Today we continue our look back at some of the most popular episodes of Co-Parenting with Confidence.

In this encore episode, I share one of my favorite truths: your feelings don’t come from your ex, your circumstances, or the outside world—they come from your thoughts. When I discovered this, it completely shifted how I showed up as a mom and co-parent. Understanding that I’m not at the mercy of anyone else has been both liberating and empowering, and I want the same freedom for you.

I’ll walk you through how our thoughts create our feelings, how those feelings drive our actions, and how awareness is the key to taking back control. You’ll also learn a simple but powerful tool—four questions from Byron Katie—that can help you reframe the painful thoughts that keep you stuck.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, frustrated, or hopeless in your co-parenting journey, this episode will give you the mindset shifts you need to reclaim your peace and confidence.

Takeaways:

  • Your feelings come from your thoughts, not external circumstances.
  • You always have the power to choose how you think and feel.
  • Awareness creates freedom and choice.
  • A simple 4-question tool can help shift painful thought patterns.

If you’re ready to stop feeling powerless and start showing up with confidence, reach out—I’d love to support you. https://calendly.com/coachwithmikki/co-parent-breakthrough-call
