Manifest The Best For Your Blended Family

"Any circumstance you find yourself in is only temporary and can change in an instant. Your attitude and state of mind is the steering wheel of your life, what you think about and project into a situation intensifies and eventually manifests in real life. Meet every circumstance with a positive outlook and when setbacks come - hold the course! The dawn WILL break!"- Jackson Kiddard.

And if all else fails, there is always vodka! ;)

ATTENTION STEP PARENTS: This too shall pass! ;) Everyday I am flooded with emails from people all over the world who share so many of the same concerns, one of the most common questions is: How in the hell is my marriage ever going to survive trying to BLEND my family????

My answer is always the same: I don't friggin' know...why do you think I started this movement? So you could tell me! ;) Jokes baby...jokes.

With 50% of all marriages and a whopping 67% of all second marriages ending in divorce, we enter into family blending armed with the knowledge that in all likelihood, our relationship is doomed to fail! Well, I don't know about you but I'm not giving in that easily. I found my Superman, the man of my dreams, love of my life; and the fact that our 5, yes, FIVE kids all had their own pre-teen and teen aged angst and dramas unfolding and had agendas of their own; was NOT going to derail my new husband and I from living a life of love and peace. Besides, we certainly didn't want to drag our children through ANOTHER failed marriage! 


We needed a strong support group for blended families, so we created one!

Accepting that there are certain things we just can't change (a narcissistic ex wife for instance, who turns the children against you and tells horrible lies about you and their own flesh and blood father in an effort to wreck any chance you may have had at a loving household....hypothetically speaking, of course....), inexcusable, disgusting behavior like that....We can't control it! We can't control what other people do. We can only control our own thoughts and actions. If what you think about and project into a situation intensifies and eventually manifests in real life~ WHY ALLOW POISON TO MANIFEST!??! 

Take your power back, put all of you energy into building that strong, unbreakable bond with your partner and know that one day....the children will grow up and move out and have lives of their own. But, if you dump your partner because you couldn't get through the utter BS that was drummed up by outsiders who hate themselves so much they can't stand to see you happy...you will grow very old...all alone....and die. The end. OR, you control what you can, do the best you can, be the bigger, better person, teach your children well, hold tight to your true love through the tunnel of chaos and manifest this: It's Never Too Late To Live Happily Ever After!  You are The Queen of Your Castle, Owner of Your Feelings, A Work in Progress! xoxo Mrs. G ;)
