Blended Life - A Blended Family Podcast: Recent Episodes
Blended Life
A blended family is such an important topic because it’s dealing with so many lives, not just that of you and your spouse. You have your kids and your spouses kids of course, but you also have the other sets of parents to contend with (if there is shared custody). With so many cooks in the kitchen, it can make sanity hard to come by on some days. We can lose our way in the midst of chaos, jealousy, insecurity, frustration, anger, confusion, miscommunication, and power struggles. This podcast is dedicated to lessons my husband and I have learned from previously being married, divorced, parenting, co-parenting, step-parenting, blending a family, re-marrying, surviving daddy issues (me not him lol), going through years of therapy (again, me not him ha), having a relationship with God, listening to and absorbing wisdom from others, and having some of the best friends anyone could hope for! It is our hope that this offers all who take the time to read what we have to say, a perspective that makes for consideration or just some good-old-fashioned food-for-thought. If we can save one person, or couple, from any of our many mistakes, it would mean more than any treasure ever could.
Step Parenting Red Flags
On this episode of Blended Life, we break down three of our listener's step parenting experiences and give them our perspective on how to move forward. From different parenting styles to defining your role and taking responsibility for your choices in what you allow and take on, we push and challenge these three individuals (and hopefully you too) to recognize the red flags of step parenting and do something about it! We hope this discussion inspires you to feel empowered and to seek out support if you need it. Step parenting is hard and often renders its participants powerless, frustrated and confused; hopefully we've spoken into this enough this episode to get you thinking differently. This is our final episode of 2023, and so, we wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. May you be blessed; we want the best for every blended family out there. We'll see you all on the flip side in 2024! Enjoy!

Two Homes, One Love: Navigating the Coparenting Journey
On this episode of Blended Life, we answer three of our listeners questions:
-
How do you deal with secrets in a blended family when one household keeps things from the other? What about dealing with the stress of knowing information as the step parent that both bio parents are keeping from their children?
-
How do you as the new spouse get to be okay with your husband's ex being absolutely cruel to him when he won't even try your advice to stop it?
-
How do you handle it when your partner agrees to have scheduled time together with you and then allows their child to hijack that time to connect?
These are big topics that center all around the need to be understood. We hope you enjoy this episode! Comment below and let us know one thing you took away from our perspectives addressing these issues.

Holiday Boundaries and Fairness in a Blended Family

Entitlement In Blended Families
On this episode of Blended Life we discuss all things entitlement in blended families. Let us tell you, there's a lot going on. From what we can tell, every relationship in our blended families is riddled with entitlement issues. The problem with entitlement is that it feels unsafe, creates anxiety and sets blended families up for upset and disappointment across the board. We uncover what we believe are some things we SHOULD be entitled to as well as what we need to lay down and let go of. You will also learn how to help break not only yourself free from entitlement, but also how to teach others around you to do the same. Enjoy!

The Purpose
Why is talking about blended families and life in general important? Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a blended family many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families.

Blended Family Advice
On this episode of Blended Life we break down our top pieces of advice and words of wisdom we wish we would have been told when blending our family. We discuss what we feel it takes to make it through the daily grind and business of blended family life to the other side where the house is empty of kids and you are left to enjoy married life alone, maybe for the first time since coming together. You can make it, you can be at peace, you can succeed in your blended family (whatever that may look like for you). We'd also love to know advice you'd give to people in blended families, so please feel free to comment or send your thoughts in. Enjoy!

Blended Family Boundaries are the scaffolding of how we relate to one another in our home and in our various relationships. Boundaries can be used for good when they protect well-being, or for bad when they are used to control others. On this episode of Blended Life we discuss what boundaries are, their purpose, how to create them and the consequences of not doing so (or having flimsy boundaries). Enjoy!

Letting go of offense in your blended family is necessary if you want to experience unity in your blended life. On this episode of Blended Life we talk about being offended and what you can do about it. Are you even part of a blended family if you aren't offended at some point?! Offense comes at us in all directions; from our spouse, coparent, child, step child, extended family, friends, church leaders, etc. Even though you may not be able to escape the resentment or annoyance as the result of a perceived insult, you can choose what do with it once you have become offended.

Put liars in their place so you can focus on what is most important, your family unit.

Since we can't control our exes, or their new spouses, we must deal with the liars in our lives from the inside out.

Honoring Relationships In Your Blended Family For Your Good is key to having inner peace. How you show up in relationships will determine how that relationship will affect your well-being. Honoring relationships isn't just about the other person, but about getting what you want for yourself in your blended family life. So often we don't see that we are on the same side, with the same goals. Instead, we treat the other person like the enemy they aren't, which says way more about you than them. Honoring your relationships in your blended family life will have you leveling up like you never have before; something to be proud of! Enjoy!

Acceptance In Your Blended Family is something that everyone wants. We all want acceptance for our ideologies, our ideas, our opinions, our parenting style, our kids, etc. Yet, when it comes to accepting everyone else in the same fashion, well, things tend to get more than a little sticky. Suddenly #acceptance seems more like swallowing sand, or a damnation to hell rather than something positively experienced and even enjoyed within the home. How can we reconcile what we want for ourselves, yet aren't willing to fully give in return?! It all starts with shifting how you view acceptance, and that, my friends, is what this episode is all about. Enjoy!

Learn How To Create Connection In Your Blended Family. In this episode as we discuss the importance of connection and how you can help your children create it so that everyone can thrive in the home. Blended family life is all about creating connection so that everyone feels bonded and thus blended. We discuss the importance of teaching and modeling connection to all your children in your blended family and also how do so. Without connection, children feel unsafe in their blended family. Without connection, step parents feel like outsiders in their blended family. Without connection, bio parents feel like failures in their blended family. Connection is everything, so it is of the upmost importance that parents teach their children how to connect with their step parent and step siblings so they are able to relax in their blended family life. This may be the most important thing a bio parent can do to broker a connection between their spouse and child. If you are feeling disconnected in your blended family life, this episode is for you!

Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families.

How to respond when you don't know what to say in your blended family life. On this episode we discuss how to respond to everyone who touches your blended family when you don't know what to say. Sometimes there's simply no GOOD words that come to mind, and you feel at a loss when being confronted by difficult or triggering people. No worries though, we've got your back because we've had a lot of practice not knowing what to say and learning how to respond through trial and much, much error lol! You do not have to respond in ways that don't prove fruitful, you can respond meaningfully, respectfully and with ease no matter what!

How to find peace amongst the chaos in your blended family. On this episode of Blended Life we discuss how you can find peace amongst the chaos in your blended family life. With so many moving parts, such as the kids, the exes, co-parenting, your marriage, different parenting styles in the home, etc., it can seem that being able to find peace in the storm of blended family life is unrealistic. We are here to share with you hope, that no matter what you are dealing with, you have the power to decide what you react to, how you react to it, what you engage in and what you don't; you have more power that you think regardless of the chaos that surrounds you! Your experience in your blended family is YOURS to determine.

The Purpose
Why is talking about blended families and life in general important? Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a blended family many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families.

Blending two homes into one can be extremely difficult!

