Blended Life EP. 25: I Just Can't Win

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!

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 #blen
