WHY DID WE CREATE A CLUB NOBODY WANTS TO JOIN?! D WHY DID WE CREATE A CLUB NOBODY WANTS TO JOIN?! Divorce is nobody’s dream, am I right? Remember being in those first flushes of love, thinking you’ve met the person you are going to spend the rest of your life with? None of us thought then we’d end up here, alone, overwhelmed, and terrified of how we’re going to get our shit together and create anything positive in the future. Then, when things don’t go down that way – whether you chose it (like Carolyn did) or it was thrust upon you (like it was for Gillian), you don’t know who to talk to or where to turn for advice. And that’s why we’ve created Champagne Divorce Club. We felt compelled to do it, because we know the way now, and we know lots of women are going through what we’ve been through. We know we can help you get through it faster, easier, and with a greater feeling of love and support behind you when you need it most. If you could do with some help taking the struggle out of divorce, or you just want to feel less alone, join us for a free webinar chock-full of tips and lessons that have been hard learned.

FOR FUCKS SAKE STOP TELLING US HOW TO LOVE OURSELV FOR FUCKS SAKE STOP TELLING US HOW TO LOVE OURSELVES! Being a woman is the pits. Or it’s amazing. Or it’s however you’re feeling about it on any given day. Like anything, it’s full of light and shade and nuance. Lucky us! One thing that gives us the everloving shits about being a woman is the idea we are supposed to age ‘gracefully’. We are expected to stay looking reasonably fresh, while also never admitting to trying very hard. Maybe we stop dying our hair and let it go grey, so our friends can congratulate us for being ‘brave’ (not that it’s not – society has decided the simple act of doing nothing to your hair is credited with the same description as saving your family from a pack of starving bears FFS). Maybe we post a make-up free selfie on Instagram, while also ensuring the light is just right, and we add a sneaky filter or two. Because heaven forbid we should admit out loud that living our lives for some decades, having kids, going through our own traumas and life events has wrought havoc on our faces and our bodies. That real life, lived well or otherwise, leaves marks and scars and road maps of where we’ve been all over us. And then on the flipside of that we’ve got influencers and celebrities telling us we don’t NEED to do anything. That what we need is to love ourselves as we are, flaws and all. (Usually these influencers are also using a thousand filters, which would be fine if they weren’t in the business of making us feel like we’re broken because clearly we just don’t love ourselves as much as they do, and that’s why our lives are hard most days and our kitchens aren’t as organised as theirs.) Whichever side of the camp you’re on, though, who gives a fuck what anyone else is doing? Want to get your lips filled? Do it. Want to get a boob job? Great. Want to do nothing and allow nature to take you where it may? Groovy. Whichever way you choose to love yourself is the best way for you. Whether you want to ‘fix’ everything you don’t like, or learn to embrace it all as it is, there is no wrong answer. The full version of this first appeared on our blog.

Are you trying to keep things nice with your ex, a Are you trying to keep things nice with your ex, and settle without talking to a lawyer? Look, we get it - but it's one of the biggest mistakes we see women making. And it's more common than you might think. We're brought up to be 'nice' and not rock the boat, and there can be so much emotional strain on this time in your life. Of course you want to keep things as nice as possible - for the kids, and for your own mental health. So you’re going through how you’ll divide this lifetime of stuff that you’ve bought together - and your ex might say they just want what’s fair for both of you, right? And they might say 50-50 is totally fair and you’re like OH MY GOD ME TOO, LET’S MAKE THIS QUICK AND EASY. But this is a massive mistake. One you could regret for many years to come. Let us tell you all about why, and what you should do instead, in our FREE training. Register via link in bio.
