This is Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby, and you're listening to the love, happiness, and success Podcast.

On today's show, we're talking about divorce with kids.

Nobody wants to get divorced, and it is not the most pleasant topic to discuss on this podcast or elsewhere. But divorce is also

incredibly real and it's common. And if you are looking down the barrel of a divorce right now,

I know that you need help with this. You need guidance because this is really hard. It's a difficult

experience for anyone, but it's especially hard

if you're a parent and trying to figure out how to have a healthy divorce with kids involved.

There are just so many things to figure out, you know, how to talk to your kids about divorce,

how to separate your lives with children, how to co-parent. And then the biggest thing,

I think, is how to meet the emotional needs of your children. Well, it feels like your own

life is kind of falling apart, you know, at least for a while. And this is tough stuff for

anyone. And again, it's just so incredibly important to be talking about this so that you can get good information to help guide you through this transition.

And so that's why we're talking about it on today's show.

And that is why I have invited my colleague here at Growing Self, Dr. Amy Smith, to join us because she is a true

expert on helping divorcing families get through this transition in the healthiest way possible

for all involved. And I wanted you to have the very best help. So I have invited her to chat

with us today. So Amy, thank you so much for being here.

Yeah, thank you so much for having me. I am so excited to be here today. Yeah, it's going to be a

great conversation. And now I do, I do need to formally introduce you. And with other guests,

I would probably ask them to share a little bit about themselves, but I know you are so modest and you're not going to toot your own horn.

So I'm actually going to go ahead and toot that horn for you.

Okay.
