Discovering Diamonds: A Story of Compassionate Divorce by Sarene B. Arias

According to the American Psychological Association, approximately 40-50% of marriages end in divorce.

By the time a marriage dissolves, when love is replaced by fighting, slammed doors, and name-calling, divorce may be the only way out of the seemingly endless dark tunnel. If divorce is a relief from an unhappy situation, why do we fear it? We often hear about ugly divorce hearings, angry custody battles, and months of arguing, but what if divorce doesn't have to be this way?

On the brink of her own divorce, Sarene B. Arias vowed to do things differently — and Compassionate Divorce was born. When divorce is on the horizon, we need a way out that doesn't destroy the lives and mental well-being of both the couple and their children. Even in divorce, there can still be love, respect, understanding, and of course, compassion.
