    To Nest or Not to Nest: Navigating Co-Parenting Choices During Divorce

    There are lots of co-parenting choices to be made in divorce like cohabitating or nesting — it’s not always easy to know which is right for you.

She offers insights into the potential pitfalls of nesting, such as difficulties in cooperation and heightened emotions, while also highlighting its advantages as a stopgap solution in the early stages of a divorce. Kristen encourages you to trust your intuition, remain flexible in your decisions, and prioritize self-care throughout the process.

Dr. Mrinalini ,

Amazing coaches!

I worked with Bill and Kristen when I was going through a divorce. I had no idea how to navigate this transition, especially with my 4 yr old son. Kristen and Bill held me through the whole process where I learned so much about myself, my superpowers, my vulnerabilities and also accountability. I have become a better person and a better mother because of their unconditional TLC and genuine desire for my success.