On this episode of #BlendedLife we discuss how to set your child up for their #financialfuture long before they are out in the world on their own. Eric talks all things #credit and how you can easily put your kids on the path for success! How to add your kids to a credit card, build your kids credit score and manage their credit history. There’s so much to consider and be mindful about when it comes to preparing the next generation to have the ability to be set up for a life they want and have the things they desire. After breaking all that down, we disclose a NEW way to get connected to us through a shared reading opportunity. Starting September 1, you can read along with Julie every week for five weeks a very cool book, “Grace-Filled Step Parenting” by Laurie Polich Short. Julie will go live each week for a discussion of previous weeks reading. This should be tons of fun and a way for us all to connect and grow on a whole new level. We end this episode addressing a follower’s concerns about how a bio mom’s drama and lack of responsibility makes her want to run. It’s been 8 long years and her boyfriend STILL isn’t divorced. Enjoy!

On this episode we discuss marriage counseling and therapy. What are the pros and the cons of having a third party present while you hash out your issues? Eric gives some good perspective on why men have a hard time with it and what you can do to avoid having your partner shut down or quit going. We also talk about why it gets harder and things seem worse before they getting better. Both of us give our real life experiences of our times in therapy/counseling together and in our previous marriages. Julie explains how counseling/therapy is different from life coaching. Finally, we chat about when things in your marriage and in your blended family seem like too much and you begin to wonder if you made the right decision. If that is you, you’re not alone! We give you some wise words to help get you over that hump! Enjoy!

On this episode we talk about BLOCKED communication in three forms: children being blocked from talking about one parent to the other, significant others who are blocked from hearing/listening to their partner when they are voicing concerns or giving advice about their children, and co-parents blocked from being able to come to an understanding of fundamentally different values involving the children. There’s consequences when you put a gag order on your children. There’s frustration and hurt when you’re seeming being passed over by your significant other, especially when the ex isn’t. There’s fear created when your ex acts looser with COVID related restrictions than you. We discuss different perspectives on each topic and give suggestions on how you can get unstuck in each situation. The big takeaways are to keep it all about what is in the best interest of the kids, find gratitude and lead with empathy. Having a blended family means thinking outside the box and stretching your opinions and perceptions beyond your limited understanding; we hope we can stretch you just a bit.

On this episode we continue to interview Lisa, co-host of the Chick Crew (go check them out on Instagram and YouTube) a home and life skills improvement show, about her blended family life experiences. She opens up about a pretty major family trauma that she, as a step parent, had to confront with her step son. Cops are definitely involved. This story will really allow your heart to swell when you hear how she showed up and stepped up as a step mom! She’s truly inspiring. When you think you’re alone in dealing with some pretty tough stuff, Lisa will make you feel less so through her real life experiences. She even discusses having a grandchild now, and how that is going as her bio daughter has moved back home and the step parent/grandparent shoe’s now on the other foot (her husbands). This is an episode you won’t want to miss! Enjoy!

On this episode of the Blended Life we are talking with Lisa, co-host of the #ChickCrew, a YouTube home improvement series, and a #blendedfamily member since childhood. She’s a step child, bio mom and #stepmom. All this life experience has given her some pretty amazing perspective on how to navigate the tough parts of step parenting while keeping an intact and connected marriage. You’ll want to take note of all the nuggets of advice she gives us about dealing with teenagers and stepping up as a step parent. Her story and how she’s chosen to parent is pretty inspiring and thought provoking. This is an episode you won’t want to miss! Enjoy!

On this episode we answer two different step mom’s concerns surrounding their step children, spouses and exes. When your step children are disrespectful, how can you show up differently and not makes things worse by acting a fool? We give some perspective about this. Reactions matter! It can be especially straining on a marriage when you’re negatively reacting to someone else’s child. We talk about parent alienation surrounding child support; oh yes, the two can be linked and create a really devastating situation. Kids need both parents; it’s in their best interest if both parents are willing, capable and safe. Finally we address how you deal with bio mom harassing you, the step mom, on all the different platforms. When you’ve done all thing things; block, delete and ignore…and she still doesn’t stop, what is to be done? Enjoy!

On this episode we discuss living separately together; when two bio families live under the same roof doing their own thing with the goal to blend. We give advice and perspective when it comes to joining two individuals together with their own kids in tow. It can be difficult to meld plans, schedules, and activities when both parties are on different pages and used to doing their own stuff. We talk about how things changed for us after we got married and why the first year of our marriage was the most challenging of all the years we’ve been together. Finally we address how to deal with an ex/coparent who doesn’t respect personal boundaries. How to enforce respect over your privacy. Enjoy!

On this episode we discuss how do deal with jealousy issues amongst the different sets of children in the blended family home. Jealousy struggles often spill over onto other people in the home.

What should a step mom or step dad do when they are feeling under appreciated and disliked? We give some suggestions and things to consider. Finally, we chat about our different perspectives on children calling their step parents “Mom” or “Dad”; you may be surprised at what we have to say. Enjoy!

On this episode we dive into dealing with only children; the struggle is REAL! Having a child who’s an only child in one home and then a step sibling in the other creates a difficult dynamic to parent, coparent and step parent. Being an only child yourself and having to parent your children’s sibling rivalries can be down right overwhelming. You know what else can be overwhelming; difficult teenagers! We talk about how to deal with teens who lie and are two-faced trouble makers; being a step parent in that situation is down right hard! Speaking of hard, child support is no joke. Deciding how to utilize it in a way that honors the children it’s intended for can be dicey when different opinions of what that looks like in blended family life exist. We talk about a couple of different perspectives to consider. Enjoy!

On this episode we dive into kids acting out! We discuss what you can do to help your child or step child who is misbehaving, seeking negative attention or expressing themselves in disruptive ways. It is our moral obligation as parents and step parents to guide and teach all of the children home, to raise them up in the way which they should go. It is our moral obligation to put aside our own emotions and agendas so that we may always seek what is in their best interest, so that they may become the best possible versions of themselves. Julie discusses how she became a health and life coach and what that even means! She shares how you can get in contact with her and have your very own breakthrough life coaching session. You’ll want to listen to the whole thing, because a valuable marriage tip that can turn even the most distant #marriage around is shared; let’s face it blended life marriage is no joke! We hope you enjoy!

A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a blended family many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families.

- How does a step parent disconnect from a situation when they are very much in the mix between the exes? As a spouse do you be there solely for support and say nothing when you are dragged into fights, texts and when you disagree with their approach 💯 of the time?! 2. Is it normal for a step mom to get her feelings hurt when the step daughter does something with her bio mom that was planned for them to do together? Small stuff like taking her to get her ears pierced or to a concert. 3. Does it get better after court? If the bio parent doesn’t follow the court order, how can they be held accountable? 4. Is it wrong to try to get your step kid with you during school if the other bio parent in the other home leaves them with people and gives them free reign to do whatever they want (including having a boyfriend).

On this episode we will discuss: 1. How do you help your child get over trust issues and become comfortable with your new significant other? Childhood trauma can most definitely affect how they do and react to relationships of all kinds moving forward. 2. How to deal with your step kid not wanting anything to do with you; not acknowledging you in your own home. Should feeling awkward become something to accept? Attitude struggles are REAL! 3. A stepparents struggle to want to work on her relationship with her step son when she is so irritated with his behavior; we discuss how to move forward in that situation. 4. When you feel like the kids rule the roost and rule the family; always seeking your kids approval and permission when it comes to your relationship. How may that be harmful to everyone?

What IS a marriage in a blended family? How do you define it? What does it look like and mean? How much is shared? How much say does each other have? How is the line drawn between shared parenting of all children and the bio parent having the final say? How does “having the bio parent having the final say” VS “our home, we both have a say” work? OR how are they separate? Lines blur in blended families and that can get confusing and frustrating! When it comes to paying for things outside of child support and having extra shared costs between the two homes, is this a “bio parent has the final say” situation or a “marriage finance thing”? If you can’t talk openly and respectfully about each other’s children; is there hope for the marriage?!

