I honestly can handle what happens to me since my childhood was a nightmare... But how can I keep my son emotionally healthy during this scenario?

I don't want him to be unhappy and lost emotionally.

It's obviously gonna be hard to co-parent and for him to be torn between two homes but I want him to be better than I could ever be and happy.

Any tips from people that went through this?

I'm in uncharted territory.

Dear GSC2019,

You sound like a wonderful parent. People like you inspire me. I wish I had some tips for you but I am not a parent myself so I don't know what to say that would be really helpful. Hopefully others here will prove more helpful to you.

Sincerely yours, Yao Wen

I think as long as you're civil with your ex and you guys don't complain about one another to your son (in the future, anyway, given that he's still a toddler), it will be OK. I had friends with divorced parents when I was growing up and plenty of them seemed to enjoy essentially having 2 homes. The only ones who seemed unhappy were the ones whose parents hated each other.
