The co-parenting taboo no-one talks about

from Her Turn Hosted by Dani Hanlon

Most co-parenting advice out there assumes two emotionally regulated adults - but many women are navigating a very different reality. When you’re the one holding the emotional stability, managing communication, and absorbing the ripple effects of another adult’s behaviour, the load becomes far heavier than anyone acknowledges. In this episode, Dani explores the hidden emotional labour of being the 'regulated parent’, why the exhaustion you feel isn’t a personal failure, and how chronic co-parenting stress impacts your nervous system, sleep, and sense of calm. Most importantly, Dani talks about what it takes to begin shifting out of constant alert mode and start creating real internal safety again.
