Protecting Kids Through Divorce with Jill Kaufman

Welcome back to New Beginnings: A Marriage and Divorce Podcast!

I am thrilled to welcome Jill Kaufman to the show for this episode. 

Jill is a divorce coach, therapist, mediator, and co-parenting expert. After going through her own difficult divorce, Jill made it her life's mission to help others not have it so tough. Her book, online course, and her transformational coaching program help parents navigate the overwhelming process of divorce so that they have less stress, more confidence and a greater sense of peace.

In this episode we address:

• The idea of "staying for the kids" and how it really impacts children
• Co-parents bad mouthing each other to the kids and ways to avoid falling into this trap
• How the BIFF style of communication is invaluable for parents going through divorce
• The importance of protecting yourself and your children emotionally
