About Lily

Divorced at 38.
Thriving at 40.

Hi, I’m Lily.

I got divorced at 38. And yes — I threw myself a party.

Not because I was celebrating the end of something, but because I needed to mark the beginning of what came next. I wanted balloons. I wanted champagne. I wanted my best friends around a table telling me the next chapter was going to be something worth celebrating.

What I didn’t have was a guide. Somewhere to find the perfect divorce party theme, or an honest take on which dating apps actually work after a long marriage, or someone telling me that starting over at 38 was not the tragedy I thought it was — it was an opportunity.

So I built it.

My Happy Divorce is for anyone who’s ready to close one chapter and walk boldly into the next. Whether you’re planning the party of your life, figuring out how to heal, cautiously downloading Bumble for the first time, or just trying to figure out what solo travel even looks like — you’re in the right place.

I’m not a therapist. I’m not a lawyer. I’m just someone who’s been through it, found the joy in it, and wants to help you find yours.

Welcome. You’re going to be fine. Actually — you’re going to be better than fine.