When the new “girlfriend” of your ex comes in like a wrecking ball and changes everything about your co-parenting with her influence and boundaries, how should you handle it? How to deal when your kids are all over her social media and you’ve never even met her yet?! How to process your ex forging a relationship with your estranged father between him and your children? When you hear from your kids they have been seeing “grandpa” at Dad’s and you haven’t had any relationship with him for YEARS! How to deal with “Mommy/Daddy” said type of stuff with the kids? When your step kids are coming home from their other house and it’s always what “Mommy said or Mommy says”; do you correct incorrect information?, do you ban it?, do you ignore it?, do you set boundaries? If it’s happening in one home, you know it’s also happening in the other home with “Daddy says”. How might you address this if you don’t want to hear it, but also don’t want the kids making up stuff about your home to their other parent? Marriage and the name change; do it or not? Use your maiden name as part of the last name for the sake of the kids? Does changing your name make you feel separated even further from you children? Is it offensive to want to keep your shared name with your children? What issues may arise when you make the decision to have a different last name than your children?

How to deal with being on the outside of issues and decisions as the step parent; especially when it will affect you and your kids? How does a couple navigate one partner being accepting of the the other partners kid and spending alone time with them while the other partner doesn’t spend alone time with you and your kids, unless he has his kid? What to do when your step child is causing a wedge in your relationship by they way they behave. We will discuss how boundaries actually PROTECT relationships and are part of loving someone. When you are constantly on edge about both your child and your significant other; the anxiety that being caught between the two brings about. Being the the middle of two people you love but who don’t embrace one another is HARD.

Ways to communicate and keep each other (you and your spouse) in the loop when it comes to the kids, their schedules and happenings between the two homes. Is being in a group text with the ex a good idea? Should schedule changes be discussed in house before being agreed to with the other? How should you address your spouse when they forget to inform you of things concerning their children on a regular basis? When your ex refuses to acknowledge or engage in seeking medical help for your child; how can you make them come around and take things as seriously as is deserved? When your ex frames medication as “bad” to your child; how to handle that?! A true medical condition versus an undisciplined child? When your partner accuses you of being a bad parent and can’t deal with your child’s outbursts, and disagrees with how you handle misbehavior, can a blended family really work out under those conditions? How to say no to the expectation of watching your step child in the absence of both parents when you feel it is unsafe? How to deal with the frustration of allowing the ex to skip out on their responsibilities and not hold them accountable for their actions or lack of.

Jealousy that exists of the step parent and the relationship his or her significant other has with their bio kid; how to help put that jealousy to bed. Feeling like you have a gag order when the kids are around; feeling like you have to walk on egg shells until they leave to go to their other parents house; something to change or something to accept? Is it fair to combine finances after marriage if only one person has kids in the home? Paying the ex more than court ordered child support when asked; is that reasonable? What boundaries should be set when you have a new family with financial goals that are or could be affected by this?

Our Purpose: Why is talking about blended families and life in general important? Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life

Is it strange that the step mom hasn’t met the bio mom after two years? Why might the bio mom not want to meet the person who is caring for her child half the time? Should this be addressed or left alone? How to manage the inevitable inequality in the home when the bio parent allows their own child to get away with so much and hammers down on their step kids instead? How to handle it when said child becomes disruptive and a bully to the other kids in the home. Let’s talk about the fact that all our children are half their other parent. Should that be an excuse for bad behavior in your home? Anyone else do a double-take when your kid acts, speaks or give the same facial expressions as your ex?! When your step kids don’t listen to you the first (or even the second) time; is the a lack of respect or a different parenting style in the home situation? How should this be handled as a step parent? How to deal with parent alienation when your own bio child is buying into and creating the drama in your blended family? How can you allow yourself to enjoy your new spouse and step children and be hurt by your own kid?

Question from a listener: “The #ex wants to meet me and I don’t think it’s necessary. My boyfriend thinks it will get her off his back since her reasoning is “she wants to know who her child is spending so much time with”, but I think we all know why she wants to meet me, to size me up. What are your thoughts? Should we meet?” Question from a listener: “I am wondering if you can share some more insight on the #insecurities between your spouse and their ex. My spouse feels that it is important for everyone to open, and get along. I feel that all of it is lacking boundaries and lacks respecting our relationship and just makes me feel insecure. This is one of our biggest obstacles. We can't agree on things and he thinks I'm being very stern and unnecessary and I think that he needs to put boundaries in place, because the line of old relationship and new relationship is kind of blurry. What are your thoughts?” Question: How to handle when your step child is jealous of you and your #relationship with their parent. What can you do to help them through and support your spouse in the process? Question: “My boyfriend’s daughter is coming over this weekend to stay the night for one night and I fear that he will just allow her to come sleep in our bedroom again (against my permission and will) and I refuse to allow this to continue any longer. How would you handle this? How do I bring it up to him before she comes over? It obviously needs to be discussed and handled before then.”

Do you ever truly trust the #stepparent in the home? Do you trust their judgement or do you feel like you need to leave them with a ton of direction? Do you micromanage your partner when it comes to your kids?! If so, how’s that working out?
Let’s talk about gifting your ex during the holidays, birthdays, special occasions, etc. What about when the gifts are from the “kids” verses when they are from you? How does either impact your current relationship? Is it appropriate?
When the ex is chit chatty (not about the kids or #custody) and wants help in their lives with things like fixing cars, setting up computers, fixing household issues; how much is too much? How do you shut it down if you find it’s causing problems in your marriage or you begin to feel taken advantage of. What exactly is to much?!
When your ex says it's dating and introducing potential life partners to your kids is their business and you (as the other bio parent) should not bother or involve yourself. How quickly is it appropriate for someone to enter the children's lives and at what level? What if there’s concerns your children are being exposed to these #relationships very rapidly and it's emotionally confusing; what can you do?!

How to stop the fighting and arguing in your #marriage over how your spouse treats your child. How to protect your son or daughter when their feelings are hurt over the difference in treatment between them and their step siblings. When your spouse is more of a friend than a #parent to their child; should this be a red flag for having children of your own with them? Should #non-custodial parents help pay for big ticket items for their kids like cars, college, etc. when they are also paying child support? We discuss in more detail (specifics) dating when you have children already, and the progression from first introduction to living together. Mostly it’s about sleepovers, how to handle those?!

This episode is all about the dreaded EX! Listeners emailed us questions this week asking for insight about being the new partner/stepparent and still having a very present ex in the picture. The following are topics we cover on this podcast:
- Would you (Eric) marry the current version of your ex-wife, given how you work together now? Why or why not.
- When Eric alludes to the ex always being in his life (always will be in contact with her), what does that really mean? Is there any hope for the step parents out there who are biding their time until some sort of finish line? Is there a finish line?
- Social Media and the ex; what boundaries should there be, if any? Do you as the step parent have a right to privacy; to put your foot down when it comes to your spouse allowing the ex to “follow” them? What do you do if you disagree on this issue in your marriage; where do you go from there?
- Are you crazy for being uncomfortable or even insecure when the ex is always there? When they show up at family gatherings, when you are sitting between your spouse and his ex as they talk, when the MIL is giving the ex rides to these events...is it okay to have some expectations of boundaries or do you just need to accept it as the new comer

What are both sides of the coin when it comes to the decision to take a leap of faith or hold off when it comes to getting married and committing to your blended family legally? Different #parenting styles can work in a #blendedfamily home IF there’s mutual respect. How can you respect something you disagree with though? What does that do to your relationship with your step kid(s)? How to handle a child who doesn’t want to live with you anymore because the other home is “fun” and lax and yours is full of structure and consequence. What’s the bigger picture here? Should you give in or hold on? What is your role in fixing the #relationship between your spouse and adult children? How do you show up for both when you feel stuck in the middle?

