Thank you guys so much for supporting me since I opened up about my divorce. Your messages mean everything. 💕 Here’s a little gist of what it cost me to leave my husband with three kids and start all over by myself. Living in one of the most expensive parts of New Jersey, getting a three bedroom apartment was NOT cheap and trying to make it work for a whole year while paying for lawyer fees, daycare, new furniture, and just adjusting to life as a single mom really set me back. No, I don't get child support. That's another story for another day. If I could go back, I would have moved into my mom’s house from day one. But honestly 😅 Trying to live on my own taught me so much. I feel like this crazy strong, resilient person who can get through anything now. I’m not someone who’s super savvy with finances, but I created a really simple budget sheet that I print out and scribble all over every month. It’s nothing fancy just something to help me track everything when I feel overwhelmed. It’s free to download, link in my bio. 🤍 I’m also working on diversifying my income. Content creation as a full time job takes so much of my time, so I’m leaning into affiliate links and TikTok Shop going from posting once or twice a day to 5 or 10 times a day. I’ll do a whole separate video on that soon. Thank you guys for being here. I love you. 🩷 #singlemomlife #healingloudly #divorcerecovery #financialrebuild #rebuildinglife
