Personalised support for people navigating separation and divorce
Now recruiting pilot users.
Everything you need. Exactly when you need it.
LifePlace has been designed to support every aspect of separation and divorce - not just the legal process, but the emotional, practical and personal journey that comes with it.
Rather than leaving you to search endlessly for answers, LifePlace brings together everything you need in one place, providing personalised guidance based on your circumstances and where you are in your journey.
Your toolkit includes:
- A comprehensive Knowledge Library of trusted information, practical guidance and expert resources.
- Step-by-step pathways covering the legal, financial and parenting aspects of separation, helping you understand complex processes into manageable stages.
- A private journal where you can capture thoughts, reflections and important moments along the way.
- An emotions tracker to help you recognise patterns, understand how you're feeling and build greater emotional awareness over time.
- Onya, your AI companion, available throughout the platform to answer questions, explain unfamiliar terminology, help you find relevant resources and guide you towards the support that's right for you.
Whether you're wondering how to tell your children, preparing for mediation, trying to understand financial arrangements, meeting a solicitor for the first time or simply having a difficult day, LifePlace is designed to provide calm, trusted support whenever you need it.
Our goal is simple: to help you feel more informed, more organised and more confident, one step at a time.

Emotional support, practical guidance and plain-English tools
LifePlace supports people who are married, cohabiting, or in a civil partnership as well as those who are exploring their options and have not yet made a decision.
Your AI-powered separation and divorce companion
At the heart of LifePlace, I'm Onya, your personal digital companion, created specifically to support people navigating separation and divorce.
I'm here to help you understand what's happening, find the information you need, prepare for important conversations and discover the right support when you need it most. I combine thoughtful technology with calm, practical guidance to help make what can feel confusing and overwhelming a little clearer and more manageable.
Unlike a generic chatbot, I've been designed around the real experiences of people going through separation and divorce. I understand the journey you're on and can help you find the guidance, tools and support that are most relevant to your situation. Whether you're looking for practical information, a moment to reflect, or simply need help finding your next step, I'm here to support you and to help you feel more informed, organised and confident as you move forward, at your own pace.

Join our pilot programme and help shape the future of LifePlace
This autumn, we will begin inviting a limited number of people to trial LifePlace free of charge ahead of our launch.
We are looking for people navigating relationship change, whether married, cohabiting, in a civil partnership, or who are considering their options and are willing to explore the platform and provide honest feedback on:
- How intuitive and easy LifePlace feels to use
- Whether the guidance is clear, relevant and genuinely helpful
- Whether using LifePlace leaves you feeling more informed, supported and in control
In return, pilot users will receive complimentary access to the full LifePlace toolkit including Onya, practical resources and emotional support tools. Human coaching is available separately as a paid add-on.
Join the waitlist to register your interest for the pilot.
Founded on lived experience and genuine expertise
LifePlace was founded by Karen and Rachel, two women brought together by a shared belief that people navigating difficult life events deserve better support.
Karen is a former barrister and qualified divorce coach who brings both professional expertise and lived experience to LifePlace. Having navigated a toxic divorce of her own, Karen saw clearly how disjointed, confusing and lonely the system could be, even for someone who understood it professionally. That experience became the idea behind LifePlace, a single, trusted place where people could feel informed, supported and empowered during one of life's hardest moments. Karen remains deeply involved in shaping the platform's content, tone, direction and support, driven by a simple belief that no one should have to face this alone. Today, she combines legal insight, coaching expertise and genuine compassion to help shape a platform that meets people not just with answers, but with understanding.
Rachel is a serial entrepreneur and business leader with a track record of building and growing organisations that challenge convention and deliver meaningful change. Known for combining commercial acumen with a deeply people-centred approach, she has spent more than 25 years building and helping businesses navigate growth, transformation and innovation. As Co-Founder of LifePlace, Rachel has played a central role in shaping the platform's evolution from an initial coaching concept into a scalable digital service. She leads the development of the business, technology and user experience, ensuring LifePlace combines expert guidance, an expert panel and innovative technology to help people navigate some of life's most difficult transitions with greater confidence and control.

Expert support, when you need it most

Our coaches are specifically experienced in supporting people through relationship breakdown and major life transition. They provide calm, grounded guidance to help users think clearly, prepare for important conversations, navigate difficult decisions and feel more confident about the road ahead.
