Choosing Peace Amidst The Endless Storm, With Coparenting Expert Samantha Boss
The problem for Samantha Boss wasn’t getting divorced; it was surviving the post-divorce abuse so many suffer when leaving a narcissistic ex (in her case the ex was diagnosed), or even just a deliberately cruel person. Many of us can relate.It took the moment of her own son holding a mirror up to her face that snapped her into a realization which changed her life: If she wasn’t willing to examine her own participation in the unhealthy dynamic, and wasn’t willing to stand up to her abuser…she could never expect her children to. And that changed everything.
Her four year long divorce complete with 300 court filings was just the beginning, and Sam has been through it all. Now together with her grown children she shares the hard won, no nonsense lessons she wishes she’d known, through her podcast, guidebooks and coaching services. Whether its the parenting plan, mediation prep, or her parental alienation response guide, Sam has your back. Because she was the only one who had her own.

Is every marriage actually worth saving?After three decades in marriage therapy and coaching, Dr. Lee Baucom has seen firsthand how shifting mindset and personal responsibility not only helps repair struggling marriages, but can also protect children from ongoing pain, whether or not a couple stays married.
