Girlfriends are the ones who are consistently there for you through the ups and downs of life. They are the ones who call you out when you are not living up to your potential, pick you up when life disappoints you, and throw the shower for your kids when the wedding or baby comes in whatever order that may be. Most importantly, girlfriends are the ones who have the staying power through your life through the dating, honeymoon, marriage, divorce, and remarriage phases of life. The reality is that women spend a significant part of their life without a partner – life before marriage, life after divorce, or life after the death of a spouse – and it is the girlfriends who see you through that. If you don’t have those girlfriends, it’s time to get some, prioritize them, and keep them. They are so important. Listen to Michelle’s message in this episode!

Divorce hits women harder particularly with their financial stability and career prospects. Women generally earn less than men for the same work and this disparity persists after divorce. With the loss of partner income post-divorce, single women struggle to cover all of the expenses of the household. Also, the pay gap causes single women to have less savings and retirement and fewer resources to accumulate future resources for such investments. Statistics show that women after divorce face greater challenges for advancement in their careers due to the increased responsibilities of single parenting and have more difficulty furthering education and professional development. All of these factors combine to make the risk factors high for women after divorce to fall into poverty and have trouble getting out.

Michelle O’Neil has been a champion for divorced women throughout the span of her entire 30+ year as a divorce litigation attorney.
