Overview
A therapist’s bold, funny guide to surviving Gray Divorce and rebuilding your life on your own terms.
When therapist Holly Lockett finds her own marriage imploding, she discovers that even experts aren’t immune to the chaos, shock, and wild emotional whiplash of Gray Divorce. What she is uniquely equipped to do? Turn the wreckage into wisdom—with humor, straight talk, and zero euphemisms.
Drawing from both her professional training and her personal unraveling, Holly walks women through the emotional, legal, physical, and romantic aftershocks of divorce with the kind of candor only a therapist-turned-survivor can offer.
This isn’t another somber “healing journey.”
It’s a bold, beautifully irreverent field guide for reclaiming your joy, your agency, and your bad-assery.

Redefine who you are beyond the marriage you’ve outgrown.
Date Again
Navigate modern romance—even if your flirting skills are from another century.
Master Your Finances

Stop Apologizing
Let go of guilt, obligation, and the version of yourself that played small.
And threaded through every chapter:
“What if the best part of my life starts now?”
A breakout Gray Divorce title that makes you feel seen, makes you laugh, and makes you believe your second act might just be your best one yet.
