Sometimes healing looks deep and profound.
And sometimes it looks like:

• Setting the thermostat exactly how 𝐘𝐎𝐔 like it
• Eating cereal for dinner without explaining yourself
• Watching your shows in peace
• Sleeping across the whole bed
• Decorating your space your way
• Realizing quiet can feel really, really good

Not every win has to be huge to be meaningful.
Some of the best moments after divorce are the small ones that remind you:

What should you do with the family home in divorce?

For many people, the house is not just a piece of property. It is tied to finances, stability, memories, and your future. Deciding whether to sell, keep, refinance, or buy out your spouse can feel overwhelming without the right guidance.

After attending one of Vesta’s webinars, P.S. shared this with Concierge Specialist Karen Cartwright during a follow-up call. 💙

“Vesta has become like family to me.”

That means so much to us. Divorce can feel isolating, and having a trusted place to turn for information, support, and connection can make a meaningful difference.

We’re grateful to be part of P.S.’s journey and honored that our calls and webinars have become something she looks forward to.

Every small step counts. Even when progress feels slow, each choice you make today is helping you move closer to the life you are building.

Keep going. Keep believing. Your dreams are not out of reach. They are being created one step at a time.

What if the equity in your home could give you more options during divorce and retirement than you realized?

In this episode of Dishing on Divorce, Mandy Pullen Barr and Deanna Young Coyle sit down with Laura Phillips, a licensed Reverse Mortgage Specialist in Colorado with more than 25 years of experience in real estate lending, to demystify reverse mortgages and explore how they can be used as part of a broader financial strategy.

Reverse mortgages have changed significantly over the years, yet many of the old misconceptions remain. Laura explains how today’s reverse mortgages work, who may qualify, the protections now built into the process, and why she views home equity as a financial tool that deserves a place in retirement planning conversations.

The conversation gets especially interesting when it comes to divorce later in life.

Laura shares how a reverse mortgage may help someone 62 or older:

• Access equity to buy out a spouse and remain in the marital home
• Purchase a new home after divorce without using their entire nest egg
• Create a line of credit for future retirement expenses
• Improve cash flow without a required monthly mortgage payment
• Fund home modifications or in-home care to support aging in place
• Preserve other retirement assets for future needs

Laura also explains negative amortization, non-recourse protection, FHA mortgage insurance, reverse mortgages for purchase, what happens when the homeowner eventually sells or passes away, and situations where a reverse mortgage may not make financial sense.

Most importantly, this episode is about asking a bigger question: What can your home do for you?

Whether you are navigating a gray divorce, planning for retirement, considering whether to keep your home, or simply curious about how home equity fits into your financial future, this conversation may introduce options you did not know existed.

Life can feel overwhelming, especially during times of change. Before you rush into the week ahead, give yourself permission to slow down.

𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘦. 𝘌𝘹𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘦. 𝘉𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵.

Take a few quiet moments today to:
• Pause and notice how you're feeling.
• Breathe deeply and let your shoulders relax.
• Reflect on what you're grateful for and what you need most this week.

You don't have to have everything figured out. Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is give yourself space to reset.
