We’re popping in with a short summer update before taking a brief pause from releasing new episodes throughout July 2026.

But don’t worry, we’re not going anywhere!

We’re using July to prepare some fun and helpful new things we’ll begin sharing August 4th, including new podcast episodes in both audio and video.

Before we talk about what’s coming, we’re also taking a few minutes to reflect on something every blended family experiences: change. Whether it’s a shift in schedule, a new family rhythm, a move, or a parenting adjustment, change can stir up more than we expect.

That doesn’t mean change is wrong. It simply means healthy change needs clarity, patience, communication, collaboration, and room for everyone to adjust.

During July, we’d love for you to stay connected by revisiting past episodes, taking or retaking the updated Blended Family Breakthrough Quiz, and checking out our free audio course, The Five-Minute Blended Family Reset, inside the Blended Family Breakthrough app.

Then we’ll be back August 4th with new episodes, including important conversations about stepparent burnout and the complex question of having an “ours” baby.

You’ll Discover

• Why we’re taking a short pause from releasing new episodes throughout July
• How change can impact kids, parents, stepparents, and couples in blended family life
• What’s coming when the podcast returns in both audio and video on August 4th
