Blended, Blessed & Always A Mess

We would love to hear from you!!!

We are super excited about the amount of listeners we are reaching across the entire country!  Our goal when we started this podcast was to just help one family!  

To know that we are helping many is incredibly rewarding and we feel so blessed!

Today we answer some of your questions we've been getting via social media and the website!

We hope you enjoy!

Love

We would love to hear from you!!!

Keeping your family engaged is HARD!!!  And that goes for Nuclear and Blended Families!!!

Angie convinced me to read this book called "Take Back Your Family" and we both absolutely LOVED IT!!!

So...in this episode we do a little "book report" if you will...we discuss high points of the book and things we would like to start implementing with "Our Crew"...

We used new editing software so I'm hopeful our audio problems are behind us and we've also advanced to having an intro/outro!!!

Hope you enjoy this week's episode and God Bless!!!

We would love to hear from you!!!

People always ask...How do you do it?  Or they say...I bet your calendar is crazy! (And our calendar is CRAZY)...

So in this episode we tried to detail just how crazy it is AND some of the life hacks we use to make our Blended, Blessed & Always A Mess life work...

Update...we feel like the audio is a little off for Angie on this so we are working to fix that and apologize in advance!

Enjoy!

We have both done therapy...BUT...we came into it with different views and we realize that most people have very different views on therapy...

In this episode, we talk about how/why it was helpful for us and how it can be helpful for you/your kids and others and shouldn't be seen as something filled with shame...it's a healthy avenue to live a better life!

Enjoy!

In this episode, we visit with Crew Member Lexi who shares with us what it was like for her to go thru a divorce and how that sped up her maturity...

We also learn how Angie helped Lexi let go of parenting her brothers and learn how to be a kid!!!  Which is super important!

Hope you enjoy!

In this episode we visit with the oldest sibling in the Crew...Hallie Bear!  (That's what we call her)...

We truly believe if you have been thru divorce as a parent or child you will learn a lot of helpful tips from Hallie...I don't want to say we were "surprised" but Hallie definitely IMPRESSED us with her deep thoughts and wisdom on the subject!

Hope you enjoy!

In this episode we did it!!!  We got married!

And honestly we couldn't believe how happy and excited our kiddos were!  It made the entire day/experience and we wanted to share with you our family's highlights from the day!

Maybe if you are considering blending a family you will find some nuggets in here to incorporate as well!

Thanks for listening to the day our Family got married!

This is a very important episode that gets to the bottom of why Angie and I decided to get married...

Because Angie had zero plans to ever marry again...like zero...

So getting her from "I'm NEVER getting married" to deciding she wanted to fully embrace "The Crew" saying "I Do" was a process...

And spoiler alert...her change of opinion came back to our kids (Crew)...

We hope you enjoy this week's Episode called "The M Word"...

In this episode, Angie that it would be a great idea to talk about many of our differences!  LOL...

It was actually kind of fun to re-visit all of them...some we have worked thru...some we compromised on and some we have just had to learn to live with...

But they not only effect us but our kids too so we thought it was definitely worth exploring...

Enjoy!

We've talked a LOT about Chace's growth in the last 2.5+ years...in this episode, you get to hear about it firsthand from Chace..

We are super proud of him and we think he does a great job conveying his experiences here while embarrassing myself and Angie at different times here (as he points out areas where we needed to grow as well!)

PS: Please ignore our dog Polly whining thru the door at times during this episode because we wouldn't let her into the Studio with us...

Hope you enjoy!
