In this episode, I sit down with Maria Natapov, step-parenting and co-parenting coach, and facilitator of the BeH2O® framework, to explore how parents can work together — even after separation — to give their children the best chance to thrive.

Maria shares practical, foundational communication strategies to help you collaborate with your child’s other parent, reduce conflict, and create an environment where your kids feel safe, supported, and free from stress. She touches on the importance of discovering your deeper “why” in parenting — and how that clarity can guide your interactions, improve relationships, and bring more purpose into every area of your life.

In my questions to Maria, I want to know the hard stuff: How do we do this with difficult co-parents? What do we do when there are issue that come up that aren't in our divorce decree? What if the other parent refuses to attend a joint program like this? Let's dive in!

If you’ve ever wondered how to navigate co-parenting with less tension and more teamwork, this conversation will give you tools, hope, and a clear path forward.
