My relationship journey has had many ups and downs. I've had a marriage that ended in divorce, intimate relationships that led to my having children by multiple women, exchanges with friends that left me feeling drained and confused, and business partnerships that resulted in gridlock. When I consider my relationships with family and friends, I've come to realize that sometimes those who are closest to you can hurt you the most.And although one might think you should be able to turn to family for refuge or support, there are times family members are manipulative and, making it clear that "just cause we kin, don't make us friends." At my rock bottom, I became very frustrated and so discontent that I knew it was time to have a conversation with the person in the mirror, realizing the common denominator in all of these relationships was ME. When we hear the word "relationship," the first thing that comes to mind is romantic relationships. True enough, our relationship with our significant other gets most of our attention, time, and energy. What we don't realize is that every relationship in our lives - parental, familial, social, professional and others are affected by our first and most important relationship...the one we have with ourselves.I'm excited to share my experiences good, bad, and indifferent in order to inspire change that starts with SELF. I hope to encourage you to take inventory of the things around you that you can control and not be controlled by the things around you. This means taking accountability for our choices, setting healthy boundaries, and giving ourselves permission to realign or redefine our WHY so that the outcomes line up more closely with our intentions. This is how to build a divine foundation of self that better serves us. Only then can we let our foundation lead the way and not allow people, situations, or circumstances to dictate our responses to life.It all lends to our growth and is a part of the process. Loving the way God intends versus how we feel. This is how we build better families, better households, and better communities.

The Kid Chronicles is an anthology of short stories embedded in a novel. I wrote the book this way for a few reasons. First, I incorporated the short stories to entertain the reader while highlighting social issues. Each short story teaches a lesson that is relevant to the life of a pre-teen and teenager living in an urban area.     Secondly, the main story is aimed to heal mother-son relationships that have been fractured by the stress and strain of the son's misbehavior at school. Some urban schools are plagued with behavior problems that interfere with the learning process, and many educators and parents struggle with finding ways to address undesirable behavioral patterns at school.      The main story shows how a mother and son can maintain a healthy relationship or recharge the relationship after a setback. Mothers learn to support boys in making healthy choices at school.      Lastly, the short stories and the main story have content reflective of situations that many young people face, such as: coping after a tragedy, handling conflict with a classmate, managing grief, developing self-control and controlling impulsivity.       The book is full of violent situations, so it is imperative that parents or adults read the book before allowing young readers to read the book. Hopefully, the interaction between the mothers and sons will start healthy conversations that will bring healing and understanding.

Hi, I'm Pandemic Mom.When the Covid Pandemic first hit the United States, Marianna Pease was about six months pregnant with her first child. She gave birth to her daughter during the first wave of the Pandemic in June 2020 when the rules of the virus where still new and fear was in the air. She asked her midwife if she would have to give birth wearing a face mask and was warned by a nurse one night in a 9pm phone call she may need to give birth alone.Later, she took care of her infant alone in quarantine lockdowns during early Covid after a traumatic separation and almost three year long divorce.May you have the courage to awaken to your personal power again, in time. "Pandemic Mom" is one part memoir, one part healing balm for the divorcing woman or new mama or any woman who finds herself in a dark night of the soul without a light.

It is not a tell all but a story of emotional healing and written from the heart to give back to divorcing woman so they might not suffer as she did.

As a therapist who works with women navigating divorce, I can't wait to recommend this book to my clients." - Oona Metz, LICSW, www.oonametz.com"Oh, how I wish my mother had this book during her divorce!

This book provides the context as to why the Family Court in England and Wales approaches awards of maintenance in the way that it does. The law remains as set out in Section 25 (as amended in 1984) of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973. The book looks at why there have been so many apparently different approaches as to its implication since 1973. It includes a review the history of maintenance in this jurisdiction to give a context as to how we arrived at the current state of practice as set out in the 1973 Act.Also discussed are the significant changes in society since the first statute allowing the courts to award maintenance namely the Matrimonial Causes Act 1857.Finally, there is a review of current judicial thinking and approach on this difficult aspect of the financial remedies available following the breakdown of marriage, with consideration being given to the international context of spousal maintenance.This updated second edition covers the latest developments including the introduction of no fault divorce in April 2022 in accordance with the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 which means that on dissolution of a marriage or civil partnership the parties are granted a conditional order and final order of divorce, and that prior to the grant of the final order a financial agreement must be settled.ABOUT THE AUTHORLiz Cowell has over 30 years' experience in the practice of Family Law. She has lectured on spousal maintenance in the jurisdiction of England and Wales to fellow Family Practitioners for more than a decade. She has had experience of sitting on the Child Support Act Tribunal and, since the year 2000, has sat as a Deputy District Judge.Her interest in the Family Court's approach to spousal maintenance was sparked following anecdotal research done during the noughties, which demonstrated marked differences in the approach to spousal maintenance across the jurisdiction, in addition to a conference on the topic organised by Resolution, which further highlighted the problems encountered by many practitioners.Liz has built up a practice assisting clients facing issues with the Child Support Agency (as it was known then), and subsequently, has worked with parents who have been in need of help with the Child Maintenance Service. She is qualified as a Family Law Arbitrator, and is a firm believer in Arbitration as a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).CONTENTSChapter 1 - IntroductionChapter 2 - HistoryChapter 3 - The Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 ("MCA 1973")Chapter 4 - The Statute and the RulesChapter 5 - Maintenance Pending Suit and Interim Periodical PaymentsChapter 6 - Applications Pursuant to Section 23 Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 for Periodical Payments of MaintenanceChapter 7 - The Clean Break ProblemChapter 8 - The Problems Surrounding Sharing the Payer's IncomeChapter 9 - Needs Are ElasticChapter 10 - Bonuses and How They Affect MaintenanceChapter 11 - CohabitationChapter 12 - Variation of Periodical PaymentsChapter 13 - CapitalisationChapter 14 - The Treatment of Bonuses in Financial SettlementChapter 15 - PensionsChapter 16 - BankruptcyChapter 17 - The Child Support Act 1991
