Build Lasting and Loving Connections Between Parents, Stepparents and Their Children Even after a Divorce or Heartbreak

It's exciting to find love again
After a painful or difficult breakup that was hard on you, but probably even harder on the kids.
We all want – and need, secure attachment with the people we love.
Yet many of us haven’t learned how to create and sustain a healthy relationship, or have learned dysfunctional behaviors and emotional reactions that push people away, and sabotage love once we find it!
Research shows that a new partnership can strain your relationship with your children, and vice versa. Especially when it comes to teenagers, who are dealing with their own struggles.
You’re committed to making things work in your new relationship-for you, your partner and the kids.
But you know that there are challenges ahead. There are several major challenges (potential landmines) that affect most blended families. If you don’t address those landmines, they are very likely to end your relationship within 2-4 years.
Take the Blended Family Quiz to discover the 7 key challenges that affect blended families
The good news is
You can learn how to navigate those landmines, or avoid them altogether.
I help divorced and single parents who are concerned that their new relationship won’t be good for their kids, avoid the step family landmines so they can have a happy family the second time around.
Through over 20 years experience working with families, and the many great teachers I’ve been lucky to learn from, I’ve created a system to help you identify the landmines you can’t see on your own. And I’ll give you the tools you need to navigate those landmines, so you can have the lasting love (and family) you’ve always wanted.
It starts from within, allowing ourselves to feel, and heal, from the past, learning better ways to share what’s in our hearts and hear what’s most important to those we care about…
