Rena Kutner: The Family You Step Into

Rena Kutner is a marriage and family therapist who specializes in blended families and second marriages - and she’s not just talking theory. She’s lived it, built it, and now helps others do the same.This week, Rena sits down with Penina for a conversation that touches everyone - whether you’re navigating a blended family, stepping into a partner’s world, or figuring out where you fit in a family that existed before you arrived.

We get into the real stuff: what you need to know before you blend, how kids experience it, the loyalty pulls, the small moments that make or break a home, and why everything you bring into a second marriage gets magnified.And then we bring in someone special.

Rayzee joins the conversation as a bonus kid who’s now grown and married - and she takes us back to what it was actually like at 16, navigating her blended family from the inside. Her perspective is honest, warm, and something you won’t want to miss.If you’ve ever had to earn your place in a family - or watched someone earn theirs - this one is for you.
