In Today’s Edition of Why I’m Single #TheSinglesChronicles
I know that I have an established category for my dating adventures here, but to be honest…most of them don’t have enough of a story to really warrant a full on blog post. However, I usually share them on Facebook for my friends and family to laugh over. Today’s story was just too funny not…

What I Wish I Knew Before My Divorce
This post is in collaboration with TIAA to empower women experiencing divorce, encouraging them to take control of their financial future. Every once in a while, I look back on my marriage and divorce process and I think to myself, “Dang, I got lucky.” You see, as awful as the end of my marriage was, I held…
