My Favourite Tip #8: Repair After Those Ruptures

An important takeaway from the episode with Dr. Kate Owen on 'Setting Boundaries' was the idea of - meaning, when as a parent or stepparent you come up against a rupture (a disconnection) with someone in your blended family - say a stepchild - to know this is really normal and that no human relationship is without its challenges.Rather than worrying she says what is more important is to focus on the repair process and while it might be difficult to do, to really focus on rebuilding the relationship after the rupture has occurred in an empathic, warm and loving way.https://intheblend.com.au/podcast/dr-kate-owen-on-setting-boundaries/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
