Brought to you by the Every Dollar app. Start budgeting for free today. I'm going through a complete reset in my early 30s. I have three children and I'm trying to figure out how to restart financially after having owned a multimillion dollar company and going through a divorce. So I think that's the hardest thing that I'm working through right now. Wow. Yeah, that's enough hard things. I think we're good on that. So where does this stand? Is the divorce finalized?

No, it started back in June. I had to leave because abuse and control. So I left for a week and it kind of started to snowball worse. And this is a company that we built together. And then he just kind of started taking over everything and then started saying that I embezzled from him, and that's why he has to do it. So are there lawyers involved now? What's going on? There are lawyers involved. He has two, and I have one. We don't even hit mediation until February,

and right now I just got assigned very, very little pay from him until we can kind of,

everything can go out. But like I said, I went from a lot of money down to just nothing.

Like I've had to rebuild my own, I don't even have anything. I had to just work my way

into what I have. And I recently just got my first rental. I've always bought homes. So it's just like,

I'm in the middle of a serious, wow, what do I do? But I'm trying my best because I also homeschool my

children. So the court didn't issue you to have nothing. Has he just

essentially locked you out of all of the money? Is that what's taking place? That's correct. Okay.

And the attorneys have done nothing to reverse any of this? Meet every dollar budgeters Christy and

Steve. They used to fight about money. I'm the spender. I'm definitely the saver. Now that they budget with every dollar, they're on the same page. Money is definitely one thing we do not ever fight about. Having the budget gave me the permission to spend. Knowing that the money is in each category, it just allowed us to work together better. Now that's what we call a win-win. Now we just have to pick paint colors.

We can't help you with that.

There hasn't, we haven't gotten to mediation, and we have 59 counts of contempt of court on his side.

But it's just been a slow process because the goal is really custody with the children at this point. And right now I'm primary and he gets a couple

days a week. But I think right now I'm being awarded $2,500 a month for just custody issues until

we can even figure that out, which is very little to live on.

Sure. What were you used to living on? 20,000 a month, okay. Yes, yes, ma'am. Okay. And you're still

both a part of this company that's still running? My name is 50% on it. It's an LLC. It's a manufacturing

company. Okay. Um, yes. So, and I'm not working it now. I got

locked out. I can't even get unemployment because he won't get me an unemployment letter. What do you mean you got
