When my own marriage was ending, I once spent an entire week in bed.
And if I could have fit under the bed, I would have.
I remember thinking, why doesn’t anyone talk about what this is actually like?
My Story
15 years ago, I realized my marriage was unraveling. My divorce took three years, and it was harrowing. I had two young kids, a gruesome custody battle, extraordinary financial terror, and was still processing the recent deaths of my parents.
One of the biggest lessons I had to learn was to seek and accept support wherever it came from. I also had to be kind enough to myself to believe that I was worthy of that support.
The hardest part was not letting myself be consumed by fear, failure, and shame. I had a good education, a loving support system, and children I adored and would always protect, but the marriage still felt like a personal failure. Even though I had tried everything I could think of to save it, my marriage still ended. So, I had to compassionately fight my way through that shame to begin creating a new life.
Divorce turned out to be the most spiritually profound experience of my life. By ending my marriage and coming out the other side, I became the person I was meant to be: more knowing, more patient (particularly with myself), and incredibly knowledgeable about the different pieces of the divorce puzzle.
At first, my work as a divorce consultant was informal. Friends who were struggling with their marriages knew what I had gone through and would call me to hear about my experience, strength, and hope. Soon it was friends of friends.
I realized that I offered something unique: not only did I understand divorce from firsthand experience, but my deep empathy, spiritual journey, and finance background made me uniquely suited to navigate it all.
I do this work so others can move through divorce with more clarity and less strain.
Nine years post-divorce, I’m grateful to have come through it stronger, healthier, and more emotionally balanced than ever before, and I’m dedicated to paying that forward.

Clients often tell me the same thing:
They feel calmer.
Because they finally have someone who understands the full picture. We’ll talk through what’s happening, what matters most, and what needs to happen next.
Examples of tasks I help clients with:
Drafting emails to your ex, from birthday party plans to false accusations about spending
Evaluating practical custody schedule options
Identifying, interviewing, and choosing lawyers, therapists, and financial planners
Organizing questions, concerns, and documents for your attorney
Connecting you with a support network through UNtied’s divorce community
You’ll have someone you can reach out to when things come up — not just for the big decisions, but for the day-to-day moments that are just as hard.
This is one of the hardest transitions you’ll go through.
And you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
