On last night’s “Co-Parenting Matters” show on BlogTalk Radio, we discussed co-parenting during the holidays–parenting time, coping, and finances. We were joined by Brooke Randolph, licensed mental health counselor and parenting coordinator; and Patricia Stallworth, CFP, CDFA,  president of MindingYourMoney and PS Worth.

You can listen to a podcast of the show here, and you can get Patricia’s 5-step plan for sharing the joys of the holidays without breaking the bank at “Tis the Season to Spend…Or Not” at WeParent.com.
