Greta had always supported her husband Rett—moving cities, giving up her business, even helping with his work.
But when he told her to “serve dinner and stay out of sight” during a big meeting at their home,
something snapped. The comment wasn’t just dismissive—it made her feel invisible in her own life.
What Rett didn’t know was that Greta had quietly revived her freelance design business under her maiden name.
One recent client was Sheila—his boss’s wife—who didn’t realize Greta’s identity until the dinner.
As the night unfolded, Sheila praised Greta’s work, unknowingly shifting attention away from Rett and onto her.
Rett’s ego bruised, he lashed out afterward. But Greta had reached her limit. She revealed the truth—about her work,
her success, and her decision. Then she handed him divorce papers and walked away from the life that had diminished her.
In the weeks that followed, Greta transformed the study into her own studio and fully embraced her independence. With a growing client list
and a renewed sense of self, she no longer needed Rett’s approval. She had already found her worth—and it had nothing to do with being someone’s shadow.
