Hi everyone, a few weeks ago I was moving furniture around and remembered that I had stored many of my divorce self help books in a trunk I was using as a coffee table. Ya, I’m a little bohemian. When I bought these books on Amazon I was hungry for help with my situation. Books are like therapy, right?
Co-parenting, money management, alienation and did I mention co-parenting? Those were just a few of the areas I needed help with. They’re all in good shape and have been well read by me and some people before me (gently used). I was going to donate them to the thrift store and then thought about YOU, my readers. Perhaps these books will be much needed by my loyal subscribers. I’m certain you will appreciate one of these awesome divorce resources…

October 7, 2014 at 6:40 pmLoving this… Would love any encouraging books. No kids, professional woman and a small business. Husband planned on leaving me. Now he is seeking balance as he puts it. Not in the house…we are divorcing and it is a very good decision. Thank you!

September 9, 2014 at 11:26 amIt feels so good to do a clean out when we are ready! Actually long after we are ready …. I just got rid of a pile about dating! I’ve been married for 5 years!
Sometimes it takes a while 🙂

September 9, 2014 at 3:47 pmHaha, that’s about it Val. I’m not sure why I still have these books. I’m happy they will help other women though. Thanks for stopping over!

September 9, 2014 at 10:14 am“Broken Open, How Difficult Times Can Help Us Grow” by Elizabeth Lesser was wonderful to ready. I’ve re-read it actually. And the gorgeous “You Can Heal Your Life” by Louise L. Hay is just beautiful and good for the soul.
If it’s an abusive (verbal) situation you’re leaving, I remember reading “You Can’t Say that To Me” many many years ago…don’t recall who wrote it or where my copy went though.
