If one of your friends is currently going through a difficult divorce, you have the opportunity to step up and support her through this challenging time.

However, there are certain rules to helping a friend through her divorce and so I’ve put together these tips on what NOT to say to help you, help her:

1. “What? I thought you were happy? You’ve been together so long/you seemed like the perfect couple!”

– Needless to say, this kind of comment is going to make matters worse. If it was your friend who ended the relationship this will only pile on the guilt and if not, you’ll be increasing the feeling that she’s had the rug pulled from under her feet and she’ll continue to question why this happened to her both of which will prevent her from letting go and moving on.

There are so many reasons why you should choose a new career after your divorce. Now is the perfect time to take stock of what you want from a career and create a plan to get the career you want to enable you to bounce back, become reinvented and ready to create a happier life.

Some of you may not have looked for a new job for quite a while and might feel a little intimidated at the prospect of looking for new opportunities, some of you may still feel that a woman’s place is not at work but let me tell you something; things have changed. This is the 21st Century and it’s a woman’s world.

More women are starting and successfully running small businesses than ever before, more women are leaders of big corporations and more women love their jobs; so you can too!

Q: Will my spouse and I be able to maintain the relationships with our mutual friends after the divorce?

A: Only in the rarest of instances can both partners maintain the same close friends they had as a couple prior to the divorce. Often the friends themselves feel divided in their loyalties. One or the other member of the couple tends to inherit any given friend. The other member of the couple tends to be estranged from that friend. Sometimes, one member of the couple will inherit all the friends. The other person will drift away and move onto something new.

Often, divorce heralds new values and new life directions—the very things that can make finding new friends almost mandatory.

Sometimes those getting divorced feel as if they've become enmeshed in pathological patterns, and decide that their friendships have been negative or stifling. Sometimes people feel as if they have been treated badly by the ex-spouse and friends alike. These individuals make a conscious effort to move on to find other friends so that they can pursue life in a healthier vein.

Have you discovered your purpose?

Many would-be entrepreneurs with great ideas suffer from paralysis early in their venture. They hit a stumbling block in one portion of their business, and the whole operation grinds to a halt. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Rather than letting setbacks cripple your endeavors, keep moving forward – even when it meant inches rather than miles.

You may find yours during a vacation this summer, or on a stroll through your own community. Have you discovered your purpose?

Imagine you're 80-years old and only have a month left to live. Look back on your life. What would you like to look back on? What do you want to be able to remember? Making a million dollars? Climbing Mount Everest? Starting a charity? Having happy, successful children?

"Every second that you live you are never going to get back. You are never going to get to change what you said, didn’t say, did, or didn’t do. Live how you want to live. Act how you want to be remembered, because you never know how long or short you are going to be here." – Emily Doberstein

Start making choices which will keep you going and growing in the right direction!

A few years ago, a conversation about the role of father’s in caregiving—how to make it more meaningful and easier — would have been difficult to imagine. But today’s fathers are rethinking their roles and trying to balance their family obligations in new ways.
