Steve Kane does a masterful job of showing that divorce does not have to be viewed as full-on failure. He reminds us of things that many of us know, but can easily forget due to outside pressures: 1. We should find a path to joy in our lives -- and this path may require us to divorce our spouse, 2. Ending a marriage does not mean the end of family -- there are many ways to be a family, 3. Ending a marriage does not have to be a "fight to the death" between the two parties, 4. if you manage your divorce with kindness and love, your kids will come out just fine.
This is a VERY DIFFERENT kind of "marriage" book -- and a very welcome new perspective.

I first heard Steve talk on one of the divorce podcast and immediately got his book. How refreshing, optimistic and promising my divorce became after reading it. Most of the books on the subject are depressing and dreary but Steve convinced me that it doesn't have to be. No nonsense modern approach to divorce. Love it. Thank you Mr Kane an how did you know I was looking for movies and shows to watch to get through this time.

I highly recommend this book to anyone even remotely considering getting a divorce. It is a very practical and thoughtful guide to "consciously uncoupling" in as elegant and pain-free a manner as possible. From the title alone you know the author is blunt, funny, and bright. The book does not disappoint and I'd like to suggest makes a great gift (sent anonymously from Amazon!) for anyone you know considering divorce.

A refreshingly honest read that covers all the bases - practical and emotional - when moving on is the best path forward. The authors insights are thought provoking as he explores everything that might hold us back from releasing unhappy relationships and taking an optimistic leap into a new chapter of life.

This helped. Thank you Steven Kane. If you're going through something, or might be going through something -- I literally cannot recommend a better resource that is honest, raw, and smart. Buy the book.

An authentic, extremely well-written guide to a "scary" life event that ranks right up there with the birth of kids, the loss of a job and the death of loved ones. Here we gain a fresh, witty, hard-won perspective on how divorce can be healthy -- how it can ultimately be a good/positive thing -- for ALL involved. How many friends have you had who remain trapped in debilitating unhappiness for all the wrong reasons? "What will people think?" "What will happen to the family?" That's the F-it part of this book ... that's the noise this book helps you cancel. If you or anyone you know is unhappy enough to consider divorce, Kane helps you cut through the clutter and find your way -- and your spouse's way, and your kids' way -- to a better, healthier place.

I happened to discover this book browsing Amazon and the title and cover art clearly garnered my attention ;-). It's interesting as a divorcee, I decided to make the purchase. The reason is simple. I've often struggled with my, our divorce. It's been the old "should have, would have, could have" mindset that has kept me from truly letting go for more years than I care to admit. Steve Kane's honest and thoughtful approach and insights to dealing head on with one of the most difficult decisions we make in our lifetime has given me a surprisingly fresh perspective. I'm beginning to lighten up and accept the fact that was the right path. Thank you Steve!!!!!

This terrific book covers every aspect of divorce-- legal, financial, emotional, physical, children, and new relationships. What makes it unique is that Kane does this in a way that is both practical and witty; his humor helps to lessen the pain. He has a feisty attitude without being angry or vindictive. Kane also offers compassionate insights on how to move on successfully with the children and with new relationships. An excellent resource!
