Mental Motherhood #5: Splitting the Baby (ft. Kristin Sharp, LCSW-S)

This week we’re talking to Kristin Sharp about what it’s like to be a divorced co-parent, struggling to navigate the boundaries of sharing parenting when not living together. There’s so much loss of control and grief in the divorce experience and when it’s happening in-tandem with trying to parent a small child, it’s really tough -- we’re grateful that Kristin gets vulnerable and goes into it all with us!
