In late-2020, Emily Jade O’Keeffe’s life imploded in a way she never saw coming.

From the outside, everything looked picture perfect – a successful breakfast radio career, two happy kids, a glamorous social calendar. But in January this year, she revealed her sixteen-year relationship dissolved before her eyes and her husband had left her.

This is a story of separation in your forties. It is one woman’s account of what the first year following a split looks and feels like. The past twelve months have seen EJ navigate shock, deep heartache, and the challenges of co-parenting. At 45, she’s staring down the barrel of building a new life from the one she’d imagined living in her middle years and beyond.

Every woman has a story to tell in her fifth decade. This is EJ’s.
