If you're ready to get some help navigating blended family life and explore new ways to improve things in your relationship — but your partner isn't interested…

…this episode is for YOU!

10 years into our marriage, we were not on the same page about getting help.  We were facing an unknown future and Mike wanted us to get professional help — but I (Kim) wasn't willing to do anything new. 

This was an extremely difficult season for us and we almost didn't make it to the other side.

In this episode, we'll share our story and encourage you to hold onto hope! 

We've got 6 practical steps to help you open up communication, create more connection and invite your spouse into a conversation about how you might move forward — TOGETHER!

We'll help you to build a bridge of common goals with your spouse and share what worked for us — and what didn't work!

If you're feeling hopeless about how to approach your spouse about getting practical support — join us to discover how you can move forward!

You'll Discover:

  • How to initiate a conversation with your spouse that'll help them open up and identify what they really want for your relationship and family

  • Ways to focus on common ground and goals to begin the process of working together in reaching your goals

  • How to ask good questions while building a bridge toward those things you both want more of in your relationship (and less of)

  • How to invite your spouse to explore possibilities for growth - together
