January 22, 2024Moms Moving On (Unfiltered) Hard Truth, Your Friendships Are Going to Change After Divorce: Here is How to Handle That; with co-host Jess Evans
When your marriage is ending, you know your relationship with your soon-to-be-ex will change, but what about your friendships? This week on Unfiltered, Michelle Dempsey-Multack and Jess Evans will take a deep dive into their experience with friendships during and after divorce.

In this information packed episode, they will discuss:
The flockers and fleers, how to identify them and what to do about it

Finding your "tribe" in the divorce process

Understanding that people may pull away because they are also having marital problems

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.

Modeling a healthy relationship for your children
