Delaine Moore
Bio:
Now almost two years into her divorce, memoirist and single mom Delaine Moore has literally burst back to life and into the public eye with an empowering message for divorced women: You might be divorced, but you aren’t DEAD. Her articles on I Am Divorced Not Dead.com and A Divorced Woman.com are inspiring thousands of divorced women to grab the next chapter of their lives by the horns and pursue passion on their own terms.
An Honor’s graduate in journalism, Delaine's professional life has traversed newspaper and magazine writing as well as TV production. Further trained as a Neuro-Linguistic Programming therapist and hypnotherapist, she has counselled, lectured, and written on a wide variety of women’s issues including body image, self-esteem, and personal growth.
Eight years ago, however, she willingly abandoned her just-taking-off career to become a wife and stay-at-home mom. Smitten with her new ‘family dream,’ she appeared to have it all: three young kids, a nice home, a loving husband. But at age 37, infidelity and divorce threw her face-down in Rock Bottom; she wanted to roll over and die.
Shockingly, however, one part of her came back to life: her sexuality. And over the next year, her body thrust her life forward, igniting body and soul awakenings, and burning away the undergrowth of who she once was.
Her body-driven awakenings drove her to write her upcoming memoir, I Am Divorced Not Dead. It is the story of how she, an every day woman, faced off with her bare boned self in the wake of infidelity and divorce. Only by giving herself permission to explore herself - mind/body/soul, through sexuality, sensuality and ‘promiscuity,’ was she able to shed her old married skin and begin the radical reconstruction a stronger, richer Delaine.
Since then, Delaine has appeared as a guest on Cosmo Radio’s talk show “Get in Bed” (Sirius Satellite). She also won the Reader’s Choice essay competition at The Novelette.com on the topic of men.
Today Delaine continues to write about the Yin and Yang of her pain and awakenings, inspiring readers to find passion, courage, and laughter as they navigate the insanity of divorce. She says, “Even though this life crisis looks and feels like hell, divorcing women need to know that it is NOT their final destination; it is but a detour of hard-knocks designed to bring them home — to themselves.”
