Gabriella Pomare, an Australian author, international speaker, and family lawyer, has announced the release of her latest book, "Before It Breaks," a guide to modern relationships. The book, published by Big Sky Publishing and distributed by Simon & Schuster, is set to be released on March 2, 2027, with pre-orders opening on November 1, 2026.
Pomare, who has worked extensively with couples at the point of relationship breakdown, aims to shift the focus of relationship advice from the crisis point to the earlier stages where relationships can falter.
"Before It Breaks" explores a range of contemporary relationship issues, including emotional affairs, motherhood, ambition, digital boundaries, friendships with former partners, and the tension between maintaining a family and a relationship. The book introduces frameworks such as "Season or Pattern," "Red Flag or Ick," and the "Third Presence Check," encouraging readers to examine their circumstances rather than immediately labeling their relationship a success or failure.
Pomare's work is grounded in her extensive experience as a family lawyer and her role as the host of the "Before It Breaks" podcast. She brings a unique perspective to the conversation, offering practical advice that goes beyond the surface-level issues often addressed in relationship advice.
The announcement of "Before It Breaks" comes as technology continues to create new questions about intimacy and trust. In June 2026, Match Group surveyed approximately 1,000 US singles aged 18 to 39 and found that 47 percent viewed artificial intelligence in romantic contexts negatively. This finding offers one contemporary backdrop to the book's exploration of outside influences on relationships.
Pomare sees the approaching holiday season as an opportunity for couples to have timely conversations about family expectations, money, boundaries, and emotional workload. Her commentary asks whether couples are making room to connect or simply managing increasingly complicated schedules together.
Pomare is available for in-person interviews in New York and Los Angeles during the week commencing November 16, 2026, with bookings coordinated by arrangement. She is also available for interviews with Australian and New Zealand media throughout the year, alongside remote interviews for international outlets.