As promised we are getting to the topics you wrote in about that we ran out of time for last week! Tonight’s topics are: 1. Swallowing sand - beware of this intimacy blocker in your marriage. 2. Real talk about fair #discipline in the home and the double standard of a step parent expecting one thing from their step kids and another from their bio kids. This can certainly move the #marriage swiftly from the honeymoon phase to always arguing. 3. What to say or do if your spouse doesn’t have your back when it comes to their ex. What are you supposed to do when neither yourself nor your relationship are being openly honored? 4. What to do when your in-laws still invites the #EX to family functions with complete disregard to what they put you through (and displays all the pictures of the past openly in their home)? We hope you’ll join us!

Our Purpose: Why is talking about blended families and life in general important? Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life

On this episode we put our heads together, and also asked our IG followers to chime in, about things to consider including in your #custodyagreement before going to #court. We were able to compile a comprehensive list of topics you may wish to address during mediation or the divorce process when it comes to your children. It’s important to first figure out your non-negotiables and your “I-don’t-cares” on each item before you begin negotiations. This way you will be confident in what boundaries you want to set with your ex and what things you are willing to give on because this is all about give and take; both parties need to feel represented, heard, and like they’ve won some of their wants. There’s no “right” answer when it comes to custody agreements, but what is the best interest of your children considering the abilities of each parent. It’s very important to have a clear baseline covering as much as you can agree upon, it’ll prevent future frustrations for all involved. Things change after #divorce when other people begin to enter the picture and want to have a say in the way your children are being raised, so getting it down on paper as early as you can protects the integrity of the natural parent’s wishes. We will provide this list on our website as soon as we get some free time to get it typed up. Feel free to comment below with anything you’d like to add to the list! We hope you enjoy!

Tonight we are discussing our audience’s questions, situations and concerns:
-
How to handle when your step child is acting out (in public). Ignore it? Also, how to deal with your step kid having a tough time accepting your blended family marriage and literally trying to come between you and your spouse.
-
How to deal when you feel your fiancé is being two faced when it comes to his EX? Makes you feel like he sides with your concerns and boundaries, but then is super caring when interacting with her...
-
How do you support your spouse when you don’t agree with how they parent?
-
How to tie on a knot to hold onto when you feel at the end of your rope with your spouse. How to push through when you feel dismissed. We hope you’ll join us!

On this episode we are discussing two very important blended family topics and two of our audience’s questions, situations and concerns:
- Setting your spouse up to be a good step parent. We give advice on what you can do and how you can behave as the bio parent to promote a successful relationship between your spouse and your child. We also discuss what the step parent’s point of view is, what they can do and how they feel when things are less than ideal with their step child.
- Letting go of control in your blended family. We discuss the importance of acceptance; it’s so necessary.
- Dealing with a step child who is an adult daughter-wife to their bio dad who knows no boundaries and has her hand in all the things.
- Dealing with resentment towards a step child and the realities of said step child not being biologically your partners. How to put aside your issues to move forward in the relationship with your significant other, or not.

Tonight we are discussing children’s education in a blended family. There’s so much to consider with kids distance learning in this pandemic in two homes. Keeping track of the supplies, getting all the information, and all the inconsistencies (such a internet) can make for rocky experiences for student, teacher and parent. Even when it’s not this distance learning stuff, there are so many things that teachers and principals should take into consideration when it comes to kids who split their time between to households; we’re going to talk about it. And what about having multiple kids in multiple school districts?! That can be a real challenge. We will break it all down in this episode.

Tonight on blended life we talk about all things bio parents. While it’s widely expressed how hard being a step parent is (and no doubt it’s tough), being a bio parent in this situation isn’t exactly a picnic either. Bioparents have their own set of inherent judgments, insecurities, struggles and feelings that step parents often would like to dismiss. We will discuss all of this. We all will talk about what you can do as a bio parent protect your kids. How to be there for your children without offending everyone else in the home. How to encourage your kids to accept new family dynamics as you blend your family. And if you are single as a bio parent, the pros and cons of dating someone else with kids. We hope you’ll tune in! If you haven’t already subscribed to our YouTube channel Blended Life, do is a favor and do so!! We would love to grow our community.

Tonight’s topic will be how to discuss each other’s children in your marriage without turning it into a fight. This can be a very touchy topic and a dicey road to go down with your spouse. It’s never easy to bring up your step kid to their bio parent (especially when you’re married to them) without the defense walls going up and the counter attacks lashing out. And while biting your tongue can be beneficial at time, too much of it will deteriorate connection and intimacy. Wish our marriage luck as we break this down on air.

Our Purpose: Why is talking about blended families and life in general important? Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life

Tonight we are discussing kids and their hygiene and cleaning habits. How can you get kids to care, to take notice and to be all on the same page with their self care and blended family household chores? It’s tough when the parents in the home have different expectations and parenting styles. Hopefully at the end of this podcast we will all feel inspired to start prioritizing cleanliness in our blended families effectively.

Tonight we discuss what being a strong leader in your blended family looks like and how to grow into one if you find yourself floundering. We will also discuss how to get back on track if you’ve let go of the reigns and fallen off the rails. There’s a lot of tough realities that come with leadership; it’s definitely not for the weak, but it is an oh-so necessary role nevertheless. 🎧 If you have a question, struggle, situation or helpful advice dealing with leadership in your blended family, we’d love to share it. Message us with anything you’ve got and we will bring it up on air. 🎧

Tonight we discuss all things #jealousy within the #blendedfamily web. This should be interesting! 😳 🎧 If you have or do experience jealousy yourself, or deal with issues caused by it in your blended family, we’d love to hear from you. It’s our hope to bring to light and #awareness to this very real multifaceted issue. Email, comment below or DM us with whatever type of jealousy exists amongst your troops or with the other family and we will discuss. It’s our guess that more people than not struggle in silence with jealousy in their blended families because they feel isolated or guilty; well no more. This is a very real and very normal thing that most, if not all, blended families deal with in one way or another.

Tonight on #blendedlife we are discussing all the awkwardness of cutting ties after #divorce or separation from your spouse. 😳 🎧 In addition to tonight’s episode topic we will also announce the winner(s) of a signed copy of the book “ConnecTEEN” by @bernardosalcidoiii! This book’s title is pretty self explanatory. Who doesn’t need some extra help with connection to a teenager in the home?! My favorite thing about it is that the author is concise, easy to follow and relatable. He does not overwhelm with too much instruction, but gives concrete ways you can better understand, discipline and #parenting your teen. If you wanted/needed you could read this book in a day or two for quick help! We highly recommend you get your hands on a copy of you have a teen or will eventually have a teen in your home.

