As we head into the holiday season and Black Friday shopping, Susan Guthrie, Esq., welcomes Lisa McGregor of The Unplanned Chapter to the show! Lisa shares support and wisdom about gift-giving, your kids, and your ex this holiday season.
After divorce, there is a desire to separate lives between you and your ex. However, if you are co-parenting, you and your ex will always be connected through your child in one way or another. So when it comes to gift-giving around the holidays or special celebrations, co-parents often struggle with helping their child buy a gift for the other parent. When it comes down to it, it's not about you, it's about your child and Lisa knows from personal experience.
Lisa McGregor joins Susan Guthrie for a conversation about how to help your children purchase a gift for the other parent in their lives; even if the other parent: doesn’t help your child/children get a gift for you or refuses to accept anything from you.
Lisa McGregor is Co-Parenting Coach who is helping women to embrace their new role of part time parenting. For nearly two decades, Lisa has been motivating women to help them improve their lives by learning to love their bodies through diet and exercise.
Topics and Golden Nuggets include
- Gift-giving for a co-parent is not about you. It’s about your child and helping them show their love and foster a relationship with a co-parent.
- Some of the “Yeah, but’s” co-parents struggle when it comes to gift-giving
- The subtle nuances of helping your children celebrate their other parent and/or honor their choice to forgo giving a gift
- Share what you are doing with your kids this holiday season and use the hashtag #Gettingthegift
- On gift-giving: “The biggest payout of all is seeing the joy in your child’s eyes. Allow that to be the drive to do it again in the future. ”
This episode is a reminder that gift-giving is not about you. It’s always about your child. Give your child permission to celebrate with their parent and help them in whatever way you can!
