about

Better Half to Whole provides online resources and support for the recently divorced including one on one support sessions and downloadable guides.

Coming soon is a 100% self paced online course for the recently divorced. This step by step guide includes managing the day to day, mobilizing a support system, and moving forward with a sense of stability and agency. The processes shared in Better Half to Whole are a deep insight into how I navigated my personal heartbreak. These resources are for YOU to take what works and make your own way forward through aftermath of divorce to wholeness. All the practical stuff that happens in your heart, home and social circle - I got you.
Better Half to Whole came from the charge to share the healing process that happens mostly in isolation; alone with our thoughts, in the therapist's office, commuting to work and going about the day to day. The things that no one tells you about and the things that no one really sees either.

MEET THE FOUNDER - MADISEN

When going through separation and divorce, I needed practical resources beyond advice about finances, court proceedings, or dating again. I was sifting through the messy stuff that no one could really help me with like trusting myself again, making decisions about wedding gifts, changing my name (or not), being self conscious about my grief ruining everyone’s fun, and so much more. 
Picture perpetual puffy eyelids, emotional whiplash, needing support but not wanting to be around people…but not wanting to be alone… My identity was so wrapped up in being someone’s “better half” that it took me a long time to get to get to a place of acceptance, but I made it. You will too.
These resources don't address co-parenting, recovering from intimate partner abuse, the legal process or managing your finances.
