I understand what you are going through.
I went through a divorce several years ago. I had two toddlers, no family in the town where l lived, and barely any online resources. That’s why l created Divorced Girl Smiling: a place you can go to find TRUSTED, VETTED divorce professionals, a podcast, articles, and a community of people going through what you’re going through.
I’m a former Chicago Tribune columnist and TV news reporter, who took my pain and turned it into a company to help YOU. It’s my personal mission to help those facing divorce to feel less isolated and alone, and to help you get through your divorce as smoothly as possible, and with a good outcome, so that you can live a happy, healthy post-divorce life.
I wish you all the best in your divorce journey!
Sincerely,
