I (Mike) often felt stuck on the outside as a step-parent.  Kim and Annika had their little inside routines and jokes that I couldn't seem to connect with.

What I really wanted was to instantly feel included…but blended family life just doesn't work that way.  When I was feeling like a Stranded Stranger, what I was really wanting was for our family to "blend"…but one stepfamily expert says that "compartmentalizing" is a better approach.

In this episode, we're laying out one of the most effective strategies for "rescuing" yourself from being that Stranded Stranger so that you can feel more connected with your step-kids (and your spouse!).