How are #blendedfamilies handling custody arrangements during this pandemic, especially when a known case of COVID exists? Advice on how to handle kids coming between your relationship, pre-marriage. What do you do when your child hates your fiancé? How do you move forward when you’ve majorly stepped back? How to #discipline each other’s kids; how to know when to step in and when to step aside. Lack of structure between homes and how that effects the #childsbehavior and can even trickle into effecting your marriage. When you are a step-parent not wanting to overstep boundaries, but want/need to have parenting standards in your own home. Is it wrong to not want anything to do with your partner’s ex (the other bio parent)? How to avoid unwanted interactions. When the ex is undermining your blended family by filling the kid’s head with her own biases and lies, do you encourage your truth or let it go? The above topics come from specific and current situations other blended families are dealing with in their lives.

Adult children/step children still living in the home or relying heavily on parent. I don't currently have this issue but I see a few freeloaders in our future. My daughter is 18 today and is on track to move out and start her life. I have a fear that my step son's will want to move out, they will go straight to mom's but then keep asking dad to buy them everything putting a strain on us being able to enjoy our empty nesting. We are doing our best to teach them responsibility, but with BM's "couch crashing" influence, ugh.

I have 2 step-daughters that are compete daddy’s girls, which is sweet but they rely on him for EVERYTHING. Cooking, cleaning up after, picking out their clothes, trimming their nails, etc...all while criticizing everything. This critical nature carries over into what I cook (mom does it a better way) to the way I water my plants (yes, you read that right). Did I mention they are 15 and 11? I could go on and on. Trouble is, I want to like them, but I just don’t because I’m so bitter how they have no discipline and treat my 2 boys like trash. The most recent convo ended with my give a damn being busted because I was told that I should be able to get over it since I’m the adult and should set an example, and they are “just kids” and don’t know better....🤦🏻♀️ Trying to be judicial and I really want our family to “blend” but it’s been 4 years and seems to be getting worse. Help?? Btw, your podcast has got me through some SERIOUS depressing and lonely moments so THANK YOU and keep doing your thang cause you are a GODSEND! ️

Potential problems that come when a new baby is introduced into a blended family. My ex husband’s wife is pregnant and I have already noticed major changes. I’m also fearful that my ex husband’s wife pushed so hard for a baby for a control factor.

BD inherited money . BM requested the check be sent to my BF to handle because she was distraught . It’s in a UTMA custodial account with fidelity and now she wants her name on it and to have it moved into a regular savings. She is unemployed and very high conflict. Should my BF put her on ? He already has monthly statements sent to her. Her own family doesn’t speak to her and recommended not to do it but won’t get involved 🤦♀️ what would you do ?

10 year old not wanting to visit her mom because she lives in an apartment and can’t go anywhere fun or see friends.

I am a single mom, and my daughter has begun to call my new partner daddy. Her biological father has never been in the picture nor has tried. Am I wrong for allowing her to call him daddy, my family seems to have a problem. should I have a conversation with her telling her that it’s not okay? Any advice is helpful.

Have you ever heard of a mini wife syndrome?
Mini-Wife Syndrome is more common than most people realize in relationships where single fathers have inadvertently allowed their daughters to step into roles of companion, confidante, and/or helpmate with their fathers.

Our Purpose: Why is talking about blended families and life in general important? Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life

Tonight’s #Blendedlife topics include: 1. When you think the grass is greener on the other side and want to leave your spouse and end your family. When you feel like you’re missing out on something greater by staying put. When you are feeling that way, we want to tell you some things that will (hopefully) bring you back down to planet Earth. 2. We will discuss the ripple effects this pandemic and lockdown have had on people; on friendships, on #marriages, on #parenting, on everyone’s mental health, etc. It’s okay to cry uncle! 3. We answer a laundry list of questions from a woman who is feeling lost in her blended family (we’ve all been there): She wrote in asking the following: 1. How do you deal with a malicious mother who has been alienating her child from their father? 2. How do you deal with someone filing child support against your partner when they are the ones paying for everything to begin with? 3. How do I set boundaries with my “step son” without my partner taking offense? 4. How do you form a relationship with a step child when their bio parent is talking really bad you? 🎧 We would love your topic suggestions or questions for future podcasts! Please message us with anything you’ve got. Chances are if you are dealing with an issue, so are the rest of us! 🎧 LINK to graduation signs mentioned in tonight's video: www.crisandlaura.com

Tonight’s #blendedfamily topics include: 1. How to handle being a bio parent struggling with a #stepparent overstepping #boundaries in your blended family, voicing their opinion when unwarranted and coming in hot. 2. Julie was asked to share how she has dealt with a long history of her kids not being able to freely speak with her when they are with their dad and why there’s nothing in the custody agreement addressing it. 3. How to deal with feeling like you lose your spouse the second their kids walk through the door until they go back to their other parent. Coming in second is a tough pill to swallow; what is the expectation? 4. The ripple effect of different parenting styles in each household and the power struggle it creates. 🎧 We would love your topic suggestions or questions for future podcasts!

Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it).

On this episode of #BlendedLife we talk about #blendedfamily separation; living apart but #stayingmarried (is that even an option?!). It's more common than you'd think. How does a blended family married couple get to this place you may wonder; easily! What are the ramifications of separating and yet keeping your marriage in tact on paper (because that's all it would be at this point)? How do you, or even how can you, come back when trust is broken? What does choosing to live apart teach the kids that are watching? What advice do we have about feeling like you can't say or do anything right when your marriage is crumbling before your eyes? And most importantly, what do you do when your husband blocks you from Facebook in the midst of all this? There's certainly a lot to unpack here as we dive into these deep waters. When that finally wraps up, we end things with a discussion about step parenting when you are living in the shadow of the bio parent. How do you survive in a blended family where you feel not good enough? What do you do when you are always compared to your counter part bio parent and you feel you always come up short? How do you cope when your step children are hurting and acting out because of the death of their parent and are taking it all out on you? Talk about feeling helpless, disheartened and alone. We have some ideas to help you through. Enjoy!

Tonight’s episode will include the following discussions: 1. What’s in a name? How do you handle it when your spouse accidentally calls you by their exes’ name? 2. What do you do when you and your spouse are not in the same place at the same time mentally and emotionally? (We have a listener ask for advice about this very thing when it comes to getting married). 3. What are financial expectations and responsibilities for kiddos that aren’t biologically yours? 4. Should you reconsider #remarriage if your child(ren) don’t like your fiancé? What if they threaten to no longer live with you? 5. FaceTiming with your kids when they are away at their other parent’s home...seeing inside the other home or having the inside of your home seen; good idea or breach of privacy? 6. Gratitude; retraining and rewiring our brains. 🎧 As always, if there’s a topic or question you’d like us to discuss, message or email us!

Do you and your spouse feel disconnected in your marriage? What things create distance amongst you and your spouse in your home? Do you crave intimacy with your husband or wife and are you longing to get on the same page parenting all the children in your home? Well so do we! We address some of our pitfalls and discuss things we can to to get our marriage back on track within our blended family. But before we tackle all that we address a concern of one of our blended life support group member has about her step daughter staying and living in their home post high school. Needless to say she’s very uncomfortable and sad about this looming potential reality. We know this is such a huge concern and hot button topic for a lot of blended families. How should she broach such a touchy topic with her husband? Should a bio parent be allowed to lay down the law when it comes to their own children without considering their spouse first? How should she deal with the fear she faces having such a potentially explosive conversation? Should a marriage end because of a difference of opinion in living arrangements concerning adult children?! Woah; we have so much to say about all that! Enjoy!

