"Suddenly Solo" doesn't have to mean "Alone"
I know what it's like to live through a very traumatic divorce.
During that time in my life, it became painfully clear to me that the
support and resources available to women and their children are very
hard to find and, even then, they lack the understanding and compassion
that can only come from those who have gone through it themselves. I
often felt alone, inadequate and, at times, unable to trust my own
judgement. I desperately needed a support network that went beyond that
of my well-meaning family and whatever friends I had that weren't too
uncomfortable to talk to me. I knew very few people who could relate to
what I was going through. I needed emotional, mental, physical,
financial, legal and even spiritual support and yet I was too
overwhelmed to find out how and where to get it.
Living through Separation and Divorce can feel as if you are on a
runaway train that will take you to places you never imagined, nor ever
intended to go. That is why I created Suddenly Solo, because I believe
that women need a place where they can get the help they need, regain
control of the process and, more importantly, their lives. Being newly
independent can be a scary feeling, but Suddenly Solo offers women and
their children a comforting and empowering alternative with unique
social networking and events, emotional support from professionals and
peers and practical support and guidance in the form of workshops,
lectures,and resources.
