Writing The Collaborative Co-Parent has truly been a journey—a journey toward healthier collaborative co-parenting relationships. Through reflecting on the good and bad experiences that I, along with many clients and friends, have faced, I have accomplished something I deeply desired: to share my knowledge and experiences in this co-parenting guide with those who need it most. I am incredibly thankful to my clients and the individuals who shared their stories with me; they have taught me just as much as I have guided them. Working with so many strong, resilient people has equipped me with valuable insights to provide my readers with everyday examples of what works and doesn’t work in navigating the co-parenting world. This perspective, drawn from my own lived experiences as well as the challenges faced by those I have supported, has shaped the content of this book. Most importantly, I am grateful to you, the reader, for trusting me and being open to embarking on your own co-parenting journey. Your children will forever appreciate your efforts in creating a more stable, secure, and rewarding future. - Gabriella Pomare
