In our interview, Anna chats about her experience with divorce as a teenager. Since it wasn't as common at the time, she experienced a tough battle between her mother and father, typical of how we traditionally think of divorce with everything split in the middle. It affected her self esteem, her confidence, and she didn't know any better. But when it came her time to co-parent, she said no to the luggages back and forth and created two real homes for her son.

Anna says that the rocky parts of divorce "shakes us. It de-stabilizes us, our self confidence, that we failed" But really, it's not about failure. She says "it's a learning experience and forces us to look at our selves and ask ourselves why".

"What's the best thing that could happen if we go separate ways?"

On working with Anna, she helps divorced parents transition into their new role of co-parents. She teaches her clients how to raise children together in 2 separate homes, they still need to communicate, respect each other, respect each other's private lives, and what needs to be communicated.

The common goal is "to raise beautiful, healthy kids, so you can both go to their wedding".
