The Curious Storyteller: How Creativity Boundaries and AI Helped One Dad Co Parent with More Peace

When Co-Parenting Keeps You on Edge: Finding Peace After Divorce with SolI sat down with Sol for a deeply honest conversation about divorce, co-parenting, healing, and what it takes to stop living in constant reaction mode.In this episode, I explore what life can feel like after a relationship ends, especially when you still have to stay connected as parents. Sal shares how overwhelm, conflict, and self-doubt shaped his early days after divorce, and how he slowly began to rebuild trust in himself. Along the way, we talk about boundaries, isolation, emotional triggers, and the quiet inner work that can change how you show up for your kids and for yourself.What struck me most is how Sol turned a painful personal experience into something practical for other co-parents. I’m sharing how that idea took shape, why emotional distance can matter so much in high-conflict communication, and what many people miss about the real weight of co-parenting.If you’re parenting through separation, supporting someone who is, or trying to understand how healing and neurodivergent traits can intersect with stress, this conversation will give you a lot to think about.About the GuestSol is a creative entrepreneur and co-parent who built Best Interest, an app designed to help reduce conflict in co-parent communication using AI-supported message review.Timestamps0:02 - I welcome Sol and we begin before the divorce2:38 - Sol reflects on having a brain that resists neat labels4:19 - The moment he knew he couldn’t keep living this way8:01 - Parenting young kids through divorce and COVID10:01 - How creativity helped protect both him and his children14:21 - What people don’t understand about co-parenting15:46 - The isolation of high-conflict co-parenting22:12 - The grounding practice that changed his healing27:58 - How lived experience became the Best Interest app36:19 - What feels most different about who he is now41:46 - What Sal hopes others take from his storyIf this episode speaks to you, listen through to the end and share it with someone who needs a little more support around divorce, co-parenting, healing, or neurodivergence.#CoParenting #DivorceHealing #NeurodivergentSupport #ParentingAfterDivorce #MentalHealthHosted by Reid Miles.Conversations unfold naturally — no scripts, no rush.🎧 Subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts🌐 More about the show and past episodes: https://podcast.ausha.co/neurodivergantconnection-thecuriousstroyteller📩 Guest inquiries & media: Reid@AspergersStudio.comHosted on Ausha.
