What is my story? You all must be eager to know about my life, career, and how I got into this field of divorce coaching. I have myself experienced divorce in this lifetime. It wasn’t easy, but I got through every single moment of my life with optimism and positivity. With the same measures, I can help you as well, if you are looking to get your life sorted like me.
I’m a grateful single mother of three incredible adult kids and the Nana of three feisty grandkids who are my sunshine.
My time in the Air Force taught me resilience, discipline, and the power of perseverance, but nothing could have fully prepared me for the emotional battles of divorce—not once, but twice.
The first time, it felt like the weight of the whole world was on my shoulders. My kids were young, and suddenly, I found myself alone, staring down at a future I hadn’t planned for. The fear, uncertainty, and pain were overwhelming. I had no idea how I was going to rebuild, but I had no choice. I had to fight—for myself and for my children.
That’s when I reinvented my life, becoming a mortgage lender over 22 years ago to provide the income my family desperately needed. I pushed through, day by day, carrying the exhaustion of single parenthood and the scars of a broken marriage.
Just when I thought I had found peace again, after ten years of remarriage, I was thrown back into the depths of heartache with another divorce. The pain this time was deeper, and I felt like I had failed—not just in marriage but in believing that happiness could last.
It was a moment that could have broken me, but instead, it lit a fire within me. I realized then that so many people face this same gut-wrenching uncertainty, feeling lost and overwhelmed, unsure of how to move forward.
I changed my focus entirely to helping others through the storm of divorce, just as I had done for myself.
I realized that my struggles weren’t signs of failure—they were stepping stones to becoming stronger. I had learned so much through the pain and loneliness, and I knew that I wasn’t the only one who needed to hear that it’s possible to survive divorce and find joy at the end of the day.
That’s when I dedicated myself fully to helping others in the same situation. I became a Divorce Coach, a Missouri & Illinois Supreme Court-approved mediator, and a Certified Divorce Lending Professional, determined to make the process less overwhelming for others.
I’ve made it my mission to guide people not just through the legal or financial aspects of divorce, but through the emotional turmoil that comes with it.
Whether it’s helping you navigate complex decisions about your home or finding the strength to move forward when everything feels broken, I’ve been there.
I’m living proof that there is life after divorce—a life filled with new beginnings, happiness, and hope.
It’s messy, painful, and can tear you apart emotionally. But I’m here to tell you that you can get out of bed, face the day, become more fulfilled, and ready to embrace the life you’ve always deserved. You are worthy.
I’ve walked this path, and now I’m here to walk it with you. I’ll help you clear away the confusion, the pain, and the fear, and together, we’ll rebuild your life.
I know firsthand that divorce is a whirlwind of paperwork, counseling, court visits, and emotional exhaustion. But it doesn’t have to break you.
With the right guidance, you can come out the other side stronger, more confident, and ready to embrace the next chapter of your life. And I’m here to help you do just that.
Writing has also been a big part of my healing journey. Writing became my therapy, my way of releasing the chaos inside, and I encourage anyone going through this to do the same. It’s powerful. It’s healing. And it’s helped me find joy again.
I’m not just a coach; I’m a listener, an ally, and someone who has walked this path before.
Together, we’ll make this process as smooth as possible. So go to my calendar, schedule time with me…
Let’s start a conversation that helps you take your first step toward your brighter future.