We just got back from a little getaway without one of the kids. Have you ever had to reconsider how you do blended family vacations? Is it okay to leave someone behind and make memories with different sets of people within your blended family? Are vacations tough in general to maneuver for you? How do you set your family up for the best vacation possible? We break it all down for you and discuss how it went our first time out without all the kids in tow. Blending a family is hard, no doubt, and we all have been stuck wondering how to even blend our families together may times over; it’s no short order. Coming together as a blended family is all about getting on the same page, but how do you get on the same page with your spouse without overstepping boundaries? How do you talk to and discipline your step kids without stepping on your spouses toes? We discuss what we have learned, and are still working on, in that department. Speaking of boundaries, how do you decided if you should allow your child to not go to their other parent’s home if they don’t want to? This is so hard! Does age play a role when deciding to let your kids stay with you instead of going to their other biological parent’s home when they absolutely don’t want to? And lastly, how do you deal with jealousy and insecurities when your spouses’ past is still displayed on social media? Should you go down the rabbit hole of logging onto your spouses accounts and digging for information? EEK, we totally address this one head on! Enjoy!

On this episode we have a mixed bag of topics we discuss! Of course, we dive right into talking about our new year’s resolutions (what we hope for ourselves personally and for our blended family) and what 2020 means to us. After that we tackle all the things: Do you ever feel stuck in your blended family trying to please everyone? What do you do if your spouse is so overwhelmed that they don’t want to come home a the end of the day? Should you give up hope and trying to connect with your spouse’s ex for the good of the step children if there’s no interest or response? Is there a one-size fits all approach on how to handle finances when you are blended? How does one go about change, communication and compromise in a marriage? Do you let your step kids believe lies that are being put into their heads at the other home? How do you reconcile the possibility that your future step child(ren) may be poisoned against you before you’ve even had a chance to prove yourself? We always circle back around to the importance of trusting your partner. You must know when to be a silent partner and how to actively support him or her without being overbearing or a nag. Finally we let you know how you can get your blended family featured on our website; so listen for that and contact us if you wish to be considered! Enjoy!

I just can’t win. Seriously, I can’t, and neither can my spouse. Most days and discussions lately feel like one losing battle after another (we know you can relate). But is a marriage really about winning? Are relationships supposed to be a competition? Why is connecting so dang difficult? On this episode we give you an intimate look inside how our conversations tend go sideways and how we completely miss what the other person is trying to say. We divulge the truth behind our feelings of deflation and disappointment we experience in our marriage and why it’s so difficult to communicate and connect. If that wasn’t enough we also discuss how disheartening and completely frustrating it can be to have your spouse side-step important conversations with their ex to avoid conflict. I guess you can’t win or lose if you choose to not engage in the first place. What’s ironic about this is that by avoiding potential conflict on the periphery (with your ex) you actually tend to create it internally (with your spouse). Speaking of conflict and feeling like you’ve lost, what to do when your spouse invites unwanted guests for the holidays without discussing it with you first?! Can you really un-invite the already invited; especially if they are trouble seekers? Is there a win in the this situation? Listen to this episode to find out! Enjoy!

In this episode we focus on spouse life in a blended family. There is nothing more offensive than having someone talk to you in a negative light about your child(ren), especially if it is coming from your spouse. It have be difficult to have a meaningful and effective conversation about the tough stuff when you start out defensive and hurt. Mindfulness is key to enter into any hard talk you need to have with your significant other. Also KEY to any successful and loving marriage is trusting and believing that your spouse has your best interest at heart and is not out to get you or hurt you. When you can see things through that lens, it makes the tough stuff a lot less upsetting and allows you to actually receive what is at the heart of any issue you may be having (such as resentments, jealousy, or distress). It is also key to learn to let things go that don't really effect you and stop trying to micromanage your blended family to the point of creating unnecessary issues and upset. Stop trying to push your spouse into a relationship/friendship with your ex if they don't want it (that is certainly unfair). Stop living like single parents together; how confusing is that for everyone!? And stop holding onto the negativity or that is how you will approach every situation and conversation in your home, and what good comes from that? Enjoy!

Blended Family life is hard enough without having to take those once a year holiday photos for your cards am I right?! (Obviously Eric speaking here).... But what should we do if one of the kids does not want to be a part of your festive holiday tradition and memories? We discuss how to deal with an uncooperative child in the household even if you are not their financial supporter.. Which also leads us down the road to discussion of how we are blending our family finances and paying for the kids we did not create. So hold on tight as some people can get quite defensive when they get put in the middle of their spouse and biological child. Enjoy!

We discuss live on today's podcast the struggles of blending a family and how to overcome some of those big changes most of us face when blending our families. Have you ever faced the challenges a second or third name change may present? Or how it may effect your kids that someone else now has the same last name as their mother once did or their mom no longer has the same last name they do? What about moving into a home that was once shared by a first time family where memories were made and now that has all changed. We discuss how to communicate in these difficult times, see both sides and learn from our mistakes. After all, marriage does change your relationship and it is up to us to decide if it is for the better or worse. Enjoy!

Do you ever feel just completely alone in your blended family? We totally do too! But thanks to your questions you have made this split family thing feel... well.. normal again! On this episode of Blended Life we discuss the divide in a marriage when your friends and family decide to overstay their welcome. How this can really effect your spouse and their mindset which will ultimately lead to resentment and a diminished marriage. We dig deep into the differences of how traditions, religion and parenting styles can play a huge roll in your blended families lifestyle. But what if one of your kids has to sit out on a major family vacation because the bio parent is not willing to let them go on the trip? We discuss how to navigate all of these situations even when your step child is unappreciative and champions their dead beat bio parent when you have been there all along. So tune in and lets get to feeling normal again!

In this episode we tackle something everyone in a blended family faces: managing stress and conflict resolution. Both can seem daunting to take on, but both need to be mastered in order to have a fulfilling life together. #Managingstress looks different for everyone; it’s not a one-size-fits-all type of thing. It is highly important to figure out what you can do to bring yourself down off the cliff of stress. If you fail to figure it out, your stress will bleed onto the rest of the family and make for a difficult living situation (and blended families are hard enough as is lol). We talk about what we each do to manage the stress in our own lives. One huge stress reliever is conflict resolution. How do you resolve conflict amongst your ranks? If you don’t know the answer right now, you’d better figure it out. #Conflict is a natural part of any relationship; how we get through it determines the health and sustainability of our kinship. So often people sweep things under the rug (it’s the easy way out after all). This is a huge mistake. When issues are failed to be dealt with, resentments build up and tear people apart. We lose connection in the midst of unresolved feelings. Spend some time and effort working things out with the people you love; even if you must agree to disagree, acceptance is a type of resolution. In blended families there’s a ton of opportunity for conflict; deal with it. Care enough about the health of your #blendedfamily and your marriage to put in the work to be able to face the hurts, frustrations, and differences of opinions head on. Give yourselves the opportunity to have the strongest bond possible so you too don’t fall prey to that awful 70% divorce rate amongst blended family statistic. Enjoy!

