As single parents, we want to give our children the same opportunities they would have had in a "traditional home." This includes, encouraging them to participate in extracurricular activities, but how should you handle that with your co-parent? This week on Unfiltered, Michelle Dempsey-Multack and Co-Host Jess Evans will breakdown the best way to approach sporting events, school activities and more. Michelle and Jess will discuss:

The importance of trying to attend events with your co-parent

Following your child's lead

Sharing important dates and events with your co-parent

Ensuring your child does not feel like they have to "choose" a parent during or after events

AND MUCH MORE!

Jess is a single mom of two, Michelle's assistant and lead coach at Moms Moving On. She has worked alongside Michelle for years and takes a child centered approach to co-parenting. Jess was a SAHM while going through her divorce in 2018 and the thought of spending time away from her kids broke her heart. She quickly learned that it isn't always about the quantity of time spent with her kids, rather the quality. Her and her children live in Wisconsin and love everything the Midwest has to offer. As a family, they enjoy watching football, playing golf, getting outside and creating fun memories together. When Jess is not with her kids, she is spending time with her new partner, golfing and enjoying time with her girlfriends. As a child of divorce who has no relationship with her father, Jess wanted to ensure her children grew up having a strong relationship with both of their parents.As a coach, Jess is passionate about empowering her clients and helping them move on emotionally after the divorce is final. She works closely with her clients to help them find new ways to fill their cup as they enter the world of co-parenting. She also enjoys working with clients to create a child-centered parenting plan that is fine tuned to avoid any grey area. If you are looking for support during or after the divorce, Jess would be honored to work with you.
