How do you coparent (maybe even if the other parent doesn't want to)?
Season 11 · Episode 2
vendredi 20 juin 2025 • Duration 39:09
How do you work together with someone you may no longer like, trust, or even want to speak to? This question sits at the heart of co-parenting after separation, and our guest Marcy Shaoul brings both personal experience and professional expertise to this challenging terrain.
Marcie Shaoul
Marcie is a trailblazer in co-parenting. She’s the founder of the award-winning The Co-Parent Way and author of The Co-Parenting Method: Six Steps to Raise Happy Kids After Separation and Divorce (Penguin, 2025). In 2016, she launched the UK’s first dedicated co-parent coaching practice, bringing this vital support to separating families across the country.
A certified coach known for her clear, compassionate, and results-driven style, Marcie has helped thousands of separating parents learn how to co-parent with confidence. She developed The Co-Parenting Method, a step-by-step approach that transforms post-separation communication—and she now offers it both in-person and as an accessible online course.
Before launching her coaching career, Marcie led high-level communications teams in the international civil service, advising senior officials and diplomats at Foreign Minister level. She has worked with Buckingham Palace on a high-profile communications initiative for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and alongside global changemakers such as Desmond Tutu, Sonia Gandhi, and Terry Waite.
Where it’s safe to do so, every child of separation has a right to parents who can still be parents - together.
