There’s a silent epidemic unfolding in family courtrooms and living rooms alike: parents caught in the wreckage of high-conflict divorce parenting, expected to co-parent with someone who may have betrayed, manipulated, or emotionally wounded them. This book is a lifeline for those navigating that impossible space—the ones expected to keep the peace when peace feels like a lie.
It doesn’t offer surface-level strategies or hollow calls for civility. Instead, it dives deep into the emotional trenches of co-parenting with a toxic ex, giving readers the tools to break free from power struggles, guilt, and psychological traps. Drawing from trauma-informed frameworks and real-world stories, it guides parents toward clarity, stability, and self-respect—no matter how the other parent behaves.
If you’re parenting through grief, rage, or disillusionment, this book offers more than advice—it offers transformation.
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
- Set parenting boundaries with an ex—firmly and ethically
- Disengage from destructive patterns without abandoning your child’s needs
- Use co-parenting communication strategies that de-escalate conflict
- Parent from a place of purpose, not pain—even in the aftermath of betrayal
- Heal yourself so you don’t pass the emotional fallout onto your child
For anyone trying to parent through a storm of post-divorce family dynamics, this book speaks with the clarity of experience and the compassion of someone who’s walked the path. Whether you’re dealing with how to co-parent with a narcissist, craving emotionally intelligent co-parenting, or looking to practice trauma-informed parenting divorce, you’ll find a way forward here.
This is not a manual for fixing your ex. It’s a map for reclaiming yourself.
