S1 Episode 18 STEPARENT How to Stepparent a Grieving Stepchild: interview with author Diane Fromme Jan 30, 2018

Show notes

Do you think your kids are grieving? You may be surprised to hear the answer.

Because we(the adults) are happy to have found love again, doesn't mean that our kids feel the same way! The stepfamily journey can be very difficult. Part of that journey that no one likes to talk about is the subject of grief…especially with our kids. Gil and Brenda interviewed Diane Fromme, author of Stepparenting the Grieving Child. Diane brings practical tools and insights that can help this part of your journey! You can find her at http://www.dianefromme.com/

S1 Episode 17 STEP PARENTING Criticize or Compliment? Jan 23, 2018

Show notes

Boy, is this a Stepfamily hot button! Gil and Brenda ask each other, “How do you feel when I criticize your kids?” The mama/papa bear can easily come out in these conversations! Defenses come up, words are said that are not meant, and the wall that you have built to come behind and protect you and your marriage is now between you.

On the flip side, “How do you feel when I compliment your kids?” Ahhh, connection happens, empathy is shared, and as a parent, you feel like you are doing a good job.

Does this all sound familiar? Learn how THOSE PEOPLE (your kids…no matter their age) impact your marriage!

S1 Episode 16 MARRIAGE 5 Reasons to Avoid a Counselor Jan 16, 2018

Show notes

Gil and Brenda had attended a weekend retreat for Counselors. The subject, EFT, Emotional Focused Therapy and Inter-Subjectivity. They had the opportunity to interview two Counselors, Fay DeMeyer and Jeremiah Winston. It was a lively discussion on the counseling profession! Sometimes we need a little check-up for a check-in. How are we doing as individuals? This will directly impact how we interact with our spouse, family, and others. If we haven't dealt with our “stuff” it will tend to spill onto others. One key nugget: what developmental phases were missed or not nurtured as we were children?

How does that affect who we are today?
