69 Explosive Divorce Tips - The Divorcee’s Guide for Surviving Emotional Landmines by Carolyn M. Fox, Attorney

Divorce is brutal, especially for the one left behind, the divorcee. You can expect to experience a wide range of emotions that rock you to your core. Are you immobilized with shock and depression? Do you think you’re on a downward spiral? There are ways to navigate these emotional landmines and emerge a stronger person. "69 Explosive Divorce Tips" is a collection of sound suggestions to help you master your emotions and survive the divorce intact. “You’re going to be all right.” Those words, spoken by her attorney, gave author Carolyn Fox something to cling to when she was going through her divorce. Later, as an attorney herself, Fox ushered clients through the legal pathways of their divorces. She noticed that like herself, her clients were experiencing many of the same emotions, and they often followed the classic model of the five stages of grief. Fox details how divorcees move through denial, depression, fear, anger, and acceptance. It begins with the four words almost no one wants to hear, “I want a divorce,” and moves through practical tips that can be applied even when you’re at the end of your emotional rope. The tips range from surprisingly practical—crying only once a day in the shower—to unconventional—it’s okay, talk about your ex-spouse. As an attorney and divorcee who’s seen it all, Fox offers one more stage: hope. When you reach this stage, you’ll emerge a stronger, wiser person. The fires of the divorce process will forge positive personal change. Fox has seen it in her clients and in herself. Fox knows it takes time and effort to emerge a better, not bitter, person on the other side of a divorce, but she also knows you have it in you. She knows because, to her amazement, she found it in herself. It was after her divorce at age forty that she became an attorney, a motorcycle enthusiast, a licensed pilot, and an author. "69 Explosive Divorce Tips" offers hope and challenges you to live life to the fullest. Your new life awaits—what will it be?
