The 3 Most Important Pieces of Divorce Advice

Hello, it’s so good to see you

Here are some things about me that might give you a better frame of reference as you read.

 

California Girl

I was born and raised in the Bay Area, my first and last meal when I get back to the U.S. is always In-N-Out.

Aussie Aussie Aussie

The Gold Coast of Australia has been home for the past 15+ years and it will likely remain that way until my kids are grown.

Filipina

I’m super proud of my cultural heritage even though it doesn’t show up much here. Sadly, I don’t speak the language.

 

Freelance Writer

In my regular life, I do copywriting for small businesses. I get paid to explain stuff to regular people.

Student

I’m getting a Master’s in Marketing part-time. It’s like a less ethical version of psychology but I try to use what I learn for good rather than selling people things they don’t need.

Things I Love

Aside from my family and friends: Tumi luggage, Starbucks holiday cups, ‘How I Met Your Mother,’ and maple bar donuts.
