Want a Co-parenting Coach’s Help?
After you divorce or separate from your child’s other parent, your parenting journey continues. Some find it easy. Some find it hard. And some find it impossible. Regardless of whether you like it or not, you will be co-parenting with this person for the rest of your life. Would you like to make that journey easier? Would you like to be a better parent to your children following divorce?
I’ve been a co-parent for over 20 years and a stepparent for more than 15 years. It wasn’t always easy. It took intention and a maniacal focus on what is important. For me, that was to be a good parent. No one else could do that for me. But I did not believe this had to come at the sacrifice of my personal happiness. So I set out to solve that problem. As a result, I came up with the 3 Cs of Collaborative Co-parenting—Civility, Communication, and Caring. These 3 Cs make up the foundation of my co-parent coaching approach.

But while most co-parenting books tell parents to just put the kids first even if that means sacrificing their own happiness, Combative to Collaborative shows parents how supporting each other as good parenting partners ensures they do what’s best for their kids while also achieving personal happiness. Move from anger, hurt, and loss to consideration, kindness, and cooperation.You will discover:
