Rebuilding your life while they build theirs.
You're starting over. They're heading out. Neither of you has to do it alone.
Coaching for parents raising a teen toward high school and the college years while their own life is being rebuilt: divorce, co-parenting, dating again, remarrying and blending families.
You're in the right place if...
Everything is changing at once, and your kids are watching how you handle it.
Two households, one child, and decisions that keep getting bigger: high school, activities, money, college.
You want a life of your own again, without it costing your kids anything.
The Launch-Year Starter
The senior-year essentials across two households: the dates that matter, what you and your co-parent need to coordinate, and where to begin.
I lost both of my parents in 2016 and filed for divorce the next spring, with a 6-year-old and an 11-year-old at home.
I spent the next years learning how to co-parent with dignity, how to love again, and how to blend a family. Through all of it, I kept doing what I've done for 35 years: guiding families toward college and the future. I built Higher Ground for the parent living both roads at once.
