Synopsis

Anne Smith had known for years that her marriage existed only on paper, but she was resigned to sticking it out. How could she walk away now, after thirty years? It was too risky financially to go through a second divorce at a time when she was looking forward to retirement.

As she faced her milestone 60th birthday, Anne yearned for the love, companionship, and joy that were missing. She was angry that she had spent a significant portion of her life in unhealthy relationships and realized that she had abandoned herself in an attempt to fix someone else who hadn’t asked to be fixed. That realization drove her onto the path of healing.

Gray Divorce: My Life Rewritten is a multi-layered personal exploration into childhood belief systems and behaviors that profoundly impacted Anne’s life and influenced who she chose as partners. With passages throughout the book taken directly from her journal, readers will follow the path Anne took as she made the decision to divorce, free herself from destructive patterns, and reclaim her life and her happiness.

Anne is a corporate trainer and a seasoned Human Resources professional with nearly three decades of experience. She understands how complex people dynamics can be and uses her expertise with psychometric tools to help others improve their working relationships.
