Letter from the Editor: Twelve Months In

This issue marks twelve months of Divorce Guide Magazine this year, and Iโ€™ve been doing what December tends to make all of us do: looking back.

Over these twelve issues, weโ€™ve covered everything from finances and co-parenting to the holidays, dating again and finding your footing in a new chapter. Weโ€™ve featured dozens of experts and shared their stories and insights, and weโ€™ve tried to make each issue something you could actually use, not just read. Some months that meant practical checklists. Other months it meant reminding you that youโ€™re not doing this alone.

What strikes me most, looking back, is how different every divorce is, and how much people still have in common. The questions change, but the need for clear information and a little reassurance doesnโ€™t. Thatโ€™s what weโ€™ll keep giving you.

Thereโ€™s a lot ahead. The biggest news: our book, Divorce Happens: A Compassionate Guide to Starting Fresh, arrives in August 2027, and youโ€™ll see more about it in these pages as launch gets closer. Weโ€™re also working on a few new things, including some new ways for you to get involved, and Iโ€™ll share more as each one comes together.

Before then, one more thank you, because it bears repeating. To our readers: thank you for opening these pages, for writing in, and for passing the magazine along to someone who needed it. Youโ€™re the reason it exists, and you shape what we publish. If thereโ€™s something youโ€™d like to see more of next year, Iโ€™d genuinely like to hear it.

However youโ€™re spending the end of this year โ€” celebrating, getting through it, or somewhere in between โ€” I hope youโ€™re gentle with yourself. A new year doesnโ€™t require a new you. Sometimes itโ€™s enough to just keep going.

See you in January,

Jenny Dreizen
