Listen Later

Thinking about introducing the new love of your life to your kiddos? 


Wait! Before you do, listen to this episode!!  


This week we have special guest Heather Harman, a co-parent coach, stepfamily coach, and parent educator. She has trained with and continues to use the guiding principles of her mentor, Karen Bonnell. Heather has an MA in Education and uses her knowledge of child development, parent education, and mediation to guide her clients in the direction of what is best for the family.  


Tune in to hear sage advice from Heather including:

  • Having big convos with your new partner before any introductions
  • Why you will never be replaced by your Ex's new partner
  • How to introduce a new partner in an age-appropriate way to your child
  • Why we can't apply the Gottman approach of partner relationships-before-kids in a stepfamily setting
  • and why you might want to give your Ex a heads up that you're on the dating apps

    • Even if you're not ready to make introductions yet, listen so that you have all the tools once you do!
