Your Survival Guide to Co-Parenting with a Narcissist or Other High Conflict Person with the CEO of The High Conflict Institute, Megan Hunter on The Divorce & Beyond Podcast #200

In this very special 100th episode of Divorce & Beyond, Host Susan Guthrie is joined by the CEO of The High Conflict Institute, Megan Hunter, to help tackle one of the most difficult issues in divorce: trying to co-parent with a narcissist or other high conflict person.  

Divorce is hard under the best of circumstances, but for most people, it will come to an end and their lives will smooth out and they will go forward with their lives and even co-parent peacefully for the most part, but then there are the high conflict cases.  The ones where your ex tries to turn the kids against you, drags you back to court every other week and continues to cause chaos and havoc in your life no matter how long ago the divorce was finalized.  How do you survive that High-Conflict Co-Parenting paradigm and more importantly, how do you help your kids through it all?

Megan Hunter, the CEO of The High Conflict Institute with Co-Founder, Bill Eddy, is here to help with her book: The High-Conflict Co-Parenting Survival Guide!  Megan shares invaluable advice and practical strategies on ways to manage your anger, stress, fear and worry as you continue to have to maintain a co-parenting relationship with a narcissist or other high conflict person.  Listen to this episode and you WILL have HOPE and a game-plan for the future!

As a special offer for this 100th episode, Susan is giving away a copy of Megan's book, The High Conflict Co-Parenting Survival Guide!  Want to enter?  Just send an email to divorceandbeyondpod@gmail.com with a short statement of why you listen to Divorce & Beyond and we will pick a winner in the second week of October!

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOR:

Thriving in divorce and beyond means not having to worry about the safety of your children when it comes to co-parenting. With alcohol abuse on the rise, many co-parents are turning to the system committed to providing proof, protection, and peace of mind. Soberlink’s alcohol monitoring system is the most convenient, reliable, and reasonable way for a parent to provide evidence that they are not drinking during parenting time. Soberlink’s real-time alerts, facial recognition, and tamper detection ensure the integrity of each test, so you can be confident your kids are with a sober parent. With Soberlink, judges rest assured that your child is safe, attorneys get court-admissible evidence of sobriety, and both parents have empowerment and peace of mind. Pull back the curtain on the mysteries of parenting time and trust The Experts in Remote Alcohol Monitoring Technology™ to keep you informed and your kids safe and secure.
