I answer some listener questions today from our private facebook group!

 

First, a stepmom dealing with a high conflict bio mom who wants to tell her how to run her household. Then, a stepmom who loves her role, but is being made to feel like she is overstepping. And last, a bio mom who is interfering with a stepmoms plan for bedroom arrangements for her kids. Maybe some of you can relate with the challenges these stepmoms face!

Blended families require a lot of balance. Many parents struggle because they don’t know which should come first, their relationship with their partner, or their children. There are different factors you can look at, but ultimately, the attention you spend both on your partner and your kids needs to be carefully managed. You will also find that this balance can shift around over the years at different stages of your children's lives.

Charla Miller is a successful author who used traumatic events in her life to propel her forward. She wrote a book called, Wonder and Beauty: My Journey From Heartbreak to Healing Through the Wonder of Horses. Her story is paving the way for others to see that their pain from loss isn't the ending but a launching point to even greater connection to those they love and so much more.

 

Charla returns to talk about the reunification with her son, which she did not know was coming when she was on this show back in December. To hear that first interview with the full story, click here.

 

In this interview we discuss

 

  • A recap of her personal story of parental alienation
  • How the reunification came to be
  • Her emotions during that time
  • What it was like spending a week together with her son for the first time in years
  • What her future looks like
  • Her personal message to parents suffering from parental alienation
  • Horse therapy
  • and much more
