Happy National Singles Day, ladies and gentlemen! 💋
Today, we honor the courageous, independent, and confident individuals who understand that being single is not a burden — it’s a season of empowerment . It’s the liberty to shape your life precisely as you desire, without concessions, apologies, or a shared Netflix account. Gone are the days when being single meant “something’s missing.” Please. Being single means you’re not accepting less than you deserve . It’s about learning, growing, exploring, and knowing exactly who you

Do People Really Change… or Do They Just Settle?
We hear it all the time: "People don’t change," or "People truly can not change." Or the hopeful version: "People can change if they really want to." Somewhere between these beliefs lies an uncomfortable truth: many people don’t really change—they settle. They adjust, shrink, tolerate, and make peace with a life that doesn’t quite fit, all while telling themselves they’re "fine." But are they? Change vs. Settling: What’s the Difference? Change requires effort, discomfort, sel

Finding Your People: Making Friends Later in Life
There’s something beautifully ironic about adulthood — we spend our early years surrounded by people, yet as we get older, our circles often shrink. Between careers, family, moves, and life’s challenges (like divorce), it can suddenly feel like the world has grown quieter. But here’s the truth: it’s never too late to make friends — real friends who understand you, laugh with you, and show up when it counts. As adults, we carry more — more experiences, responsibilities, routin

When Your Ex Is Dating a Control Freak
Some of us are there, some of us have been there, and I have seen this situation waaaay too many times. It’s hard enough watching your ex move on. But when they start dating a control freak? Oh, honey, that’s a whole new level of entertainment and concern. Because while you’re over here breathing free air, healing, and rediscovering your peace, they’re diving headfirst into a relationship that feels more like a dictatorship. All the signs are there; You know the type. The one

Hold the phone: When you want to lash out.
Let’s be honest, sometimes you want to go the F off. Like, full-on unleash every thought, every insult, every truth bomb you’ve been holding in for way too long. Maybe it’s your ex pushing your buttons (again). Maybe it’s their new partner trying too hard. Maybe it’s just the universe testing your patience one text at a time. Whatever the trigger, you feel that familiar burn, the urge to fire back, to let them have it. No matter what triggers it, that familiar burning sensat

Taking a Pause
Let’s be real — life after divorce can feel like a marathon you didn’t train for. Everyone’s telling you to “get back out there,” “focus on yourself,” “start fresh,” and you’re just over here thinking, Can I get a nap first? Here’s the thing: you don’t have to hustle your way into healing. You don’t owe anyone productivity while you’re rebuilding your life. Sometimes, the most brilliant move you can make is to hit pause. Not a full-on, dramatic “I’m quitting life” pause — mor

Timing is Everything; Do You Think Your Time Is More Valuable Than Mine?
Love Me on My Time One of the hardest lessons after divorce isn’t about heartbreak, but it is about time. Time to heal.Time to rebuild.Time to figure out what actually feels good for you again. Time stops being something you waste. It becomes sacred. Every moment you give someone is a choice, not an obligation. And that’s why it hits differently when someone shows up only when it’s convenient for them. You know the type. They call you on their commute, but never when you actu
