Every couple wants to experience connection, peace, and success as they navigate through the ups and downs of blended family life.

Most of us know it takes work to have a healthy, thriving marriage — but when the work feels impossible, it's easy to get stuck in painful cycles of unresolved issues and ongoing conflict.

In episode 101, we shared 4 "back-breakers" that make the work we needed to do harder than it needs to be.  When we're facing these obstacles, things feel impossible and many couples are ready to throw in the towel.

We experienced that kind of hopelessness first hand in our journey…

…thankfully, we discovered 4 "load-lifters" that helped us get out from under the "back-breakers" and move toward resolution, healing and change!

In this episode, we'll share these 4 "load-lifters" and the practical steps you can take to put them into action.  When you do, you'll be more equipped to move forward and engage in the work that needs to be done — without getting overwhelmed and stuck.

You'll Discover:

• 4 practical "load-lifters" to help you get out from under the "back-breakers" that keep you stuck and overwhelmed
• Sensible steps to move toward resolution, healing and change
• Encouragement (which we all need!) for your blended family journey
