“My sister-in-law told me about Nacho at a family reunion. She saw me trying to help the stepkids and the attitudes they gave me, and then the resulting stress it caused me. She simply said, “I heard about this Nacho thing for stepparents. Check it out. It might help you.” I am so thankful I did! And I decided to join the Academy because what better way to learn about it. I am still in shock of how this changed our family! Everyone is much more at peace and I’m finally happy after seven years of stepfamily misery!” A.Q.
