It's Not About Us (ePub)

Do You Want to Create a Healthy Co-parenting Relationship?

If you'd told Darlene Taylor that she'd pack her bags after a rocky divorce to move across the country at the request of her ex-husband, she would've laughed in your face and asked to sip whatever you were drinking. But that's exactly what happened-and it changed the course of her family.

Foreword by Ex-husband Mick Cronin, Head Coach of the UCLA Bruins:

"Nobody plans to parent with an ex. I wasn't certain it would work at first. But the thought of negatively affecting our daughter devastated me. It motivated me to do all I could do."

Buckle up. You're about to find out what happened when Taylor made a radical decision for her family after divorce-and what she learned along the way.

Part memoir, part survival guide, It's Not About Us shares with hilarious honesty her imperfect attempts at forging a new path for her family. Taylor provides 15 nuggets of co-parenting wisdom, including:

• When to make decisions solo or consult your ex
• The worst thing children of divorce beg you not to do
• How family and friends can help
• The surprising lesson from a boyfriend's ex-wife
• The most impactful decision you can make

Executive producer Eric Pankowski, CBS, Carpool Karaoke:

"Wow. Profound, funny, and real! It's as if Taylor peered into my journey with my ex and kids and articulated every fear and challenge. It's a roadmap to reach the destination, at times heartbreaking, always inspirational and life-affirming."

Staying on the high road after divorce was not easy for Taylor. It won't be for you, either.

But Taylor's promise is to share her story honestly. She shows you the path she took to creating a healthy co-parenting relationship for her daughter.

Actor/Producer Gina Torres:

"When Happily Ever After goes up in smoke, how do you keep the love alive for your kids? A must-read for couples going through divorce with children. Taylor brings her life-saving humor, insight as a life coach and social worker, and irrepressible optimism to a very painful time. She reminds us that children deserve to be the beneficiaries of a successful relationship rooted in respect and communication."
