Episode 002 - The importance of normalising blended family life for you & your child

The importance of normalising blended family life for parents & children is at the heart of this episode. We live in a society where there is still a perception around what a 'normal' family should look like and talk through how we manage this narrative for ourselves as parents and for our children. 

Episode show notes:

• Normalising blended families for our children through the stigma of divorce

• Creating a space of safety for your child(ren) as they navigate blended life and helping them cope with diversity
• Behavioural signs to look out for that your child(ren) need support
• Normalising blended family life through the lens of a parent - let go of the guilt, stop making excuses for the other parent & lean into your tribe of support
• Acknowledge and understand the identify shift of your family
