New Leaves : A Journal for the Suddenly Single Woman

A journal for the suddenly single. In the days and weeks following the end of a marriage, a woman can find herself confronted with paradoxical and conflicting awareness of grief and opportunity, freedom and loneliness, self-absorption and insecurity.

Friends can come closer or fade away, work can seem a burden or become a challenge.

Family may be both desperately needed and seemingly remote.

The end of a marriage, whether through death or divorce, finds a woman rethinking her identity, her purpose, her dreams and ambitions.

This is a journal for the woman in transition -- the transition from a "we" identity to a "me" identity.

The journal is divided into seven sections, each filled with topics to encourage the expression of feelings, thoughts and ideas, plans and experi-ences.

The sections include: A New Beginning; Myself; My Inner Circle; Men & Dating; Money & Career; Looking Good, Feeling Good; Looking Ahead.
