Moving On - Finding a New Home for Your New Look Family
Description
Divorce doesn’t just bring about a separation from your partner, it can, and does, bring about a separation in other parts of your life, and one of them is your home. This week on the show Ang is talking about the stressful act of moving home. An act that is made even more stressful when twined with divorce. From where to go, to what to do with the items you bought with your partner and how to reduce the stress on yourself and your children, Ang has you covered. And, as she reveals, the upheaval might just be worth it in the long run.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- After Ang’s divorce she wanted to stay in the family home with her boys, to minimise any further disruption. However, it soon became clear that she needed to move. She talks about the process of moving house whilst navigating a divorce.
- Moving day is stressful. In fact, everyday leading up to moving day is stressful. Ang was on her own with her two boys when she had to move house, which only added to her stress. She recounts here her memories of the days leading up to moving and how she overcame some of the challenges.
- Once Ang and the boys were finally settled in the new house they discovered that the stress of moving was worth it when they began to realise all the unexpected benefits of having a new home, which Ang details.
- Some people don’t, or can’t, move house after a divorce. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still have a fresh start. Ang offers her tips on how to make your existing home feel like a new one.

NOTE – I need you to know that I don’t hate men! It’s important that you know there are many great men out there. Many fantastic fathers and single fathers trying hard to do a great job. I know little about the struggles of single fathers; however, I presume they are numerous common issues we share with these amazing men who strive to do the right thing by their children.
