Скачать или смотреть Holiday Coparenting After Divorce: Reducing Stress for All Kids, Including Those With Special Needs

The holidays can be stressful for any divorced or separated parent—and even more so when your child has special needs. In this episode of the Just Separated Podcast, we explore both sides. Whether you’re parenting a neurotypical child or a child with complex needs, this conversation will help you lower stress, prepare your kids emotionally, and create moments of calm during a season that often feels overwhelming.

I’m joined by Mary Ann Hughes, founder of Special Family Transitions and a mother of two sons on the autism spectrum. Mary Ann supports families navigating divorce and co-parenting challenges, helping parents advocate for their children’s unique needs while reducing conflict, emotional strain, and expense.

Together, we discuss practical, compassionate strategies for getting through the holidays, including:

• Why holiday anxiety increases for many kids
• How to prepare your child with simple visual schedules
• The “one fun activity a day” approach
• What to do when parenting styles differ between homes
• How to help kids make meaning during the holidays
• Where to find true support—no matter your circumstances

This episode is for you if you want a calmer, more connected holiday season for your children and yourself.
