This Money Diarist has been through it all. She had just resigned from her job as a personal injury lawyer in order to spend more time with her partner and pivot her life. That weekend, he died in an accident. On top of her world imploding, her financial stress went through the roof. It took 8 months for her income protection to set in and it didn’t include cover for psychological injury. She wants to share her painful story in the hope it might help others.
