Signing divorce papers really makes you realize how a whole life gets reduced to line items and signatures.

The hardest part of divorce isn’t the paperwork. It’s standing in the wreckage thinking, “Who the hell am I now?” When the marriage ends, so does the identity you built around it...and nobody prepares you for that disorientation.

I wrote From Sad Ass to Bad Ass for the woman in the messy middle of midlife divorce—the grief hangover, the identity crisis, the “what the hell is my life” moment.

Okay but let’s be honest… if your ex’s mistress-turned-wife reached out, would you respond? 👀

Part of me would be intrigued. Part of me would verbally body-slam her with my very sharp tongue 😂 And because I can do that, I also know I don’t need to prove a damn thing.

So tell me — have you had that conversation? Did it bring closure… or chaos? 💅🏼💜

To be fair...my dog was cuter than my husband 🤷‍♀️

And honestly? Best relationship decision I’ve made in years.

I can’t tell you how many women have told me they feel broken because they thought they were “over it” and then BAM—something triggers them and they’re back in the grief spiral.

A song. A smell. Your kid asking why you and dad don’t live together anymore. The anniversary of a day that doesn’t exist anymore.

And suddenly you’re wondering if you’ve made any progress at all.

Here’s what I need you to hear: Healing isn’t linear. It’s messy, it loops RIGHT back, and will surprise you on a random Tuesday.

From Sad Ass to Bad Ass is the roadmap for when you’re lost in the scribble. For when you need someone to say “Yeah, this is normal” and actually mean it.

Pre-order your copy of Sad Ass to Bad Ass is on Barnes & Noble & Amazon.

People always assume divorce has to come with hatred. The truth? I don’t hate him. I’m clear. I’m disgusted by choices that hurt my kids. I’m grounded in what I saw. And when someone shows you exactly who they are in the worst possible moment, hate isn’t even necessary — the clarity is enough.

You can survive betrayal.

You can survive divorce.

But nothing prepares you for sitting in a sterile exam room while someone tells you,
“We don’t know if this is cancer...yet.”

Adrienne talks about what those first months were really like — the agony of not knowing what’s next, the loss of predictability, and the brutal lesson of surrender when you’re not exactly built for patience.

In the full YouTube episode, we talk about:

👉🏼 The psychological toll of uncertainty
👉🏼 Why waiting can feel worse than treatment
👉🏼 What happens when the “strong one” has to receive help
👉🏼 The lessons you don’t volunteer for… but get anyway

🎥 “When Life Blows Up” is now available on my Youtube. Head to the link in my bio to watch.

Divorce will have you Googling things you never thought you’d need to know. 🙄💻

Midlife divorce really changes your definition of “self-control.”

Listen, I thought I was ready. My friends were like “get back out there!”

So I downloaded the app. Swiped for exactly 11 minutes. And then stared at my phone like I’d just witnessed a crime scene.

The bio that said “no drama” (red flag). The guy holding a fish (why). The one who opened with “hey beautiful” at 2am (absolutely not).
