When co-parenting feels impossible because of constant conflict, there is another way. It’s called parallel parenting—a structure designed for high-conflict divorce that reduces interaction, sets clear boundaries, and allows both parents to focus on their children’s wellbeing.

In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I’m joined by Randi Karmel, PLLC, a family law attorney, mediator, and parent coordinator with decades of experience helping families navigate custody disputes, substance abuse cases, and complex parenting dynamics.

Randi and I explore how to create a parallel parenting plan that actually works. We talk about what must be included in your legal agreement, the pitfalls to avoid, and how to handle the inevitable gray areas that come with real life. You’ll also hear why having a parent coordinator can be a game-changer in easing ongoing conflict.

If you’re facing high-conflict divorce or struggling with parenting arrangements, this episode will give you practical tools to reduce stress, minimize court battles, and prioritize your child’s emotional safety.
