  • Co-parenting

    Co-parenting is rarely simple and often gets pretty messy. Moms who go through a divorce frequently struggle in silence as the drama of co-parenting can weigh heavily on their mental health. In an effort to normalize the chaos of co-parenting, I surveyed divorced moms about their experiences. I'm pulling all of the survey responses together to provide some perspective and a glimpse into the difficult trenches of co-parenting.

    • Confessions of a Mom
      For one week, I asked Moms on social media to submit Mom Confessions in a private message with me. Mom Confessions could be heartfelt, tough, scary or even downright hilarious (and believe me...I received some of each category).  I wanted to take these confessions and share them anonymously in a podcast episode.  The concept behind this episode was to further normalize the chaos of Motherhood. We are not alone in our tough moments, we are not alone in our scary moments, we are not alone in our ridiculous Mom fails. Thank you to the Moms who shared their very raw and real moments for this episode...it wouldn't be possible without your willingness to open up and share your story.
