I’m glad to announce that starting from this Monday, June 23rd, we are resuming the weekly zoom meetups.
For more than two years, we have gathered online as a supportive community, providing a safe space where spouses in stressful marriages can share their experiences of marital neglect and unjust treatment. In these virtual meetings, members have found solace in knowing they are not alone in their struggles. Each person brings a unique perspective shaped by their own hardships, yet through meaningful conversations, many have discovered the profound value of connecting with others who truly understand their pain.
By engaging with fellow members who have endured similar challenges, individuals have encountered not just sympathy, but genuine empathy—an acknowledgment of their difficulties from those who have lived through them firsthand. This shared understanding fosters a sense of belonging and validation, empowering members to navigate their circumstances with renewed strength.
As we resume our weekly gatherings, we continue to uphold this tradition of mutual support, ensuring that every voice is heard and every story is respected.
A different way to carry on divorce support groups
There are numerous support groups and organizations dedicated to helping individuals navigate divorce, including both free and affordable options available in person or on platforms like Meetup. While these groups provide valuable assistance, their approaches often fall into two categories: those focusing solely on the legal mechanics of divorce and those centered on post-divorce recovery—helping individuals heal after the emotional and financial consequences have already taken their toll. These resources are essential, but they frequently come into play only after the damage has been done, leaving individuals to navigate the complexities of rebuilding their lives.
Our approach, however, differs fundamentally. Rather than waiting until divorce becomes inevitable, we emphasize proactive preparation—not just in legal and financial terms, but in understanding the personal, family, and marital dynamics at play. Before making such a significant decision, it is crucial to assess the true pros and cons of divorce, ensuring that emotions, pain, or frustration do not cloud judgment. In some cases, individuals may be so hurt that they struggle to see opportunities for repair and improvement within the marriage. Conversely, some may unknowingly enable destructive behaviors that, if left unaddressed, would continue to harm them in the future—even beyond divorce.
By fostering this deeper awareness, we help individuals gain clarity on their situation before taking decisive action. This allows them to determine whether divorce is truly the right path or whether there are viable alternatives for change. If separation is inevitable, preparation becomes essential—not just emotionally, but strategically. Divorce is more than an emotional or legal separation; it is a complex negotiation where key decisions about financial settlements, asset division, spousal support, and other legal obligations shape the future. Without prior understanding, many individuals enter this process unprepared, risking unfavorable agreements that could impact their financial and emotional stability.
Our mission is to empower individuals with knowledge, strategies, and emotional resilience so that they can approach negotiations with confidence and control rather than being swept away by uncertainty or reactive decision-making. By taking charge early and understanding the elements negotiated during divorce, individuals can protect themselves proactively rather than struggle with damage control afterward. The goal is not just to survive divorce, but to navigate it as a planned, structured transition—ensuring financial security, emotional clarity, and personal agency remain intact throughout the process.

Different way to connect
After having host for years peer-to-peer support meetings, where everyone has the chance to share their stories and receive feedback, in a kind of 12-steps groups, recently we tried live webinars/workshops, with a moderator speaking and providing useful teachings about relationships, toxic interactions, and divorce information.
We are adding new ways to make the conversation more engaging and fruitful, so we plan to do a mix of events: sharing groups and webinar.
When you register to an event, check what kind of event suits you better, if not all, like having access to the mic or just listening. Some of the events will also be available on facebook.
And remember, subscribe to the youtube channel or, if works better for you, our instagram or tiktok channel.
