In this episode of the Nacho Kids Podcast, Lori, co-founder of Nacho Kids, interviews Summer Butler with the Blended Book Co., author of BLENDED: Aligning the Hierarchy of Heart + Home. Summer and her husband have been blending for 11 years. She has two teenage stepsons and one “ours” son. The hardest part of blending for them was their marriage, not the stepkids. The personal baggage that was brought into their marriage caused them to struggle.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Baggage brought into the relationship
- Growing up in a split family
- Having the stepkids full-time except every other weekend
- Losing yourself in the blend
- Different expectations for the stepkids vs. bio kid
