Divorce can feel overwhelming, especially when financial questions start to surface. Having the right information can help bring clarity during a time of change.

I’ve created a resource:
The Smart Women’s Guide to Divorce

It covers important financial considerations to be aware of along the way.

Divorce often comes with a long checklist—but not everything is always addressed as thoroughly as it should be.

I’ve seen situations where important financial details were overlooked simply because there was so much happening at once.

Things like account ownership, beneficiary designations, or how certain assets are transferred can have long-term implications if missed.

Taking the time to review the full financial picture—even after everything is finalized—can make a meaningful difference down the road.

If this season of life has taught you anything, it’s probably this:

Things can change quickly.

Having clarity around your finances doesn’t solve everything—but it can help you move forward with more direction.

If you’ve been meaning to revisit things, this might be a good time to start

Following up can feel uncomfortable.

I see this often—not just in my work, but in life transitions in general.

Whether it’s:
• Following up on paperwork
• Reaching out for help
• Asking a second question

Sometimes that next step is where clarity starts.

If you’ve downloaded my divorce guide recently—thank you.

I know it can be a lot to take in.

If you have questions after reading it, or something didn’t quite make sense, I’m always happy to talk it through.

You don’t have to navigate it alone.

One thing I’ve learned working with women in transition:

It’s rarely just about the numbers.

It’s about:
• Understanding what you have
• Knowing what comes next
• Feeling informed enough to make decisions

If you could go back to the beginning of a major life transition and give yourself one piece of advice… what would it be?

Your answer might help someone else who’s going through it right now.

One of the most common things I hear from women going through divorce:

“I didn’t even know what questions to ask.”

And that makes sense—this isn’t something most people are prepared for.

If you're in this stage, you're not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out all at once.

A surprising situation I’ve seen more than once:

Someone goes through a divorce… and years later discovers a retirement account that was never transferred.

It happens more often than you’d think.

Between paperwork, emotions, and timing, things can get missed.

If you’ve been through a divorce, it may be worth revisiting:
• Were all accounts identified?
• Were transfers fully completed?
• Do you have documentation?

Small details can have a lasting impact.