In this episode we decided to take a beat and discuss situations and answer questions our listeners, and blended life social media followers, have written in about the past couple of weeks. We start out dealing with #differentparentingstyles and how to not let it affect your marriage (because this is one of those things that can really come between a couple). Something that most people in a blended family don't consider is that different parenting styles can also cause a wedge between stepparent and stepchild making one or both feel like the don't "connect" with the other. How can they though when the child is being raised up differently than their stepparent agrees with; naturally there's a pull-back. It's just something to be mindful of. Don't lose sight of the bigger picture; the end goal is to keep you marriage in tact because the kids will eventually leave you. Next we discuss what it is to feel unappreciated and frustrated as a step parent who does all the heavy lifting during the week, while the bio parent in the other home gets to play weekend warrior with the kids. This is a tough spot to be in for sure, but we have some good advice to help you through the mud if you too are in a situation like this one. And what about ex-in-laws who try to keep reeling you in even though you are about to marry someone else (who isn't their child)!?! Yep, this happened on someone and we talk about how to take a stand and create boundaries that protect you and your children from some pretty confusing and potentially upsetting dynamics. We look at this situation from a few angles and came up with some pretty sound advice for this person. Then there's the parent who is fed up with the other parent (divorced parents) because they want all the bragging rights, but are doing none of the work. I think this is something most of us have felt at one point of time in our #divorcedlife... Oh boy do we get into that. Lastly we address Holidays and some different options to consider when you are planning out what they will look like in your #blendedfamily. It can be a very stressful thing to find time to enjoy all the traditions you want to have when the kids are all over the place. Don't fret, we got you! Enjoy!

On this episode we talk about tips and tricks of how to have a successful blended family household. Imparting wisdom we’ve gained by living this life is what our mission is all about! We also discuss connecting with your spouse in the midst of the chaos that is living a blended family lifestyle. A lot of our listeners aren’t married yet, but are dating people with children. It’s tricky. There is a lot to consider and learn about the other person before you commit to them and their kids for real. We discuss some of what our deal breakers were and also why we chose each other. Many married couples, including us right now, find their marriage getting lost in the kid, and work shuffle. When this happens, we give practical advice on what to do. We hope that some of our advice and wisdom is helpful to you, your marriage and your blended family life. There’s so much to navigate and always consider, it can feel confusing and make you feel lost. No worries though, we got you! Enjoy!

In this podcast episode we talk about the #religiousstigmas and judgements (and also that of those who we call friends) that surround both #blendedfamilies and divorce. People are very quick to pass #judgment about a situation and/or people they don't even know. People's lives and choices are scrutinized, when the truth is that no one truly knows what happens behind closed doors. We all have to answer to God for our behaviors and choices; how we reconcile our hearts is between our maker and us alone. Don't allow imperfect people cause you shame because we all live in glass houses and we all fall short of the Glory of God (divorced or not). Judgemental people's ignorance and criticism is the antithesis of how Jesus led and how we are called to lead. We believe in a God that is powerful enough to forgive (even divorce) and big enough to embrace blended families. We also believe that churches can do better serving blended families. There's a real need for support, and there's an even bigger need to teach that God needs to be the glue that keeps blended families stuck together. Please let us know if you belong to a church with a support group or small group that caters to blended families; we'd like to check it out! And if all that wasn't enough, we had time to answer a listener's questions in regard to dealing with a high conflict, manipulative and two -faced co-parent. The advice we give here is pretty solid. Enjoy!

On this episode we dive into how we discuss blended family topics with our children. Kids are curious and are forever trying to make sense of their reality. They want to know why their parents got divorced, and they will continue to seek out an answer until something true and concrete sticks. We discuss what to say, what to omit and why. Children also get caught in the crossfire of co-parenting and therefore are so often they let in on issues parents are having with one another because it directly involves and effects them. There are ways to go about letting the kids in on the happenings without be destructive and harmful. One thing to always remember is to be truthful and speak that truth in love and in regard to the best interest of the children involved. We hope this episode speaks into how you discuss life with your own children. Enjoy!

Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life

WOW. We covered a lot of ground in this blended life podcast episode. This week we decided to bring up topics that our viewers and social media followers requested us to discuss. Like kids, in-laws can really help to dissolve or #strengthenamarriage. Many couples don't give the proper level of importance, nor pay a proper level of attention, to spouse/in-law relationships before walking down the isle. We break down why this shouldn't be overlooked or side-stepped. We talk about how our #inlaws accepted us when we decided to blend our family and how in-laws keeping in contact/friendship with your ex can affect the dynamic of your marriage. Is it appropriate for your parent to keep in contact with your ex? Good question! After we squash that, we dive right into step children and discipline. Two questions were given to us that we tackle: 1. What do you do when your spouse (the step parent) disciplines or parents your child in a way you disagree with? and 2. What do you do when your #stepchild ignores or disrespects you? We do our best to answer each. Both very trending topics among step families. As always we keep it real and don't hold back, which is apparent. Enjoy!

There's so much stigma when it comes to therapy. In this episode we share our experience both with per-marital counseling and post wedding marriage therapy (we've done both). Turns out we have very different views on how helpful both were and are in regard to our #blendedfamily life, per usual lol. But, before we dive into that topic, we deal with the mess we spilled at the end of our last episode. We open up about how children, and more specifically our relationship with our children, can cause marital challenges. The question comes up, can children really come between spouses? This right here seems to be a trending topic among blended family and step parenting support groups. Kids certainly do get a bad wrap when it comes to destroyed blended family marriages, but is that fair? We answer this very question. Another question we get to is does #marriagecounseling really help, or does it just create problems? What is the value of confronting tough issues with a third party present? Does shared life experience matter when it comes to #choosingyourtherapist? All very interesting things to discuss it turns out. And not to disappoint, we give our audience a pretty real look at what goes on in our sessions and in our marriage. Enjoy!

On this episode things get real...real uncomfortable. We both open up about lessons we learned from our previous marriages and #divorces. If that wasn't enough, we own up to our parts in our marriages ending. It's never fun to reflect on things that aren't so flattering, but it is so necessary to be able to have a #healthypartnership post split. It takes two to make or break any relationship, so being able to define your role in either is a huge win for your future and an important jumping off point to forgiveness towards yourself of your mistakes. These are the conversations we would hope any blended family couple has before they walk down that isle. Knowing where you spouse has been will give you such insight to how your marriage is going to be. The past informs our futures, and so boundaries and insecurities will come from that in your relationship. Part of #lovingyourspouse is understanding them, and believe it or not accepting your marriage "rules" (for a lack of a better term) comes easier when you know the "how come" behind them. It is in conversations such as this one where you learn to love your spouse the way THEY need to be loved instead of how YOU think they should be loved. You may have to read between the lines sometimes, but we think you're smart enough to do it! We thought we were going to have time to squeeze in marriage counseling into this podcast episode, but we totally bit off more than we could chew and ran out of time. This one is worth the listen all the way through; when you get to the end you will find out why (probably the most real and profound tough part of our marriage makes it's way to all of you). Enjoy!

This episode is a mixed bag; we tackled A LOT! Social media has been a great way to connect with other blended families and find out what hot topics people are looking for subject matter on. This is exactly how we decided to talk about parallel parenting versus co-parenting and #finances in a blended family. We even got pulled into a discussion of #childsupport during our live recording, which was super interesting. We never really discuss our points of view beforehand, and on this episode you can tell as things get a tad real and a little heated lol. A lot of blended family's are set up right off the bat to have parallel parenting between significant others where it him and his and her and hers and each parent their own. It takes a real effort to actually blend into having cohesive and complimentary #parentingstyles. Getting on the same page is no joke. Same thing goes with finances. Blended family's usually start out with two financially established individuals who have to figure out how to commingle funds. The question is to join, or not to join (bank accounts that is)? In this podcast we tell you what works for us and why. We also discuss if we would do it differently. Speaking of funds, it was a natural progression to dip our toes in the child support topic...eeek. There's no happy or good answer when it comes to that subject. There's a lot to digest, so we hope you are hungry for what we got! Enjoy!

