History
The publication was launched as a quarterly magazine in March
1996 by publisher Dan Couvrette and editorial director Diana Shepherd. Shepherd previously was the associate editor for a Canadian wedding magazine called
Wedding Bells. The New York and Illinois editions began later that year, and the SoCal edition followed the year after. The Texas and Florida editions were launched in
2003.
The magazine was inspired in part by Couvrette's own divorce. "I needed help. I was embarrassed, confused, and incredibly upset by my divorce," Couvrette has said. "Friends offered support but few answers. I wondered, 'What went wrong?' 'What will happen to my children?' 'Will I ever feel better again?' I was motivated to try and 'figure things out', and I figured I wasn't alone."
At the same time, Shepherd was dating a man who had recently divorced. Both Shepherd and Couvrette found that there were no magazines and relatively few books on the market tackling divorce. "We thought if we needed information," Shepherd said, "other people would too. We started the magazine for people in the same boat as us."
Couvrette has stressed that the purpose of the magazine and website are to help people get through the divorce experience with the least emotional and financial damage. "I'm definitely not encouraging people to get divorced. I encourage people to get help. Talk to your rabbi, your priest, your parents or your therapist; read books, practice meditation, whatever it takes."
Today, the magazine prints all six regional editions semiannually and, as of
2006, had a circulation of approximately 125,000. The current editorial director, Jane Nahirny, claims that the website has received more than 10 million visits since 1996. Around 80% of magazine copies are available for free at the offices of divorce professionals, such as lawyers, accountants, therapists and Certified Divorce Financial Planners.
