Blended Family Breakthrough

182. How to Lead Your Blended Family with Intentionality and Courage [with Mike Haney]


Listen Later

I (Mike) take leadership very seriously.  

One of my desires, even in our current empty nest years is to be the kind of family leader that my children and stepchild want to connect with and listen to.

But often I feel overwhelmed or frustrated as I lead my blended family.  All the complexities can lead to confusion that robs me of the confidence and connection I'm trying to build.

Guys — have you ever felt that way?

You certainly aren't alone.  And you don't have to figure it all out by yourself.  

In this episode, we're reconnecting with Mike Haney who will offer his insightful perspectives on how to intentionally lead your blended family.  

Mike has been courageously leading his blended family for over 20 years and this discussion will help you to gain hope through a deeper understanding of your role so that you can experience fulfillment in your marriage and in blended family life.

Don't let the complexities of blending keep you from courageously leading your family.  You can be intentional and effective with the right attitude and understanding.  Then you can experience the confidence, connection (and peace) you're looking for!

You'll Discover:

  • Why it's critical to gain information and understanding of the complexities of leading a blended family 
  • How to manage your anger and frustration when faced with challenges
  • The 5 Stages of relationships and positive ways to cherish and connect with your wife as you move through them
  • How to break free from unproductive patterns
