After Gina's ex-husband was arrested for a domestic violence incident, Gina and her ex learned to put their differences aside in order to put their children first, and it's something Gina says she's "really proud of."

To know Gina Kirschenheiter from Bravo's Real Housewives of Orange County is to love her, but to also know how hard she's worked to put the pain of her divorce behind her in order to co-parent well, is to respect her something fierce.

In this episode, Gina candidly shares what her experience was like post domestic violence incident, how it actually strengthened her co-parenting relationship with her ex whom she shares 3 children with, and what life in a big, beautiful, blended family is like with her partner Travis.
Gina Kirschenheiter is an American TV personality who is best known for starring in The Real Housewives of Orange County. She joined the cast in Season 13. Originally from Long Island and a graduate of Hofstra University, Gina now lives in Orange County, California with her partner, Travis, and their 7 children.

September 25, 2023Breaking the Stigma of Single Motherhood: How to Shift Your Perspective on Being a Single Mom; with guest Ashley Simpo
Many women prolong the divorce process because they don't want to be stigmatized as "that" single mom. Often times, when we think of single motherhood, we think of the mom that is doing it all on her own, with no help of the other parent but in many cases, this isn't typically what we see. This week Michelle Dempsey-Multack is joined by Ashley Simpo to discuss their personal experience with single motherhood.

Michelle and Ashley will educate listeners on:
Empathizing with women who may not have the support of a co-parent financially or physically

Understanding that you don't have to be friends with your co-parent

Giving your space to rest and recharge

AND MUCH MORE

September 15, 2023Moms Moving On (Unfiltered): A New Partner: What to do When Your Ex Meets Someone New; with co-host Jess Evans
In the first few episodes of Moms Moving On: Unfiltered, Michelle Dempsey-Multack and Jess Evans covered dating after divorce and introducing your new partner to your children, but what happens when it is your ex that has someone new in their life? Even if you were the one who chose divorce, your ex dating someone new can trigger emotions you weren't expecting.

Michelle and Jess will take a deep dive into:
Managing your emotions when your ex has moved on

Not going down a rabbit hole of "what ifs" surrounding their new partner

Having conversations with your children, without interrogating them

Not feeling like you have to move on, just because your ex has

AND SO MUCH MORE!

Jess is a single mom of two, Michelle's assistant and lead coach at Moms Moving On. She has worked alongside Michelle for years and takes a child centered approach to co-parenting. Jess was a SAHM while going through her divorce in 2018 and the thought of spending time away from her kids broke her heart. She quickly learned that it isn't always about the quantity of time spent with her kids, rather the quality. Her and her children live in Wisconsin and love everything the Midwest has to offer. As a family, they enjoy watching football, playing golf, getting outside and creating fun memories together. When Jess is not with her kids, she is spending time with her new partner, golfing and enjoying time with her girlfriends. As a child of divorce who has no relationship with her father, Jess wanted to ensure her children grew up having a strong relationship with both of their parents.
As a coach, Jess is passionate about empowering her clients and helping them move on emotionally after the divorce is final. She works closely with her clients to help them find new ways to fill their cup as they enter the world of co-parenting. She also enjoys working with clients to create a child-centered parenting plan that is fine tuned to avoid any grey area. If you are looking for support during or after the divorce, Jess would be honored to work with you.