We are back with another installment of marriage in a blended family! When two established individuals with kids in tow decide to join lives, there’s bound to be struggles of all kinds. Family values, parenting styles, religious practices, finances, and so much more need to be discussed and agreed upon, even if its agreeing to disagree, in order to have a successful blended family. We have seen and learned that your blended family is only as good as your marriage is strong. The health of your marriage trickles down to the well being of your kids, so it is very important that you put your all into being good with your spouse for the sake of the children. When things are off between spouses in a blended family it creates all kinds of unease and insecurities within the whole family. Your marriage needs to be the top priority in your family, for its survival is also your family’s survival. In this podcast episode we discuss all this and give advice for how to put your marriage first and make your significant other feel valued and heard. You can do this; you can break through the walls of resentment and misunderstanding by extending olive branches to your spouse and by being less self focused and more marriage focused. Enjoy!

His. Hers. Ours. The kids in a blended family greatly affect how your marriage will be. The trick is to work on your marriage outside of the kids so that you have a strong enough foundation to weather the storms that will inevitably come as life unfolds. The greatest thing you can do for your marriage is to communicate effectively in an effort to be on the same page as much as possible. And when you can’t seem to get on the same page, be willing to accept the things you can’t change. Agree to disagree. It’s perfectly fine hold different perspectives as long as you respect one another. In this podcast we discuss it all, and even find ourselves wanting more time because there’s so much to say on the subject. It’s important you protect your marriage in all areas of your life so that your blended family has a strong corner stone; you will need it. And when you feel unevenly yoked with your spouse because there’s been a power transfer in regards to the children, again, work it out, accept what you can’t control, but don’t continue to fight a losing battle or you may find one day you lose your marriage. Enjoy!

Feeling out of control is part of blended family life. Parents, step parents and kids alike all feel this way at some point. There’s too many variables and moving parts to have your hands in it all; some things are just not within your reach to control. The reality of this stings more than we like to admit for most of us. How unnatural is it, after all, to be forced to relinquish influence and control of your minor children part of the time? It goes against the very essence of parenthood. In this episode we discuss how to deal when we feel powerless in any aspect of a blended life. Perspective and acceptance are key to navigating these murky waters. It also helps to know that feeling this way is normal; no, you are not the only one. The good news is that you have the power to put the energy used fighting that which you are powerless into things way more worthy of it. We hope you enjoy!

I can think of fewer things more awkward and uncomfortable than being forced around an #exspouse and their new beau; well, welcome to #blendedlife! Blended life is ALL about unavoidable and inevitable awkward and uncomfortable situations within a blended family. Nothing seems natural, because it's NOT! In this podcast we break down how to deal when you are stuck in social situations with your #childrensotherfamily such as sporting events, school functions, doctors appointments, celebrations, etc. It can fill us with anxiety and make us act a fool. Most times when we don't know how to handle ourselves in a social environment, we look like a bunch of T-Rex's trying to clap our hands; it's ridiculous. When we lose ourselves in the drama of a social situation involving our children, we are only harming them. When parents are present at a function for their kids, it is a giant timeout for the parents to leave the negativity at home in order to be able to jointly celebrate and cheer on the kids. The kids come first. If you've ever witnessed a child conflicted about talking to their other parent (whose custody day it isn't) at something as described, I promise you it creates an unsafe and distrusting reality for them. Kids need to be free to love both their parents, and their steps. They need to feel free to interact both families at any joint event. They need both parents to put aside their differences for that time and just be there for them. If you have confused kids, please listen and we will help you take that awkward sting out of something unavoidable. Enjoy!

Why do we feel the need for a blended family help podcast and why we feel the need to pull our familys together? We recognize that blended family's look so many different ways and nothing about it is normal. The failure rate for a second marriage is 70% and that is just unacceptable to us. We believe we can do better in our blended families and this episode explains how.

Life is all about balance, or so they say. Balancing life in a #blendedfamily, however, is on a whole other level. We sat down to have a real conversation about just some of the things our blended family has got going on and how we cope. Some days and weeks we have no idea how on Earth we are going to be able to keep up with everything and everyone, let alone be able to tend to our marriage, embrace #extendedfamilies and even fit in some self care (remember you can not pour from an empty cup). Both of us walked away from the mics with a lot more to say on the subject (but who’s going to watch a 5 hour video podcast 😂). When we think about balance, another word often comes to mind and that is #fairnessinafamily. How do we balance life so everything’s fair (especially with his and hers kids in the home). While we are in the thick of this life and still learning as we go, I believe we’ve found a solid answer to this very question; it’s all about adjusting your perspective on what is both fair and balanced. We all get so caught up in words and their meanings that we lose sight of a much bigger picture. Enjoy!

A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a #blendedfamily many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life

This one is a must for all blended families! What started out as us inviting both of our Mom’s on our Podcast to give advice and discuss #extendedfamily support in a blended life, turned into one of the most beautiful conversations I’ve ever had. These women did in fact, talk about being extended family of a #blendedfamily and what challenges comes with that, but they also opened up about so much more. Did you know that divorce effects our parents too?! Did you know that there’s a delicate balance of loving on your grand kids the way you always have and then making your new step grandkids feel loved too? Did you know that there’s still residual feelings your parents will always carry for the other biological parent of their grandchildren?! Did you know that love only grows and is not finite? Did you ever stop to consider how hard or easy it was for your in-laws to accept you into the family with all of your red flags flying?! The wisdom these two ladies pour out is phenomenal and we can ALL take away something relevant to our family life, our #parenting style, our step-parenting and our marriages. What a huge blessing having this conversation documented is; our children are going to be as obsessed as we are! Enjoy!

Buckle up because on this episode of our #blendedlife podcast we talk about #stepparent expectations…..for the first time as a couple…on air and with cameras rolling! May I recommend having this conversation in the beginning and not while being recorded LOL! Being a step parent is not for the weak, that’s for sure. It is very necessary to sit down with your spouse, if there are #stepchildren involved, and discuss what your expectations are for the step parent of the family. Husband and wife need to be on the same page about the roles in the household so that the parent and step parent both feel supported, heard and understood. The more you can pave the road you are on with a mutual understanding about how you expect your household to be run, the smoother the ride will be. Do not forgo this conversation to avoid conflict! Enjoy!

Dating when you are a divorced #singleparent is tough. There’s so much to consider, to navigate and SO many land mines to avoid to becoming happy while keeping your children safe. In our #blendedfamily there has been a lot we’ve done imperfectly, but we did the single parent dating part pretty mindfully and respectfully when it came to our children and our exes (in our humble opinion anyway lol). If you are curious at all about what #dating life looks like when there are kids involved after divorce, this podcast is a goldmine of experience and advice. We promise, if you listen all the way through you will have a better handle on ways to set everyone involved up for success for dating with kids.

On this podcast we break down what we like to call the “ex factor”. When you share children with another person from a #divorce or failed relationship outside of your current marriage, you open your lives up to a world of chaos, confusion, frustration and madness while dealing with out ex spouses! Listen to real talk from both the male and female perspective of navigating this reality in a #blendedfamily. We don’t hold back and we don’t sugarcoat the truth; this is a blended family topic you don’t want to miss. All our #exes are here to stay, so we best figure out how to deal with each of them in the most drama-free way possible. Don’t allow yourself to be your blended family’s weakest link by taking the bait from your EX! Enjoy!
