  • Incredibly important for anyone entering a blended family, or looking to improve their blend

    I came to this podcast after starting a relationship with a man who had kids from a previous marriage. (First time.) I am profoundly grateful for David and Lori and their insight. While I am no stranger to children generally speaking, and enjoy the company of children, it’s a whole different experience as a (potential) stepmom.

  • Your not alone

    We put our blend under one roof and things change negatively. I thought I made a terrible decision. I thought my partner was not who I was supposed to be with. I was stressed and angry about the messes and feeling like a maid. I thought it was just us and we weren’t ok. This podcast made me feel validated in my feelings it. The podcast saved my relationship and my view on my whole blend. I listen daily and look forward to new episodes!!

  • I don’t feel alone

    I love listening to this podcast because it makes me feel like there are others out there who understand what I’m going through… and sometimes it also makes me thankful for my blend because some others have it so much worse!
