Divorce isn’t just emotional — it’s financial and strategic. Outsmart the system. Secure your future.

Hi, I’m Desirae 

and I’m Your Divorce Bestie

I’m Desirae Chalmers — but most people just call me Des. I’m your Divorce Bestie: the person who’s been right where you are, felt the overwhelm, the confusion, the heartbreak, and the fear of what comes next.  

Before this work, I was a business owner and tax consultant with degrees in Business, Accounting, and Tax Law — so I speak both strategy and real-life financial reality. But my most important education came from lived experience.

I’ve sat in the sadness, cried over an uncertain future, felt outraged and misunderstood, and most of all — felt lost. Divorce can turn your life upside down, and it can feel impossible to know what to do next. That’s why I created My Divorce Bestie: to help you bring order to the chaos, turn overwhelm into a path you can follow, and walk with you every step of the way — even when there are detours.  

I am not an attorney, CPA, therapist, or financial advisor — and I don’t replace those licensed professionals. What I am is your Concierge Divorce Consultant: the steady, non‑judgmental partner who helps you plan your next move, communicate clearly, and protect your peace while others do their job.  

We’ll laugh together. We’ll cry together. And we’ll carefully craft the next chapter you desire and deserve.

Why I Do This

During my divorce, I had friends — I had besties — and they helped me survive one of the toughest times of my life. Even with their support, I often felt incredibly alone. I don’t believe anyone should go through divorce alone — especially not when the people around you just don’t know what you’re living.  

Caring for others and helping them find safety, stability, love, and joy again fills my cup. I offer a safe space, a virtual shoulder to cry on, and compassionate, strategic guidance to help you become the best version of yourself.  

I’m also a proud mom of two college‑aged girls who have flown the nest, and a caretaker of five furry, four‑legged companions who never will.
