Parenting doesn’t end when your marriage does!
This conversation hit all the divorce and co-parenting spots WE ALL NEED TO HEAR!
The lovely Michelle Dempsey joined us on the podcast, to share not only parts of her story as a divorced mother, but also what she sees in the coaching practice with her clients. This recording hit home from the moment we started chatting, and I’m so excited to share this episode with you.
Pour a glass of wine and join us as we talk about…
The narrative we set for ourselves as divorced, single parents, to “compete” with the other parent and lose sight of our personal and parenting boundaries with our children
How to co-parent with someone you just don’t get along with anymore!
Parents understanding that they are still parents 24/7, even if their children are not with them in the visitation schedule (here, I shared a very personal example of my stepmom experience and a cringe moment I needed to navigate)
A pro tip shared by Michelle on how shared values can keep your co-parenting relationship grounded whether you get along or not
Focusing on your child and their life across two homes versus the obsession of the parenting plan and projecting your needs and hurt onto the other co-parent
