Co-Parenting and Coffee
by Jillian Andre & Ally McArthur
Picture this...You’re sitting with your friends…other moms, who have gone through a divorce or are contemplating. Who maybe didn’t picture their lives co-parenting, but are there with you. You are sharing your stories, you are inspiring each other, validating and challenging each other through your shared experiences. You are belly laughing, tearing up, and enjoying your favorite cup of coffee all at the same time. You don’t judge each other, you empower each other to continue on your journey, to heal, and to just be you whatever that looks like. Welcome to Co-parenting and Coffee.
