The Other Side of Divorce Author Interviews Part 2

This is the second in the series of interviews with authors of “The Other Side of Divorce: Breakups That Lead to Breakthroughs”. Today, I have the opportunity to speak with Laura Richards, Gina Nalbone Phillips, Melissa K. Range, and Myriam-Rose Kohn. We explore why they contributed to the book, the lessons they learned through their divorce, and the words of wisdom they would like to share with other women at any stage of the divorce process.

Tune in to hear from the authors, consider a different way to experience divorce, and why sharing how divorce can positively impact your life is so important.

Melissa K. Range

Melissa is a single mom of three certified lifeguards who have saved over 20 lives combined, plus Apollo the friendliest dog in town. Melissa loves to travel (especially if it means playing with fire), meet new people, and live interdependently by her own lights. Tell her she can't do something, and she will probably reply, "Watch me!"

She has been on a spiritual path for 15 years, being inspired to evolve through multiple certifications such as Firewalk instructor, Crystalline Priestess, Money Breakthrough Business coach, Sacred Money Archetypes coach, and Doula. She's also an Usui, Karuna, Angelic, and Crystal Reiki Master Teacher, Akashic record reader, and former Zumba and ballroom dance instructor.

Melissa mentors and empowers women to rebuild their intuition, reclaim their power, and restore grace to their lives by reminding them of who they are, and helping them to push their edge through focused action to create what they want in life. She is a staunch believer in the fierce feminine and has coined the term WIT—whatever it takes, for women who are willing to own their shadow and lead with their heart.

Myriam-Rose Kohn

Myriam-Rose Kohn is a multilingual career expert who had to go through two career transitions. I don't just do textbook theories in my program. I bring real life experiences. I know where the pitfalls and the fear lie. That's the reason I hold my clients' hands until they reach their goal. They do not have to do it alone. In me they have a confidante who has their best interest at heart. My vision: ensure my clients get paid for work they enjoy doing which leads to a harmonious and joyous life. The process consists of career exploration; resume, LinkedIn profile writings; how to ace interviews and salary negotiations, how to conduct a job search; personal and digital branding. I was an adjunct professor at the university for more than twenty years. I am an accredited translator (for international clients) who also works for the courts and the U.S. Department of Justice.
