When you add children into the mix of a romantic relationship, it becomes dynamic, and let's be honest....it can be complicated. What happens if you’re more deeply attached to your boyfriends kids than you ever could have imagined?

Can you just ditch the guy and keep the kids?

In this episode, you’re going to meet an incredible woman who fell in love with a divorced father of two kids. Our guest for this episode is Dani Alpert, the author of the memoir, “The Girlfriend Mom”.

Dani will talk about her story, her struggles, and how she came into writing the book, The Girlfriend mom. She shares how she fell in love with a man, and how she became deeply attached to his kids...and then he "dumped her for a blonde".  Now what? 

Will she be able to continue the relationship and bond she has formed with the kids? How will she navigate this relationship?

Find out what happened and how Dani is doing as she shares her truth and how she overcame the challenges she’s been through after the kids became a part of her life.
