As a step-parent myself, with a 12-year-old I’ve adopted and two amazing step-kids I co-parent with my wife and their dad I understand the unique challenges and emotions that come with blended families. It isn’t always easy, and every situation can look a little different, but with the right support and guidance, you can truly become the positive, steady presence kids need in their lives.

I help step-parents navigate the unique challenges of blending families and, when the time comes, walk confidently through the adoption process. As a [step-parent/adoptive parent], I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to step into a parenting role that doesn’t always come with a clear roadmap. From building trust with step-kids, to balancing co-parenting with ex-partners, to understanding the legal and emotional side of adoption — it’s a journey full of questions most people don’t talk about openly. That’s why I created this community and course: to give you practical tools, emotional support, and a safe space where you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Whether you’re just starting out as a step-parent, considering adoption, or already in the process, my goal is to help you: - Build stronger, healthier family bonds - Navigate tough conversations with confidence - Understand adoption steps without the overwhelm - Feel supported by people who get it This isn’t just about parenting — it’s about creating a family culture where everyone feels valued, loved, and heard. Welcome — you don’t have to walk this path alone.
