Blended Life EP. 24: Offended In a Blended Family

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!

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
