Divorce is nobody’s dream, am I right? Remembe 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 Women's Divorce Academy. 

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.

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.

Join us via the link in our bio. You can do this!!

How is this hilarious pic from the archives! Back How is this hilarious pic from the archives! Back in the day we had a gift store and used to make feminist t-shirts. This was our first big photoshoot with our mate @briony.walker and we drove her mad with our constant giggling. We really struggled to keep it focussed the whole time! 

It was so long ago that we were both still married... you can see Gillian's wedding ring 😲 So much has changed since then with both of us going through awful divorces and coming out the other side determined to make change and end the horrendous divorce disadvantage that women suffer. 

But what hasn't changed is that we still love a laugh, we're BFFs and we will always be Feminist AF. So if you know a woman who is suffering through separation and divorce, send them our way for some support, info, laughter and ladylove!
