Born in Nottingham, Sarah earned her Law degree from the University of Wales and went on to teach International Criminal Law at several universities. Her academic and professional journey was interrupted when her son Joshua was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in 1996 and sadly passed away in December 1998 aged seven.
Sarah later worked in the charity and care sectors before becoming a Change Management specialist at the Ministry of Defence and later in a major global consultancy. In 2006, she met her future husband, marrying him in January 2010. Fourteen years later, Sarah’s world imploded when he confessed to eight-years of affairs—with men—including in their own home. Even during her battle with breast cancer, he continued the betrayal.
Following a nervous breakdown and three suicide attempts, Sarah began the long, hard road back to herself. Therapy and coaching helped her uncover the emotional abuse and gaslighting she had endured. She emerged stronger, free, and seven stone lighter—both emotionally and physically.
Now based in Wales, Sarah runs two successful companies:
Women in Change – a global network of female change-makers - www.womeninchange.co.uk
NowExhale – a one-stop platform supporting people navigating divorce and separation - www.nowexhale.co.uk
When she’s not supporting others through change, Sarah can be found doing yoga, learning French, playing padel, or designing her new home in France.
This is her first book—a bold, brutally honest, and unexpectedly uplifting account of betrayal, survival, and the surprising joy of starting over.
Well, I didn’t go to Harvard Medical School.
I didn’t take a course in “How to Survive Soul-Destroying Betrayal 101.”
And I don’t have a certificate in “Emotional Resilience with Distinction.”
But here's what I do have:
I’ve been a single parent.
I’ve held my child while he was dying of terminal cancer at just seven years old.
I’ve had breast cancer.
I’ve buried my mother.
And just when I thought I’d made it through the worst life could possibly throw at me — plot twist — my husband of nearly two decades dropped a betrayal so explosive it made my trauma résumé go platinum.
I found out he’d been cheating on me for eight years with men. He had lied, gaslit, and left me shattered.
The pain broke me — I don’t say that metaphorically. I had three suicide attempts and a nervous breakdown so loud it had its own postcode. I didn’t just rattle with the pills — I practically qualified as a walking maraca.
But guess what?
I survived.
I swore.
I wrote.
And slowly — so slowly I wanted to punch a clock — I reinvented myself.
So no, I’m not a psychologist.
But I’ve lived things most therapists read about in textbooks. I know what betrayal tastes like. I know what trauma feels like in your bones. And I know that recovery doesn’t come with a welcome party — it sneaks in, late and uninvited, like a miracle in a hoodie.
That’s why I’m qualified to write this book.
Because if you're in a dark place, I’ve been there.
I built a home in the darkness, burned it down, and clawed my way into the light — wearing nothing but sarcasm, trauma, and very tired mascara.
And if I can help one person laugh, feel seen, or throw a cheating ex into the bin of emotional history where they belong?
Then every awful chapter was worth it.
More than a few men in my marriage is not your typical breakup memoir.
It’s raw, real, and at times, ridiculously relatable and packed with humour. When Sarah’s husband of 14 years confessed to cheating on her—with men, in their own home, including while she had cancer—you’d think it couldn’t get any worse. Spoiler: it did. Nervous breakdowns, suicide attempts, and a crash course in narcissism later, Sarah did the unimaginable: she survived, got strong, and got hilarious.
This book is for anyone who’s ever been betrayed, blindsided, or just deeply unimpressed by someone they once loved. Equal parts heartbreak and healing, with a side of dark humour, this book proves that sometimes the worst thing that happens to you… is the best thing that ever happened.
