Lea's Journey: Life After Divorce Part 2

So how does one reinvent oneself after divorce??

Learning to fly solo was a daunting experience.

After a long marriage that spanned longer then it should (36 years),

I never really felt the need to “know”…

From money to renovation to buying big ticket items it was taken care of, but I often thought at a price!

So the daunting of flying solo was my lack of knowledge, my doubt, not believing I can and could do it…( being married to a narcissist will instill all these beliefs)

I sought help, friends, family, professionals…

I decided to “learn” about all I needed, to allow me to navigate my solo life.

I had days where I would come home and was not sure if I can do “this” but I started feeling my freedom and my independence and I was determined to make “this” work.

Of course I had days where I would cry and feel bad at the hope of what I could of had and at the destruction of the family….but slowly, slowly I assumed a new role of being single and happily navigating my life as such
