate paths of marriage, divorce, and self-discovery. It is a tribute to the lessons learned from my 20 years of marriage, the profound peace that came when my ex-partner, a cancer survivor, embarked on a new journey to find her soul, and my continued quest for someone who appreciates the depth of my love, desires, and aspirations for happiness. As a child who witnessed the turmoil of a horrific divorce, who experienced a swift divorce in pursuit of happiness, and who has listened to the stories of dates, friends, and others, I understand the complex tapestry of emotions and experiences that divorce weaves into our lives. This book is written with the hope to inspire change, to encourage pursuit of happiness, and to be a testament that life is too short not to love profoundly and authentically. May it serve as a guide and a beacon of hope for those seeking to rise above the challenges of divorce, and as a reminder that we all have the power to be role models of love, resilience, and grace. To everyone who has ever loved, lost, and dared to love again - this is for you.
