Every parent wants to create a heathy environment for their kids as they move between homes, but conflict between parents does just the opposite — and the results can be detrimental.

…you don't have to lose hope or give up on trying to improve co-parenting interactions. 

In this episode we'll share a simple strategy and practical tools to help you show up in a way that can make a real difference in your co-parenting relationship.  

You can experience better communication and even more peace — even if your Ex doesn't change a thing.  And you already know that ultimately it's your kids who will benefit most!

You'll Discover:

  • Why cooperative co-parenting is important for your kids well-being
  • How you can promote effective communication and break unproductive cycles in your co-parenting relationships

  • A simple tool to remove the barriers of poor communication, misunderstandings and misguided assumptions
