From Sad Ass to Bad Ass (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798993936512)

Perfect for fans of Glennon Doyle, Lori Gottlieb, and Strangers by Belle Burden, From Sad Ass to Bad Ass is a bold, unfiltered guide to surviving gray divorce (or any)--and building a life that finally feels like your own.

Sharp, fearless, and laugh-out-loud honest--From Sad Ass to Bad Ass is the no-BS guide every woman needs when her life blows up... and she decides not to shrink with it.

When therapist Holly Lockett's own marriage implodes, she learns the hard way: You can know all the tools... and still not be ready for the wreckage.

The shock.

The grief.

The rage.

The what the hell just happened to my life?

But here's the difference: she doesn't stay stuck there.

Instead, she rebuilds--out loud, in real time--and turns her experience into the kind of brutally honest, wildly empowering roadmap most women wish they had on day one.

Blending clinical insight with lived experience, Holly walks you through the emotional, financial, and deeply personal aftershocks of gray divorce with humor, clarity, and zero sugarcoating. This isn't about "healing quietly." It's about getting your life back.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

• Reclaim your identity after years of being someone's wife

• Navigate dating again (yes, even now... especially now)

• Take control of your money and your future

• Let go of guilt, people-pleasing, and playing small

• Start over without apologizing for it

And threaded through every chapter is the question that changes everything: What if the best part of my life starts now?

Perfect for readers coming off the emotional intensity of Strangers, this is the next step--the part where you stop analyzing the ending... and start rebuilding what comes next.
