Navigating Life's Transitions

Post-Divorce

Wow, life isn’t turning out the way you thought it would and things like co-parenting, dating, finances, and being alone are a big adjustment. Even if you wanted the divorce there is healing to do, dreams to explore, and new relationships to navigate. 

Empty Nest

Well, it’s just the two of you now. The house seems quiet and there’s no one to distract you from you or your relationship with your partner. Are you anxious to reconnect or are you looking at each other asking “who are you?”

Career Change

Deciding to re-enter the workforce, change careers, or start your own business brings its own set of challenges. From feeling “not good enough” to brushing up your resume and prepping for interviews, it’s time to chase your dream.

Transition Is Moving From the Old to the New

And that means your next move can be your best move.

Life Can Bring So Many Changes:

  • Solo parenting and co-parenting
  • Loss of friends/family relationships
  • Enforcing terms of your settlement
  • Re-entering the job market or changing careers
  • Redefining yourself or your relationship 
  • Dating and sex
  • Managing money, taxes and retirement planning
  • Loneliness
  • and so much more…

Hi, I'm Debra

I’m a CDC Certified Divorce Coach® and a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®. I’ve been through 2 divorces, have been a single parent, a co-parent, and a step-parent. I’ve also been a stay-at-home parent, worked part-time, full-time and started my own business.

I’ve successfully transitioned through many difficult life changes and I can help you too. Together we can discover what you truly want out of this next phase of your life and create a plan to make it happen. Life transitions are a great opportunity to point yourself in a new direction.

The right kind of support means getting you on the right path more quickly and with a clear vision.

Life After Divorce

The papers are all signed and the divorce is final, but you still have pieces of your life to put back together. Especially if your divorce was difficult, you’re trying to co-parent with a high-conflict partner, or you’re adjusting to living on less. A successful post-divorce recovery is about more than just balancing your budget and your schedule. It’s about looking back at the lessons you learned and moving ahead to create a life that feels good to you. Life after divorce might mean opening yourself up to new experiences like dating, a career change or business opportunity, and new friendships. This is your chance to reboot.

It's Just Us Now

School, sports, schedules, and parenting can easily become the center of our lives when raising children. But what happens when they leave for college or take off on their own? Is it time rediscover who you are and what you want out of life? If you were used to putting yourself last, this is your opportunity to prioritize your own needs and seek your own happiness. Or maybe you and your partner realize how far you’ve drifted apart and want to find a way to reconnect. This new phase of life is the perfect chance to re-evaluate where you’ve been and make adjustments so the next phase of life can be your most fulfilling yet.

Back to Work

Re-entering the job market after divorce or when the kids are older is a big adjustment. If it’s been a while since you’ve been in the workforce, are your skills still in demand? Are you up-to-date on technology? Do you know how your skills and strengths match up with what employers are looking for today? How’s your resume? Or are you thinking about starting your own business? There are so many options today for creating your own path and designing a career that supports your heart and your bank account. Let’s dive into your goals, your dreams and your financial needs to see what the next right step is for you.

Client Success Stories

Working with Debra was just what I needed to make the post-divorce career change I had been putting off. She calmed my sense of overwhelm, helped me clarify my goals and then walked with me step by step until I accomplished what I set out to do. Not only am I about to double my income, but I feel confident and secure about my financial future. Debra makes you feel completely supported, but make no mistake, she is also a powerful accountability partner for those who want to get things done.
Julia
Co-parenting was a nightmare for me. I thought he had made the divorce difficult, but trying to communicate and coordinate about the children was...well, frustrating doesn't even begin to describe it. Debra helped me define and enforce my boundaries so I didn't feel constant resentment. She also helped me create scripts so I was able to communicate in a firm, but friendly way. I felt as if I regained my voice, my power, and my peace. I was able to get on with my life instead of being caught up in my anger at him.
