Ep. #12 Sarah Ortiz on Simply Complicated

Are you a Stepparent? A Stepchild? StepDad or StepMom?

Maybe you're new to the role or maybe you want to learn and share. I will admit I don't always know what I am doing but that's the reason I decided to create this channel.

"Who can I really talk to about this?  Who can understand what I go through?  Is it worth it being a step dad? What is the role of a step dad or step mom? 

I was recently having these thoughts about my life and my family. There's only so much I can talk to my wife about anyway and it would be great to have a community of folks just like me to share some experiences as I share mine. This channel will review and research and share tips while documenting my learning journey so that it becomes a tool to help people just like you.  

I can say being a Stepdad is rewarding, exhausting, fulfilling, challenging, frustrating, purposeful.  With each day comes a new blessing and I love all my children and my wife.

Subscribe and share on YouTube.  I'm putting my heart into this.
