Honestly… there isn’t enough out there that shares the true struggles about being in a blended family 💔

As a former stepmom and as a licensed marriage and family therapist, I want to share the struggles blended families go through and also share the tools needed to overcome these struggles.

That’s why I am hosting a free 1 hour masterclass on the top 3 struggles blended families go through and how to overcome them and thrive 🌱✨

When a stepchild pulls away, it’s not rejection... it’s a test of whether safety still exists. Save this if you needed the reminder.

Sometimes love isn’t gone.
It’s just uneven for a while.

If you’re carrying more right now, pause.
Love has seasons, the work is staying present, not keeping score 🤍

Send this to a stepparent who needs to hear this 💛

12/01/2025

When the kids don’t warm up right away, it’s so easy to think it’s a reflection of you.

But in blended families, distance is often just a sign of transition — not rejection.

Kids protect what feels familiar.
They guard the routines, the dynamics, the story they’ve always known.

And when someone new enters that story, even with the best intentions… their system needs time to recalibrate.

This carousel walks you through the reminder every stepparent needs:
It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about being steady.

The safe moments you create today become the trust they give you tomorrow.

If you’re in the thick of it, ask yourself:
👉 What small, consistent gesture can I show up with this week?

Emotional distance rarely comes from one “big issue.”

It comes from the small habits that quietly disconnect you over time.

If you’re noticing the drift, start here:

➡️ Name the silence. Say what’s not being said instead of hoping it resolves itself.

➡️ Swap “I’m fine” for honesty. Even one real sentence builds more intimacy than forced calm.

➡️ Check in daily. Thirty seconds of genuine attention beats hours of surface-level coexistence.

➡️ Repair quickly. Don’t let small hurts harden into resentment.

Closeness isn’t lost overnight — and it can be rebuilt the same way: one intentional moment at a time.

Save this to revisit when things feel “off.”

I think sometimes we forget that alignment isn’t a one-time thing.

You don’t just “get on the same page” once and stay there.

You keep coming back to it, especially when life feels messy.

Blended families work not because it’s easy, but because two people keep showing up, choosing each other, and choosing the kids , even when it’s hard.

It’s not perfection that keeps a family together. It’s commitment.

Yesterday I worked with a blended family couple, and something we talked about stuck with me.

We’re so quick to measure progress by how close everyone feels, how connected the step-parent and child are, how “bonded” the family seems. But real connection doesn’t happen on command.

Sometimes love grows in silence, in small gestures, in showing up even when it’s awkward or one-sided.

That slow, steady kind of love usually ends up being the strongest kind.

Don’t rush the bond. Trust the process. The closeness will come. 🌿

Fights happen. They are part of every relationship, especially in blended families.

But what really matters is what happens after.

It is not the fight that breaks the bond. It is the silence, the distance, and the lack of repair that follow.

Next time you and your partner argue, try saying, “I don’t love how we handled that, but I love you. Let’s fix this together.”

That one moment of repair does more for your connection than pretending everything is fine ever will. 💙

If you’re a stepparent, take a deep breath. 💚

When I became a stepmom, I thought love and respect would come quickly if I just tried hard enough. But I learned that step-parenting moves at its own pace.

Respect takes time.
Connection grows slowly.
And patience is the quietest form of love. 💚

You don’t have to replace anyone to matter. You just have to keep showing up, even when it feels like nothing is changing. That is what makes the difference.
