Why Divorce Needs a Child-Centered Approach — with Christina McGhee

In this episode of Founders Future, with host Milan Kohut, we’re joined by Christina McGhee, founder of Divorce and Children and creator of the Co-Parenting Specialist Training Program. Christina shares how her personal experience as a child of divorce and later as a stepmother, combined with her background in social work, led her to dedicate her career to helping families navigate separation in a healthier, child-centered way. What began as teaching court-mandated parenting classes evolved into a lifelong mission to keep children at the center—not in the middle—of divorce.Christina explains how her work now spans two interconnected paths: coaching parents through high-conflict and emotionally complex divorces, and training divorce professionals worldwide to apply a child-centered framework in their practice. The conversation explores her evolution from one-on-one coaching to large-scale professional training, the role of relationships and word-of-mouth in building trust and credibility, and the challenges of scaling impact while preserving quality. Christina also reflects on leadership, delegation, and the long-term vision of creating a global movement that reshapes how divorce is experienced by families and children.Connect with Christina McGhee:🌐 Website – Divorce and Children: https://www.divorceandchildren.com 🎓 The Co-Parenting Specialist® Training Program (CoPS): https://www.coparentingspecialist.com 📸 Instagram / Facebook: @divorceandchildren 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamcghee/ 📰 Media Page (Bio & Headshot): https://divorceandchildren.com/about/media/
