Stepdads need courage!
Navigating all the complexities, confusion, and common frustrations is not for the faint-hearted.
But it's not just courage stepdad's need, they also need community. Sure, lots of guys operate as if they can fix the challenges, untangle the complexities, and "be the hero" on their own — but most experience relief and reassurance when they discover they're not alone!
Our special guest, Mike Haney is on a mission to encourage stepdads and share what he's learned through almost 23 years of blending!
In this episode, I (Kim) will be interviewing two stepdads — my Mike and Mike Haney. Both of these men are experienced stepdads who've acquired loads of wisdom over more than two decades. They've learned from their mistakes and discovered some key elements every man needs to become the stepdad they really want to be!
If you're a stepdad (or you're married to one), you don't want to miss this insightful (and humorous) conversation.
