The Decade After
After nine years of marriage, Toyin M. Falusi, MD, a specialist in infectious diseases, found herself divorced and raising two young children. It was a trying, stressful time, but rather than accept the hackneyed stereotype of the miserable and overwrought single mom, Falusi chose to embrace her new existence.
Twelve years later, she’s still leading a happy, successful life. In The Decade After: Surviving Thriving after Divorce, she shares what she’s learned along the way.
While this is not a self-help manual, much inside will resonate with recently divorced women. It is also not exactly an advice book, although Falusi does offer tips and tactics to help you adjust to life after marriage breakdown and separation. Rather, this is an informal, often funny conversation, with Falusi expounding on such topics as raising well-adjusted kids, working with—not against—your ex-spouse, building a support system, and taking care of yourself.
Life does not end after divorce, nor does it have to plunge into stress, loneliness, and despair. Take it from Falusi—twelve years later, she’s still going strong. While she remains willing to entertain the possibility of a new serious relationship, she’s quite happy as she is—self-reliant, successful, and fulfilled!
