1. Sometimes the things that feel life-ending and soul-shattering in the moment are the exact things that we really, really need.
2. I don’t regret any of the choices I’ve made in my life, even the ones that didn’t turn out the way I expected.
3. I will never let anyone make me feel like my divorce makes me “damaged” or gives me too much “baggage.”
4. Life is amazing and beautiful and unexpected (and also hard as fuck!)
5. Change is never ever comfortable but it is so essential for growth.
6. Goddamn… I looked good on my wedding day!

Love and support to any divorcees– my divorce felt crushing in the moment, but I am now so grateful for it! That doesn’t mean it was (or is) easy… but it was truly the best thing for me.

Now off to celebrate and eat some cake. Cheers!
