“Pay attention some really helpful tools in this class. You get a better understanding of how our brain and mind work.” December 2018

“I appreciate that this class is organized in a straightforward, practical manner and uses mixed format media and anecdotes, and although little of the information was new to me and I was court ordered to take it, I was able to stay engaged and learn new ways to think about my own core goals, reactive states and behavior.” December 2018

“This class made me feel hopeful and it made me feel less alone to know that other parents feel some of the same feelings that I feel.” December 2018

These things are extremely helpful to help me co parent better.”  November 2018

“I came in thinking that I would just tick this class off of my list to get more time with my children and “beat my ex” who I believe is not participating in co-parenting work. To my great surprise, I learned a lot and now feel equipped to respond to my ex with love and compassion (even if I disagree with him) and no longer need to feel anxious. I am greatly calmed by this course and already feel more powerful and less anxious.” November 2018

“I found this class very helpful, during an extremely difficult time of separation. A lot of the information was already known, but it’s so easy to forget when you are in a space of fear and anger, as most people are when it comes to their children. This class was very easy to navigate through online, and I love that I can re-do the platform as many times as I need to. Although in person classes were my first choice, I loved the convenience of online, so I could do the lessons while my daughter is sleeping. Overall, very good class.” November 2018

“This class is very helpful to me and I will recommend it to my family or friends that is or will experience trouble with their relationship and deal the right ways to deal with their children. I’ve learned in so many areas, how to look, react to my ex husband differently and to value the time that I have with my son right now.” October 2018

“I am grateful to Ms. Holleron for how she has compiled years of work, research and her personal experiences into a positive course of action for conflicting parents. I have always felt I followed the road of compassion, but years of enduring anger from my ex, had me very defensive still. She has effectively reminded me how to diffuse my reactive state. Ironically, my ex husband, who either refused therapy, or would resist any self reflection if involved in therapy, responded well to the course. He told our daughter he wished he had been forced to take the course eight years ago. That of course, would have helped all of us a lot sooner. But, better late than never! Thank you, Ms. Holleron, for all of your help.” October 2018

“This class is very helpful to me and I will recommend it to my family or friends that is or will experience trouble with their relationship and deal the right ways to deal with their children. I’ve learned in so many areas, how to look, react to my ex husband differently and to value the time that I have with my son right now.” October 2018

“You are not alone. Lots of what you’re feeling is perfectly normal and lots of other people are facing and dealing with the same problems. And, they’re dealing with it a lot better than I was before taking this course. My only regret is that no one made me take this course 8 years ago, when my wife of 26 years filed for divorce and we suddenly our 5 year old daughter was in the middle. I made so many mistakes. I really believe I will do much better in the future. Thank you Alisa. If you were closer, I’d give you a great big hug! (With your permission, of course!)” October 2018

“Thank you so much for this!!! I wasn’t expecting to learn much truthfully, but was I wrong. Everything from the reading segments to the videos… I learned so much about myself and how to better myself for the better of my children. I really think a lot of this info can help, even if you don’t have kids. VERY informative. :)” October 2018

“The instructor really understands that we cannot control our co-parent, we can only control ourselves and how we deal with the situation. She focuses on finding the good, embracing our feelings, but controlling our reactions. This is a very helpful class for anyone going through a difficult divorce or co-parenting situation.” October 2018

“You might be the best mom, dad, co-parent…. you may not be divorced, but you accepted that divorce is not an option, this class will definitely help you gain tools to cope.  I am no expert in marriage counseling, I have shared my learning of my divorce with parents who have fought and considered divorce for small reasons… i am going to recommend this class to them… online version at least. Thanks Alisa! This is a good primer.” October 2018

“This class helps you become more open minded about getting along with the other parent for your child.” August 2018

“This class breaks past the barriers of trying to “teach” or “train” the participant to have better understanding in order to elicit a better response and goes deep to the emotional roots of how we feel and how we are wired as humans. I find that it shows compassion and empathy for the parent on either side of any issue which is fitting due to the emphasis on those exact traits.” August 2018

“I was referred to this class from my attorney’s office, as the court ordered both parties to take co parenting classes. At first I was a little upset about it but throughout this class I realized that there are things that are helpful and beneficial to ME and I never thought that would be the case! I love how Alisa used many examples to help understand things better, and I also love how there were some writing exercises that make you think about your own situation and how you can apply it to the topics being taught. I also enjoyed how there was some reading portions, but also some videos so you can listen while folding the laundry etc!” August 2018

“This class is very helpful in the sense that it caused me to sort of sit back and think about my situation in a much more positive way, and gave me some tools I can use to help make things easier for not just my child, but for myself as well.” June 2018

“First, the topics that are covered made me feel like the issues or triggers I’ve experienced as a co-parent are “normal” and I’m not alone. Secondly, I benefitted from realizing how to grow my own power and know, even as just one of the parents, that I can still positively impact my children.” June 2018

“This class helped me understand that my main goal was to raise healthy happy children. My reactions and attitude are seen and heard. I so desperately want to be the example of joy and gratitude. I know that compassion is not weakness.” May 2018

I would highly recommend it!” May 2018

“I found that this class did a good job of helping the participant focus on things within their own control. We can focus on our own actions, responses, feelings and attitudes and realize that through our own positivity we can benefit the lives of our children. We can also realize that we can never control what our co-parents do but we can empathize with them and ultimately by doing this we gain peace and understanding within ourselves.” April 2018

“I think it’s very helpful to look at the situation from the perspective of the child. Also, learning about the reactive state helped me to recognize how to manage my thoughts, feelings and reactions.” April 2018

“Alisa’s class was extremely helpful. I, personally, have been very anxious about my pending mediation and court dates. I have even felt powerless at times in dealing with my ex especially since she has been able to control significantly my ability to see my daughter. But in taking Alisa’s class I have been able to acquire invaluable learning tools to see the triggers that make me upset and even to understand how to express compassion and empathy to my daughter’s mother. This recognition has given me a better perspective of what I need to do in order to become more attuned with my daughter and to create the happiness that I want her to have for her life.” April 2018

“Very informative and helpful with dealing with bad situations and hostile relationships.” March 2018

“The best and most helpful outcome of this class for me was that I felt connected, could relate to my situation and it re-inforced my attitude of positive thinking – take in the good. The topic of compassion was really good and I learnt how I need to channel the positive energy and prevent emotional reactive states by using the space meaningfully.” March 2018

“Lots of great insights to be absorbed in this course. Simple steps, if not always easy, that can help anyone in tough divorce situations and most importantly to help spare kids unnecessary anguish that can come from adult conflict.” March 2018
