A customized GPT designed to help you create a values-based statement to anchor your parenting during—and after—divorce.
Want to parent
with more intention—
even when things get hard?
Start with one small shift that makes a big difference.
Divorce doesn’t have to equal devastation. While it may change the shape of your family, how you move through this transition—and the intentions you set—can shape everything that comes next.
That’s where this short exercise comes in.
What’s a Guiding Principle
—and why does it matter?
A Guiding Principle is a one- to two-sentence statement that reflects your highest values as a parent. It’s like your co-parenting North Star—a steady reminder of what matters most, especially when emotions run high or the path ahead feels messy.
Instead of focusing on differences or past conflict, a Guiding Principle brings you back to the bigger picture: raising happy, secure, and resilient kids.
You can do this exercise on your own or together with your co-parent. Either way, it’s a powerful way to shift from reaction mode to purposeful parenting.

I believe – divorce doesn’t make you a bad parent. It makes you a parent going through a bad time.
And yet, no matter how intelligent, accomplished, successful, or self-enlightened you are, the guilt and responsibility you feel over changing your children’s lives forever is so incredibly HEAVY. And when that guilt kicks in, it can be really hard NOT to feel like a bad parent.
