An Unexpected Journey: The Road to Power and Wisdom in Divorced Co-Parenting - Alisa Jaffe Holleron Lcsw - Bog

Fears about children and/or finances naturally lead to painful negative emotions such as anger, frustration and resentment. When we are overcome by these emotions, we lose our ability to be rational, make good decisions and communicate effectively. In these states, we often inadvertently work against our own best interests and those of our children. An Unexpected Journey stands apart from other co-parenting work in that it focuses on recognizing and working with these intense emotional states. In a respectful and compassionate way, An Unexpected Journey focuses on cultivating skills that empower divorced co-parents to understand and move out of difficult emotional states and into a place of clarity, power and wisdom. From this non-reactive, grounded place we are able to make decisions that benefit ourselves and our children.
