In previous newsletters I have mentioned that I have a brand new stepfamily support group set up at the link below. You can join this group for free and gain access to other members who are probably experiencing the same things you are going through. This community has a forum where you can post questions and comments. You can recieve "just in time" answers to problems that pop up or just vent a little! At one time or another we have all been there and done that; maybe you are going through the very same thing that I made it through last year.
This support group has a question and answer telephone event set up for May 1 of this year. Questions will be answered by Dr. Nicole Weyant who is the founder of the International Stepfamily Foundation. I am a member of her staff, so if you and I can't come up with a way to solve a stepfamily issue, we could put the problem in her qualified hands!

This month I am offering five families four months of coaching at no cost. Contact me if you are interested in taking advantage of this special offer. The only thing I ask for in payment is a written testimonial if you are happy with my services and you are free to terminate this arrangement at any time. The different elements of the strategy I wrote about in the featured article are difficult to maintain over a long period of time. Sometimes having an "accountability partner" is what it takes to keep that resolve going. As your coach, that is one way that we could work together to make the strategy you and your ex put in place keep on working. This offer is the perfect way for you to take advantage of the teaching a good coach can provide over an extended periodof time. No matter where you live, we can work together over the telephone once a week and use email daily if necessary. Surely we can make some progress by working with each other every day and every week for the next four months. I would love to help the first five families who contact me. There have been many people who have selflessly given help to me and this is my way of paying it forward! At the end of the day, your stepfamily success is mine.
