Divorce. Answers to the Questions You Want To Ask. Are you a parent navigating the complexities of divorce? You're not alone, and this episode of "The Impactful Parent" is a must-watch! In this incredibly insightful episode, your host, Kristina Campos, sits down with Joe Dillon, a seasoned divorce mediator from Equitable Mediation Services, to discuss how parents can protect their children and create a peaceful path forward during and after a divorce. Joe shares invaluable wisdom on the power of choosing mediation to model respectful co-parenting for your kids. You'll learn why a "carved in sand" approach to parenting plans is essential for adapting to your children's changing needs as they grow. They also tackle the tough topic of high-conflict situations and offer practical advice, including the use of specialized parenting apps to de-escalate tension and minimize direct communication. The conversation goes deep into what it truly means to "put the kids first," highlighting the importance of quality "awake time" and unconventional living arrangements, like nesting, that prioritize your child's stability. Joe also shares a powerful story about giving older children a voice in their living situation, demonstrating that putting ego aside is the most impactful choice a parent can make. This video is packed with actionable advice and compassionate guidance for anyone facing the challenges of divorce and co-parenting. Whether you're just starting the process or are years into it, you’ll walk away with new strategies to create a healthier, happier environment for your entire family.
