More ways to listen:
If you're feeling stuck in a blended family marriage that’s filled with constant conflict, emotional disconnection, or overwhelming stress, you're not alone—and you're not without hope.
Wes and Jennie were right where you are. Ten kids, a new marriage, and the chaos of the pandemic had pushed them into survival mode. Their arguments were frequent and intense. Their connection was fading fast. And they had no idea how to move forward.
But instead of giving up, they chose to reach out for help.
That’s when they found us—and together, we walked through a proven coaching process that provided them with tools to reconnect, resolve conflicts, and build a strong foundation in their marriage. In this episode, you’ll hear the breakthroughs they experienced and how they transformed not only their relationship but their entire family dynamic.
You'll also hear the amazing update four years later—including BIG wins in building genuine connections with their kids, becoming grandparents, and a special first-time experience as a family.
Listen in and be encouraged! You can experience transformation too. All it takes is one brave step forward.
