Blended Family Breakthrough

52. Overcoming Discouragement (Part 2)


Listen Later

It takes a lot of energy and effort to make a blended family work…

…and when we don't see the results we want, we can get stuck in discouragement.   

In this episode we'll be talking with our clients Jake and Whitney who have experienced their fair share of disappointment and discouragement. 

Jake and Whitney describe feeling "Hopeless, Defeated and Angry"…but they didn't allow themselves to get stuck there.  They've consistently devoted themselves to their development — both individually and as a couple.  Their hard work and intentional investment has made all the difference in their marriage and blended family! 

You'll laugh, you'll cry and you'll relate to Jake and Whitney's story of struggle.  Plus, you'll discover ways that you can thrive by following their examples!   

Not only will Jake and Whitney encourage you in this episode, but they also might be able to help you take a next step in life…you see, they are a life coaching team who will equip you to live steadfast, through freedom, so you can impact your world.  If that sounds good to you, then check out how you might partner with them at https://www.steadfastlifecoaching.com/
