Stepfamily Dynamics 101 with The Smart Stepmom, Laura Petherbridge Ep. 397

I’m so pleased to introduce my personal stepmom coach, Laura Petherbridge, to the Love & Life family! Laura is an author, speaker, and coach. She specializes in supporting clients as they navigate the complexities of modern relationships. She works with couples, women, and single adults sharing with them what God has taught her as a childless stepmom. Laura shares truth fromScripture, along with wisdom from personal challenges. In part one of our conversation, Laura and I discuss all things stepfamily. Specifically, we tackle the following:• Expectations—those we realize we have and those that surprise us.• How bio parents perceive their children vs. how stepparents see their children. • The most important thing stepparents can do to help the family gel.• What bio parents need to understand about their spouse’s experience as a stepmother or stepfather.Join us for part 1 of our deep dive into stepfamily life!Laura Petherbridge, The Smart StepmomWebsite: https://www.thesmartstepmom.com/Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson
