In this episode of Raising His Kids, I sit down with Brittney Phillips from Blending Bravely to talk about why your marriage is the foundation of your blended family. As a certified professional coach, teacher, and somatic healing enthusiast, Brittney has walked the blended family roller coaster herself. From navigating loyalty binds and parenting style clashes to overcoming grief and healing from past trauma, she brings wisdom, experience, and practical advice to the table.  

We dive into the challenges that so many blended families face—kids struggling to adjust, co-parenting conflicts, and the constant balancing act of meeting everyone’s needs. But at the heart of it all is your marriage. Brittney and I discuss why prioritising your relationship isn’t just important for you and your partner, but for the entire family dynamic. We share practical ways to strengthen your marriage, set boundaries, and find joy in the midst of the chaos.  

Whether you’re in a second marriage, navigating step-parenting struggles, or just feeling like your relationship has taken a backseat, this episode is full of encouragement and real-life strategies to help you and your partner stay connected. Tune in for an honest and insightful conversation about building a blended family on a strong foundation.
