Founded by two best friends who didn’t know how to help each other through their own divorces, Untied launches a gift registry and cash gift fund for starting over

LEXINGTON, Ky., Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Everyone knows what to bring to a wedding shower. Nobody knows what to bring to a divorce. Untied (lifeuntied.com) launches today to change that: a gift registry and cash gift fund built for people starting over after a divorce or breakup. Add anything from any store, collect cash toward the costs that don’t fit in a box, like deposits, legal fees and moving trucks, and send one private link to the people who keep saying “let me know if you need anything.”

Society has a script for nearly every major milestone. Weddings come with registries and showers. Babies come with showers and meal trains. Graduations, promotions and new homes come with parties and gifts. Divorce comes with a card or bottle of wine, if you’re lucky, and a lot of well-meaning people who don’t know what to say or do.

“The social norms for how to ask for help, and how to give it, are missing for one of the most transformative events in a person’s life,” said co-founder Amy Walker. “We want to change the narrative around that and empower friends and loved ones to show their support in a meaningful way.”

Untied was founded by two best friends who have been through many of life’s major milestones together: weddings, babies, career changes and divorce. Even then, when it was their turn to start over, they found it hard to know how to help each other. Untied exists because this milestone deserves recognition too.

“Nobody hands you a starter kit for beginning again, so we built one,” said Danielle Parsons, co-founder of Untied. “A registry gives friends something specific and useful to do, and it gives the person starting over a way to say what would help without having to explain or ask twice.”

How Untied works

• Add anything from anywhere. Registrants build a registry from favorite stores and brands from anywhere across the internet – not just one store.
• Cash gift funds. Guests can contribute to costs that don’t come in a box, such as deposits, moving expenses, legal fees or a first month of groceries.
• Share it privately. Each registry has its own private link, so registrants decide exactly who sees it.

Creating a registry on Untied is free. The company earns revenue from the cash gift processing fee, affiliate commissions when guests purchase through partner retailers, and select partner placements.
