Two Homes, One Love: Navigating the Coparenting JourneyOn this episode of Blended Life, we answer three of our listeners questions: 1.  How do you deal with secrets in a blended family when one household keeps things from the other?  What about dealing with the stress of knowing information as the step parent that both bio parents are keeping from their children?2.  How do you as the new spouse get to be okay with your husband's ex being absolutely cruel to him when he won't even try your advice to stop it?3.  How do you handle it when your partner agrees to have scheduled time together with you and then allows their child to hijack that time to connect?These are big topics that center all around the need to be understood.  We hope you enjoy this episode!  Comment below and let us know one thing you took away from our perspectives addressing these issues. becomingheardnow@gmail.comBlended Family Life and Health Coaching.

Could a "card game" make dividing up parenting responsibilities with your co-parent easier? Ever since Elise Buie in Episode #75 told me about Eve Rodsky's book "Fair Play," I've wanted to dive into how we can use this system or "card game" to divide up tasks in co-parenting. When I met Frederick Van Riper, a coach for men & dads and a Certified Fair Play facilitator, I knew he'd be a great guest to answer all my questions. In this episode, we dive into: What is the "Fair Play" system How can you use it if you're partnered, co-parenting, or on your own with kiddos Common challenges to get started How Frederick's relationship with his wife went from good to great after implementing Fair Play Why your co-parent thriving is in your best interest Fair Play lays out all the work that goes into maintaining our household and raising kids. I'd recommend reading Fair Play to anyone who is in a partnership, hopes to be in a new relationship, or is co-parenting (no matter the temperature of your co-parenting relationship). Even if you don't imagine sitting down with your co-parent to work through the "card game," getting clear for yourself on what is in your hand versus what is in your co-parent's can reduce stress and confusion.

Co-Parenting & The Gospel with Alex Bowers

Hey y'all! It's me, Sarah from Texas, back at it again with all the latest reality tv gossip & Jeff Lewis related talk! I had so much piping hot tea to spill about Jeff Lewis, Heather McDonald, the earring drama, and more juicy scoop. Let me tell you, I have thoughts and questions!

Oh, and I can't wait to see how it all unfolds with Sai De Silva & Rick & Kelly next week. It's gonna be good. In between the gossip, we got real about some heavy topics like cancer and losing loved ones. Even with the laughs, this group really shows up for each other. Love my Jeff Lewis chumpettes! Alright y'all, that's enough from me. Let's reconvene on Monday—same time, same place. Can't wait to spill more tea with my faves! Bye for now!"

Dear listeners, pardon my absence! After taking a year off of the podcast, being pregnant, buying a house, having a baby, getting engaged, I am back and ready to share some new content on the podcast. This season on To Hump a Pillow, I invite my fiance Mike to the podcast in a 7-Episode Relationship Series to discuss challenging conversations that occur in couple-hood. We'll deep-dive into 7 deliciously uncomfortable topics: How to talk about envious and jealous feelings How to talk about money and finances, spending habits Sex life - how it's changed over our relationship and how to ask for what you need On taking things too personally Maintaining individualism and ensuring alone time Day to day compromising Coparenting in a blended family In this episode, Mike and I discuss difficult feelings and values around money, like: Money mindset How money was discussed in our homes, upbringing Our challenges with talking about money As a woman, making my own money to be able to make empowered decisions Spending money seperately, together, and on large purchases     For questions regarding this topic, please email hump@ellenmelon.com ____________________ For more info on 1-on-1 coaching program: https://www.ellenmelon.com/intimacy-coaching ____________________ Coach Ellen Melon links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ellenmelonshow/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ellenmelonshow Website: https://www.ellenmelon.com  

In last week's episode, we talked about why people resist change and did a quick review of the 5 SCARF domains - status, certainty, autonomy, relatedness, and fairness. Today, we want to dive deep into the domain of certainty and discuss how uncertainty impacts both resistance to change and conflict.We consistently see a perfect storm of someone's tolerance for risk, their resilience and their emotional intelligence come together to either weather the uncertainty and changes that divorce brings or create more waves by feeling afraid and resisting them.To the human mind, uncertainty equals danger. If your brain doesn't know what's coming next, it can't protect you. So it has a tendency to assume the worst, over-personalize threats, and jump to conclusions. Did you know that our brains find psychological uncertainty just as (if not more) painful than actual physical pain?We crave certainty and safety. No wonder the uncertainty of divorce has the potential to create so much chaos.We discuss the results of scientific studies as well as research with elite athletes and then share 4 coaching strategies and some powerful questions to use with clients struggling with uncertainty. Our role is to support clients in their resilience, their decision making, and their emotional management so they are in the best possible position possible to deal with the almost guaranteed uncertainty that comes along with divorce and co-parenting.Learn more about DCA™ or  any of the classes or events mentioned in this episode at the links below:Nov TED Talk Discussion Group: Sign Up HereWebsite: www.divorcecoachesacademy.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/divorcecoachesacademyLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/divorce-coaches-academyEmail: DCA@divorcecoachesacademy.com

