The SAFE Separation Roadmap
A practical guide that walks you through separation one clear step at a time.
Separation is complicated enough.
You shouldn't have to become an expert at family law, parenting,
mediation, child psychologist, personal safety manager, communication strategist,
evidence and document coordinator or Australian resource specialist.
The SAFE Separation Roadmap™ is the practical Australian guide for women navigating separation,
particularly when the relationship has involved control, intimidation, conflict or family violence.
Instead of giving you another giant list of things you “should” know, SAFE helps you work out what
matters to you, what you need to understand, what you may need to prepare — and what to do next.
Practical guidance • Australian-focused • 400+ pages of resources, tools & answers.
Hi, I'm Kylie...
I'm the founder of SAFE Single Mum, and I created The SAFE Separation Roadmap™ because I know what it feels like to be completely overwhelmed after leaving an abusive relationship. Not just emotionally. Practically.
Suddenly, every day seemed to bring another decision. There were forms to complete, finances to untangle, school updates, parenting arrangements, legal processes, endless emails, and a thousand questions that no one seemed able to answer in one place.
What I needed wasn't another inspirational quote.
I needed someone to hand me a roadmap.
When I couldn't find one, I started creating my own systems, communication strategies and practical steps that made the chaos feel manageable.
Those systems became the foundation of SAFE Single Mum.
Everything I create is designed to answer one question:
"What do I need to do next?"
Because when you've lived through coercive control or emotional abuse, even small decisions can feel impossible.
You don't need to have everything figured out.
You just need your next step.
If The SAFE Separation Roadmap™ can help make this season of your life feel even a little lighter, then it has done exactly what I created it to do.
Welcome.
I'm so glad you're here.
— Kylie
