Are we ready to start 2022?
Thankfully 2021 is in the books. It was a rough year for more than the reason of COVID-19 – you and your spouse finalized your divorce, closed a chapter in your life, and opened a new one.
With this new chapter comes many unknowns, and often we see that taking the first step in this chapter is the hardest.
When a couple chooses to use the collaborative divorce process, they are supported by a team of experts – family law attorneys, neutral financials, mental health experts and divorce coaches.
When you choose family law mediation, the mediator remains neutral throughout the process.
When the divorce is finalized, couples often feel not only has their family been kept intact, but they are equipped to move forward.
Here are some suggestions on how we work with our clients to move forward after their divorce is finalized:
• Develop a plan to continue working on improving your emotional and physical health
• Revisit your monthly budget, make adjustments that can help you stay on track
• Find ways to take time for self-care – journaling, exercising, or meditating
• Work with your spouse in co-parenting your children – continue to be united when it comes to your children
• Find ways to forge new relationships with your children – find your joy with them – even in the small moments
Working on these points can help you heal and move forward in 2022.
