In this episode, Rhonda welcomes Amee Quiriconi. Amee is an advocate, business consultant, speaker, author, and the owner of Activity Girl, LLC. Amee has been divorced twice and has learned valuable lessons from each experience.

According to Amee, divorce is emotional. We have to find space in our divorce process to breathe, to calm down, and to come back to the really hard decisions that we have to make when we are not amplified, and elevated, stressed down, and depressed.

Here are some of her thoughts and recommendations:

1. Support system is invaluable. It is hard to do this on your own, especially in a high-conflict situation. We have to figure out where can we get resources of people that are not in the swirl, in the perimeter of the hurricane, but are sitting safely and calmly in the middle.
2. Divorce is hard. And if you haven't done therapy or counseling for the duration of your divorce, I highly recommend finding somebody who can help you with that because divorce is triggering a lot of things in us.
3. Pivot, stop and think about what you're doing. Treat it like a business. We have to be able to evaluate what is the cost – emotionally, financially… and what is the potential of returning our investment.

Our guest today was Amee Quiriconi, Business Consultant, Speaker, and Autor, the owner of Activity Girl LCC.

Here's how Amee describes herself: Unfortunately, I've divorced a couple of times and had to deal with financial abuse before and

during a divorce. My financial turnaround in my life was of the hardest things to do, but it happened. I am an advocate for women and their financial independence, even if happily married because you never know when life will happen, and you will need to support yourself (and maybe kids) all on your own.

Our host of Divorce Conversations for Women Podcast is Rhonda Noordyk, CFEI, CDFA®

Rhonda Noordyk's relentless pursuit of financial justice for women going through divorce drove her to leave the financial industry in 2014 to open The Women's Financial Wellness Center. She was in search of a better way. She used her knowledge, passion, and experience to build a leading-edge business model. The intention was to create a business that provided a safe place for women - especially those in a vulnerable position - to find their paths, find their voices and find the financial confidence they need to lift themselves out of seemingly hopeless situations. Since starting the Women's Financial Wellness Center, after a 10+ year career in the financial industry, she has helped alleviate financial vulnerability for thousands of women.

In addition to being the CEO of The Women's Financial Wellness Center, Rhonda is also a professional speaker. While her platform is women's money wellness, it is not just about money. Her topics include: assertive communication, boundaries, leadership and overcoming financial myths. Her speaking experience includes: GE Healthcare, UWM Women's Leadership Conference and Marquette Law School. In addition, she has appeared on Fox6 News, Real Milwaukee, and Morning Blend. Her dynamic and inspirational style leaves women with a sense of empowerment.
