Publisher's Summary

If you're looking at this book for you, I'm sorry for what you're experiencing.

You now know heartbreak is an exquisitely painful concoction of:

  • Constant nausea
  • Obsessive thinking
  • Crushing depression
  • Stabbing pain in your heart
  • The now lovely potential of having your entire day decimated in an instant
  • Betrayal, groundlessness, and fear  

Quite literally, heartbreak is a personally prescribed hell. Trust me, like you, I know it well, and wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. 

No book can take this pain away for you, and anyone who says they can is flat out lying. Yet, while the pain may feel like an emotional death sentence, it can be quite the opposite.  

I believe heartbreak, as god-awful and gut-wrenching as it is for you, can actually be the greatest opportunity ever you've ever been handed - a gift wrapped in razor wire and sh-t, but a gift none the less. Why? 

That's what it was for me, and what I'm going to turn it into for you. The pain you feel right now is the catalyst for growth and development like you've never experienced, fueled by the exact awfulness you now believe is your new normal.  

After using the two-and-half year odyssey of my own divorce to very publicly change every aspect of my life, something interesting began to happen - people just like you started reaching out to me and asking how you could do the same. People like you who wanted to not only survive their situations but also use them to do all manner of amazing things like: 

  • Lose weight
  • Quit smoking
  • Get sober
  • Start businesses
  • Or rebuild their entire lives  

When a close friend had her husband leave, I made the commitment to speak with her for 90 straight days, telling her exactly what I wished someone had told me the moment my own wife walked out.

Every morning, I'd send her an email with a story from my own "hellacious" experience, giving her something inspirational to focus on and an action step to get her from heartbroken back to thriving - as fast as possible. 

Those letters were then forwarded to thousands of people in your exact situation, navigating the darkest chapter of their lives. 

My goal was simple - to get her just a little bit stronger each and every day, and it worked. And worked. And worked. 

This book is those exact letters, compiled for you, with zero punches pulled. The raw truth of my experience. The truth of what you're now facing with no bullshit, plus the best ways to survive, revive, and then thrive. 

Here's to you. Getting past today and on to tomorrow. 

You will rise, one morning at a time, making yourself one day stronger.

Perfect timing

I originally ordered this book when I was single and had no real pain. Just curiosity, it wasn’t what I needed, until I was going through a breakup. It definitely helped and was nice hearing Traver narrating it, it felt like he was in your corner and you could always depend on him, that’s probably the thing that helped the most.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

I can say without a doubt this book saved my life. I am currently going through a separation and the wisdom, humor, knowledge and experience shared in this book have helped me see the possibility and path to a better future.

Look, it's not rocket science...

... but when you have had your 'heart put in a nutribullet' as Traver would say, you don't want that.

The author is heartfelt and I felt genuinely supported as I listened.

Depending on how many times you've been around the block with a serious relationship, some of this stuff you might know - but it all helps when you are feeling terrible and you need someone to tell it to you again. It helps when someone is honest about just how awful they felt when their world imploded.

Traver also has a compelling argument to offer in favour of what we can do with how we are feeling as a result of our break up - no spoilers, but I felt it was worthy.

I always think these books sort of sound similar - but perhaps that is just because I've had to read a few to pick myself up off the floor and I'm bit jaded now.

I appreciated the honesty of the author - I think you will too.

Will I rise

Well this book and program is exactly what I needed.
Wife left me without prior indication. 2 kids and a difficult future. But Traver teaches you to grab the opportunity the possibilities and grab the with the pain of the divorce. Thanks Traver
