We, the authors of Divorce For Ladies, Not For Losers, have seen the toll that divorce takes on families firsthand from the perspective of a compassionate divorce attorney, in the person of Cathe Evans Williams, as well as from the perspective of a participant, that of Ouida Yvonne Jones. We can say emphatically that if you choose to participate in a contested divorce war, without first attempting to handle the divorce amicably, you are being destructive and quite possibly putting yourself in a position to be emotionally, financially, and spiritually destroyed. While this may sound alarmist, the truth is probably much worse. Our families and communities are in crisis to a large degree because many people, both husbands and wives, choose to act like idiots when "I do" turns into "I dont". The fallout from these acrimonious divorces contributes in large part to our increasingly dysfunctional society.
Divorce for Ladies, Not for Losers approaches divorce from a more healing and holistic perspective. The book readily acknowledges (and discourages) the natural reaction of the gut reflex to "get him (or her)," the heart reflex to break, and the soul reflex to cry. At the same time it will encourage what appears to be a less natural reaction in the form of the spiritual opportunity to grow, and the wisdom to get on with the next chapter of your life, while providing laugh-out-loud humor to help the seeds of wisdom take root. Divorce for Ladies, Not for Losers also encourages women to take a good, hard look at themselves and the role they played in the development of and subsequent degeneration of the relationship, instead of just playing the victim card. It finally empowers you with the information and resources to come out on the other side of divorce as a strong, vibrant, whole, and complete beautiful woman who retains her mind, her integrity and her money.
If you are single, this book will help you examine, prior to getting married, what the costs are --both financial and emotional-- of a failed marriage. If you are married and not happy, this book will provide you with options to consider such as counseling, a trial separation or maybe even legal separation instead of just rushing into the divorce process. For those that know they want a divorce, this book will cause you to consider less destructive (and apparently less popular) methods of divorce--uncontested divorce, mediation and collaborative divorce. You will also find resources, definitions, procedures, examples and stories that make you go "hmm" and help you take your divorce into your own hands.
News Flash: The courts can only divide assets, divide debts, and determine custody of your children. Considering the adverse circumstances under which they are provided information in contested situations, the courts cannot truly know what is best for you or your family. They cannot assign blame. They cannot make him apologize to you. They cannot make the pain go away. They are a court of law, not a court of healing.
