Breakups are part of life. Children are a part of life. But…the two don’t go together all that well, right? Well, I’ve called in the experts to help!

This week I am joined by two of return co-hosts and friends of the show to take a deep dive into (almost) everything that has to do with discussing breakups with your children. Dating-after-divorce coach Brian Dunn and co-parenting coach Katie Davie join me for a powerful roundtable chat about this sticky circumstance. We cover:

-Telling your children that you and their other parent are getting a divorce

-The difference between telling children about divorce and other types of breakups

-Age-appropriate ways to have these discussions

-Looking after yourself while looking after your children

-How much is too much as far as involving your children in your breakups

-Introducing new partners to your children

-Talking about your co-parent’s breakups

-AND MORE

PLUS: Listener questions!
