#098 The Optimist's Guide To Divorce with Jill Sockwell

Jill Sockwell and her co-author Suzanne Riss were both divorced and looking for advice that was uplifting, and inspiring. Answers that were realistic and true to life that they themselves could put into place so they could navigate this challenging process called divorce. They couldn't find this advice or the resources to match their requirements, so they wrote their book 'The Optimist's Guide To Divorce', which is a 'how-to' for people going through a divorce. Jill describes the divorce process as a marathon not a sprint and there can be a variety of solutions for the diverse challenges that divorce presents. Attitude is everything and it can be so easy to get caught up in the negatives, however if you try and look on the bright side, look for the best in this difficult situation then the process can be a little easier to deal with. Breaking up can be an isolating experience initially so Jill and Suzanne started their Maplewood Divorce club in March 2103 so that women could come together and support and help each other through the challenging and testing process. One tip that Jill would offer women going through a divorce is that it's going to get better and look for ways to grown and change for the better from this difficult experience, some days are going to be better than others. Choose to look for the positives and one way to do this is to start a gratitude journal, even when you are not feeling amazing or ok, looking back over what you have written, all the good that is happening in your life will lift your mood You can purchase the book 'The Optimist's Guide To Divorce' @ www.optimistsguidetodivorce.com and follow on Facebook @optimistsguidetodivorce
