About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

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 22 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.

Helen Thorn’s account of life after discovering her husband’s adultery is an inspiration. Her personal reflection and advice combined with the wisdom of professionals will bring comfort and may lead to the awakening of others.
No one needs to put up with the poison of some domestic partners. Helen has, like many women before her, discovered that life is better without the daily life grind of living with an entitled pompous git. Rock on Helen ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Helen Thorn’s raw tale is an inspiration

I right this with much gratitude 🩷
After being side swiped by my husband within 24 hrs knew I need to change my thinking and there you were Helen with this fabulous Audio Book. When I feel blue it’s you I turn to Helen. Within minutes of listening I went from feel the lowest of lows to laughing and laughing . So every time I feel 50 shades of Blue sneak up on me it’s your Audio book that I turn too.
If I would add one thing it would be to list the other authors you mention right at the end.
Thank you for being there at the push of a button.
