Book Description
When my husband and I were divorcing, the only thing we agreed on was that "he did not like me and I did not like myself." Twenty-four years after saying "I Do," I said "I Don't." That decision propelled my on a spiritual, healing, mystical journey that continues to enrich my life. Healing during and after divorce or any trauma can be very challenging, even when you know it is in the best interest of everyone concerned. I wanted to figure out why I chose this particular person to marry, and how to make a more educated choice in the future. Those thought systems led me on a healing, self-discovery journey. After my ex-husband spoke through a medium and said, "Sign up on the internet for your book," I decided to follow his advice! My wish is that this workbook will be a road map on your journey to empowerment.

Book Description
Ground-breaking book that takes an innovative look at divorce. His divorce experience is separated from hers with clear, illuminating explanations of just how women unwittingly improve their psychological health after coping with divorce. Full of personal interviews & fascinating research, THE SILVER LINING tells the reader precisely why women accomplish this improved health, looking at some of the important differences in losses, activities & coping. For instance, he loses the social & emotional support she provided, she loses the economic support he provided; he works to find new social support in another relationship, she is forced to work on her finances; he masks & distracts himself from the emotional pain of divorce, she confronts it & expresses it. And finally, losses he will never have: the subtle consequences of his domination, freeing her to take charge of a new life. "I give this book to my women clients. It's hopeful & inspiring."--attorney practicing family law. "This is the book that made sense out of my divorce! After I read this I knew I was on the right track"--woman reader, newly divorced.

Book Description
Hailed as “one of the best writers in the business” by Susan Elizabeth Phillips, multi-award-winning author Maggie Osborne delivers hilarious and heartrending tales of resilient women full of grit, pride, and dignity who shine through hard times. Now meet the most irresistible and independent heroine of them all, a woman called Low Down, who never had anything good happen to her until the day she asked for the one thing that only a man could give her. . . . As scruffy and rootless as the other prospectors searching for gold in the Rockies, Low Down wanted nothing in return for nursing a raggedy bunch through the pox. But when pressed to reveal her heart's wish, she admits, "I want a baby." Not a husband, not a forced marriage to the proud man who drew the scratched marble and became honor bound to marry her. To be sure, Max McCord was easy on the eyes, but he loved another woman and dreamed of a different life. Yet they agreed to a temporary marriage that could end only in disaster. But can this strange twist of fate lead to the silver lining that both have been searching for?

Book Description
After 20, 30, or even 40 years of marriage, countless vacations, raising well-adjusted children, and sharing property and finances, what could go wrong? Gray Divorce is a provocative look at the rising rate of marital splits after the age of 50. Renowned author and researcher Jocelyn Elise Crowley uncovers the reasons why men and women divorce—and the penalties and benefits that they receive for their choices. From the outside, many may ask why couples in mid-life and readying for retirement choose to make a drastic change in their marital status. Yet, nearly one out of every four divorces in the United States is “gray.” With a deft eye, Crowley analyzes the differing experiences of women and men in this mid-life transition—the seismic shift in individual priorities, the role of increased life expectancy, and how women are affected economically while men are affected socially. With a realistic yet passionate voice, Crowley shares the personal positive outlooks and the necessary supportive public policies that must be enacted to best help the newly divorced. Engaging and instructive, Gray Divorce is a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary American culture.
