    Sep 4 2026
    On this episode of Uncoupled & Unfiltered, I sit down with Sol Kennedy — Founder of Best Interest, the AI co-parenting app that WIRED called "lifesaving" for high-conflict families. Dr. Ramani was brought in to back the science behind it — and if that name means anything to you, you already know this app carries real clinical weight.This is not just another co-parenting app. This one was built differently — designed to defuse conflict, protect your well-being, and help you respond instead of react. And if you've ever white-knuckled your way through the 20th email from your co-parent in a single day, you know exactly why that matters.Because when you're not triggered, when you're not emotionally charged — you show up better. As a parent. In court. In your life.Best Interest keeps your side of the street clean, no matter what's happening on theirs.Key Topics Covered:The origin story of Best Interest — what it is, how it came to be, and why it needed to existWhat sets it apart from every other co-parenting app on the market — and the gaps they all missedDr. Ramani - why her, why it matters, and why it made a differencePaper trail protection — how Best Interest documents everything so you're never caught without receiptsHow it safeguards your mental well-being and kills the emotional triggers — the late-night heart palpitations, the anxiety spiral before you even open the message — you know exactly what I'm talking aboutStaying locked into your co-parenting plan and how Best Interest helps you ensure you stay within the lanesThe real best starting place for co-parenting — and spoiler: it's not pretending you're all getting along and you put children’s best interest firstWhat's next for Best Interest and how you can start using it today“Mediation oftentimes is the right way to do it. Even if you don't get exactly what you want, it does help you move on to the next chapter quicker.” - Sol KennedyAbout Our Guest: Sol KennedySol Kennedy is the founder of BestInterest, the AI-powered co-parenting app hailed by WIRED as a "lifesaving" solution for high-conflict families. A former Googler and serial entrepreneur, Sol built the app by pairing hard-won lessons from his own divorce with technology designed to shift parents from reactive to responsive communication. Working alongside experts like Dr. Ramani Durvasula, he's brought real credibility to the science behind the tools. The result: safety, sanity, and a clear focus on what matters most—the kids.Who This Episode Is For:You are in a high-conflict co-parenting situation, and every communication with your ex feels like walking into a minefieldYou are tired of being triggered, emotionally hijacked, and losing sleep over the next message that's coming inYou have been to court or are headed there and need to know your documentation is airtightYou are struggling to hold the line on your co-parenting plan while your ex plays by their own rulesYou are done reacting and ready to start responding — like a strategist, not a victimConnect with Sol Kennedy:Website: https://bestinterest.app Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bestinterest.app Connect with Ksenia Muench:Website: https://www.thriveagaindivorcecoaching.com/ Website: https://www.highconflictplaybook.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thriveagaindivorcecoaching/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kvmuench/ Substack: https://substack.com/@thriveagaindc Email: ksenia@thriveagaindivorcecoaching.com 🎧 Listen, Subscribe & ShareFollow Uncoupled and Unfiltered on Spotify, Prime, and Apple Podcasts for weekly conversations about divorce, relationships, dating, and self-discovery.
