A Powerful Divorce

Reclaim your voice. Rebuild your life. Rewrite your story.

By Barbara L. Parker MA, LPCC-S

About the Book A Powerful Divorce isn’t just about leaving a marriage — it’s about reclaiming the pieces of yourself you gave away to keep the peace, play small, or stay silent. This raw, relatable, and deeply honest self-help memoir walks readers through the emotional, financial, and spiritual aftermath of divorce — and the powerful process of becoming whole again. From recognizing toxic peace to redefining intimacy, from silent dinners to unshakable boundaries, Barbara L. Parker shares her personal journey of heartbreak and healing with the kind of transparency that makes you feel like you’re sitting across from a sister-friend who gets it.

✍🏽 A Note from the Author “Divorce didn’t break me. Silence did. Shame did. But when I stopped pretending, I started healing. And this book is proof that you can, too.”
