Synopsis

The end of a significant relationship marks a time of uncertainty and confusion for many people.  Too often it’s easy to become preoccupied with questions of blame, feelings of inadequacy, overwhelming anger, or other emotions that complicate or prevent the ability to make positive steps forward in life.

In Thriving After Divorce, Tonja Evetts Weimer offers a new paradigm for thinking about, understanding and navigating through a breakup.  Divorce, while devastating, can be a unique opportunity for personal transformation, and unlike many other transitions in life, it can allow the possibility to direct what that change will be.

Using a concept called the ‘Tao of Divorce’, Weimer guides the reader through the stages of a breakup to allow more meaningful relationships with others, and ultimately, a richer and more fulfilling life for oneself.  Weimer shows readers how to deal with shared responsibilities involving children, mutual business interests, the care of family members, and other situations that require a new relationship with the former partner.

Thriving After Divorce speaks to anyone who has gone through a breakup, providing hope, alternatives, empowerment, and inspiration to turn the inherent struggles of divorce into a triumph of personal growth.
