Valeksa Bacon

In the process of preparing for her own divorce, Valeska was able to discover at least one affair, tens of thousands of dollars, and that she had been living in a gaslit world. She also discovered that she had all the tools she needed to set herself up for the fight her husband was bringing and emerged victorious from an 11-hour mediation with a fair and equitable divorce in hand. 


Valeska created a unique approach to divorce assistance using tools she learned in school, her career, various leadership positions, and years of work on mindset. Her project management approach saves you time, money, and overwhelm, whether they have gone through domestic or financial abuse, a spouse with a different idea of what “monogamy” means, or they have grown out of their marriage, Valeska is on a mission to help women position themselves for a better version of their life after divorce.