This week on Divorce & Beyond with Susan Guthrie, we're bringing back an episode from the archives that featured invaluable insights from Christina McGhee, America's Favorite Parenting Expert.  In this episode, Christina shares her wisdom on how co-parents can create a holiday season that's less stressful and more joyful for their children. This topic is especially relevant during the holiday season. As the festive lights twinkle and the world seems to sparkle with the holiday spirit, we know this season can also bring a mix of emotions and stress for co-parents. Whether it's your first holiday after a separation or you've been navigating this season for years, Christina's practical and actionable advice is a gift that keeps on giving. She covers everything from how to communicate with your co-parent about the holidays to managing gifts and family expectations and ensuring your children feel the joy of the season. So, settle in and revisit these essential strategies and tips with Christina in this special Replay episode. **************************************** About this week's special guest: Christina McGhee Christina McGhee, MSW is an internationally recognized divorce parenting expert, speaker, and author. While splitting up is undeniably hard, Christina believes divorce doesn't have to equal devastation for families. She feels with the right kind of information and support, parents have the ability to be a child's absolute best resource when families change.  Throughout her career, she has educated both parents and professionals on how to minimize the impact of divorce on children. In her book, PARENTING APART: How separated and divorced parents can raise happy and secure kids,  Christina offers parents useful strategies for dealing with the “real-life” everyday challenges of coparenting. One of her core beliefs is that divorce doesn't make you a bad parent, it makes you a parent going through a bad time.  Because she is passionate about helping parents get through that bad time, Christina also maintains an active coaching practice that allows her to work with Moms and Dads all over the world. Most recently, Christina launched an online program, Coparenting with Purpose. Designed to provide moms and dads with an easy, convenient way to access critical information, it's filled with practical tools and solutions for managing the most common coparenting problems. Additionally, she has contributed to several other media projects as a featured expert, a content consultant, and a writer/producer. Currently, she serves as a consulting producer and subject matter expert for the documentaries SPLIT: A film for kids and their parents and Split UP: The Teen Years, two compelling films that let kids know they're not alone and normalize the many feelings and experiences children and teens encounter when parents part. Over the years, she has been featured on television, radio, podcasts, and in print around the US and abroad.

Navigating the turbulent waters of divorce can be a daunting task. Imagine trying to parent effectively amid it all, especially when dealing with a high-conflict ex. Today, we were privileged to delve into this sensitive topic with AJ Gajjar, a seasoned trauma-informed child development specialist and parenting consultant. Her insights reveal the challenges children face transitioning between drastically different environments and how stress impacts their brain development. She also underlines the importance of prioritizing children's needs during a divorce, something that can often be sidelined in the heat of the conflict.As a children's advocate, AJ's broad understanding of child behavioral patterns arms her with effective strategies to help mitigate their trauma. Her vast knowledge of the workings of the amygdala, hippocampus, and the prefrontal cortex, and how they play a significant role in regulating emotions, is critical for parents in understanding their children's behavior. She emphasizes the importance of creating an emotionally safe environment for children, and building strong relationships with them, as these are key in trauma healing and supporting their overall development.What sets AJ apart is her invaluable advice on how to parent effectively with a high-conflict ex. AJ will cover three main topics: Why Co-parenting or parallel parenting with a high-conflict ex does not workHow to mitigate your child's painful experiences so they don't turn into TraumaThe 3 keys to parenting with a high-conflict ex It's a conversation that's not only invaluable for those going through a high-conflict divorce, but for any parent wanting to shield their child from potential trauma during a divorce.Free Gift from AJ Gajjar.AJ Gajjar's WebsiteContact AJ Directly: aj@thetraumahealingparent.comFollow AJ Gajjar on FB here.To schedule your complimentary consult with Karin click here.Make sure to follow and rate the podcast on your favorite podcasting app.For more information and full show notes go to:https://www.karinnelsoncoaching.com/post/ep137
