I have to be honest. When I opened Our Blended Home, I was looking for a little space in the universe for me to let the "teacher/coach" side of me loose to play. Then I started listening to all the "experts" who talked about engagement, daily posts, and being active all the time. So... I went ahead and started doing that, and it felt icky. I'm an introvert, I'm happy to show up and help, but please don't make me lead conversations and small talk, I may faint! 😂 SO...Here is to a fresh start, giving you what I INTENDED to give you. Our Blended Home will now be your LEARNING HUB for all things related to stepfamily parenting. I will be offering mini-teachings, answering Q&A questions, and giving a live workshop once a month. For you, that means you get to learn at your own pace without all the noise of a social media group. You can ask questions in the community or DM me. You can chime in on the occasional poll to let me know what you want next. You can absolutely ask me to cover a specific topic in a workshop/teaching session. What we're not doing is random chit-chat for the sake of engagement. You are too busy raising kids for that! I want to be your resource for useful information and support. If you know a stepparent or their partner who is in the early stages of blending, please invite them to our learning hub, I really do want to support more blended families! Thanks so much for being here. Comment below with your feedback on this change. :)
