Helen Thorn

What do you do when your relationship suddenly ends? How do you cope when the cosy 'coupley' future you had planned disappears? Join comedian Helen Thorn from The Scummy Mummies as she haphazardly takes the plunge into single life for the first time in twenty-two years.

Helen shares her own roller coaster journey from the initial shock of a surprise separation, the messy months hanging out in her PJs through to the highs of rediscovering online dating, tiny pants, rock-solid female friendships and the glorious joy of just being by herself. With the help of relationship experts and an army of women "who know", Get Divorced, Be Happy will show you that going it alone isn't the end, it is just the beginning, and you will come out the other side, stronger, happier and goddamn sassier than ever before.

How do you rebuild your life, when suddenly everything changes? How do you start to make sense of this new world you inhabit, this new path you didn't know you had to walk down. Who are you now? Who do you trust? How do you recover? Will the pain ever go away?

When you are sideswiped by a catastrophic head fuck out of your control, the prospect of putting the pieces back together without instruction can feel utterly impossible and hopeless.

Led by the author's own epic journey to rediscovering love and laughter again, How to Face Big Change will give you the building blocks for recovery. This is not an instruction manual, and there are no rules, but it will guide you through this new phase of your life and empower you to become a stronger, more badass you!
