Why feel lost when we’re all here, your on-line supporters and friends? Lisa’s divorce support round-up promises to offer something for every kind of divorce; high conflict, co-Parenting with a jerk, looking for love, having trouble dealing with your off the charts, emotions? I could go on and on because the issues we face during divorce are infinite in their variety.
So, when you feel lost, you know that divorce friends are only a click away.
Today I wanted to highlight other bloggers, authors and coaches who specialize in divorce. Most all of these ladies and some men, have been through or are still going through the divorce trenches as we speak. I want you to have access to all the resources possible.
Divorce Stories from the trenches–Divorced Moms-a site featuring a variety of writers (including moi) and bloggers and where you will find every topic under the sun. You certainly will not feel alone after reading other women’s stories.
High conflict divorce–Tina Swithin-author of Divorcing A Narcissist: One Mom’s Battle, blogs periodically and has a wonderful and supportive team on face book where she answers questions regarding narcissism and high conflict divorce.
Co-Parenting with your abuser–Jane Thrive at Survive, Live, Thrive-Jane writes under a pseudonym and therefore shares her personal struggles without a filter. If you’re co-parenting with a high conflict ex, stop over and read Jane’s stories. You will be inspired to do better. You will be reminded to always put the children first.
Life after divorce–Live By Surprise-Liv is a lively blogger and her enthusiasm for life after divorce is contagious. So, if you’re looking for inspiration and wondering what it’s like to finally get to the other side, you’ll love Liv’s blog.
Divorce Coaching–Tara Eisenhard-Tara refers to herself as a divorce encouragist. Isn’t that wonderful? Her recent article why I love divorce, speaks volumes about her attitude about what is normally a loathed experience. She is a child of divorce as well and this gives her a unique perspective. Her book, The D Word: Divorce Through A Child’s Eyes promises to be an inspiring read.
Emotional Support–Balroop Singh at Emotional Shadows- Balroop gives practical advice on managing emotions either through her poetry or her personal stories that so many of us can relate to. I recommend her book Emotional Truths Of Relationships where she advises on managing anger, jealousy, forgiveness and many more emotions typical to divorce and other life struggles.
Legal Support-Brad Micklin-Micklin Law Group-Brad was kind enough to be interviewed here at The Great Escape and provide insider information on divorce law. Based out of New Jersey, he may be out of geographical reach for many but his blog and approachable law firm make them a great starting point.
Canadian Lawyers directory
Financial Planning and Divorce–Gail Vaz-Oxlade– host of TLC’s ‘Til Debt Do Us Part, this lady offers up no nonsense financial advice for people navigating the divorce process.
Finding Love after divorce or in mid-life-Katie Paul at Head, Heart, Health-Katie writes all about the dating scene post divorce and midlife. It is inspiring and she will encourage you to re-think old conventions and look at love in a new light.
Of course there are so many on-line resources for divorce support. Check out my Twitter Divorce Topics List for many more names and don’t forget to subscribe to my twitter list, while you’re at it.
Last but not least, have you picked up my book yet? If not, what are you waiting for? Amazon link here.
There ya go, you shouldn’t have to feel alone. Check out the blogs, introduce yourself to the lovely bloggers and writers. We always love to get new visitors and peeps who like to share their point of view. We’re all in this together, after all.

February 8, 2016 at 8:36 pmBalroop’s blog has been inspiring to me for many reasons over this past year or more. Another blog I’ve found helpful is Emotionally Resilient Living. The focus is on living better in general rather than focused on divorce. Being healthy and whole after huge life upsets is such hard work.

February 9, 2016 at 8:39 amHi Jeri, I agree with you on Balroop’s writing. It’s so uplifting and makes us think on why certain feelings come to the surface (incoveniently). I’ll have to check out your recommendation. It takes time to heal and recover from such a devastating change. p.s. Loved your guest post over at Considerings today.

February 5, 2016 at 11:27 amYou are so friggin awesome, Lisa. Not only for being THE go-to resource for so many dealing with one of life’s most difficult times BUT also for extending a hand to other bloggers, and connecting everyone in this beautiful way that you do. You rock, my friend 🙂
Hope you have a lovely weekend!
lisa
February 5, 2016 at 2:11 pmAw, thanks so much, Charlotte 🙂 Back at ya, Pixie! Have a great weekend!

February 5, 2016 at 7:33 amThank you Lisa! Emotional Shadows talks about all the emotions but I would like to clarify that I have been happily married for 35+ years. I have seen all those ups and downs and difference of opinions but our marriage stood like a rock because we trust each other, we are honest and respect each other. We express our opinions openly.
The success of a marriage depends on both the partners; if one is self-centred, rude or disrespectful and the other keeps bearing, it doesn’t survive.
Emotions are affected first of all and emotional hurts are the most difficult to heal…I make an effort to provide some friendly tips to cope with emotions.
Much love! Have a nice weekend.
lisa
February 5, 2016 at 7:50 amHi Balroop, Your Emotional Shadows has a healing effect for people going through emotional times. Divorce is one such time alright. Indeed, you are happily married! I didn’t mean to include you as a divorced woman 🙂 I certainly understand your clarification and BTW, you’ve officially shared your secret for a happy marriage—I love it! I couldn’t agree more with your description of why it works for you and your Hubs.
