Blended Life EP. 165: Blending Our Family

 On this episode of Blended Life you get a peek into our story as we look back on how we came together blending our family and moving forward. We begin the episode discussing Halloween and how it made us realize we are in a whole new season of life when it comes to celebrating the holidays. You'll hear us begin to talk about how we plan to navigate this upcoming holiday season now that our kids are all teens and young adults (living away from home). Once the holidays have been tackled, Eric discusses how he knew he was ready to remarry, introduce the kids to one another and move in. He also shares what he would tell someone who is ready to throw in the towel and leave their #blendedfamily. You'll hear both Eric and Julie explore what they each wish they would have done differently on their blended family journey as well as what they feel is the best part of this #lifeexperience and what they are most proud of. The pod ends with the #biggestlessons they have learned so far in their blended family life together. This is a favorite episode of ours, may you be blessed by it!

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.
