In this episode, we discuss the sobering and powerful connection between your mental health and your child’s well-being. Parenting is challenging, and co-parenting adds unique dynamics that can impact your emotional state — and your kids' too. But here’s the good news: taking care of yourself is one of the best ways to support your children.

Join us as we explore:

• How stress, anxiety, or burnout in parents can affect kids emotionally and behaviorally.
• Practical tips for managing your mental health while navigating the complexities of co-parenting.
• The science behind emotional modeling and how it shapes your child’s resilience.
• Ways to foster a nurturing environment across two households.

Whether you’re co-parenting amicably or facing challenges, this episode provides actionable insights and expert advice to help you and your children thrive together. Because when you care for yourself, you give your kids the greatest gift: a healthy, happy parent.
