  • Blended Blessings: Episode 8: Communication is Key
    May 31 2024

    In this episode, we dive into ways we work to effectively communicate with each other, with God, with our children and even with exes.

    We feel daily communication is essential, not only to a marriage, but also towards your relationship with God.

    Healthy communication is also the key to building healthy relationships with your children and creating appropriate boundaries on social media, with anyone you co-parent with and finally, with anyone who is not a positive light in your life.

    While it is not always easy to relate to children, specifically ones that are not your own; we offer a few suggestions and also provide ways you can develop a strong, healthy relationship that is not only nurturing, but also provides your children an appropriate outlet that can last a lifetime.

  • Blended Blessings: Episode 7: Are You Building the Best, or Living with Toxic Ties?
    May 17 2024

    We just read a meme that says, "A perfect marriage is just two imperfect people, who refuse to give up on each other."

    We need to ask ourselves, are the people in our life supporting the best version of us, or are they creating toxic ties that always seem to unravel our day? Now we must ask ourselves, if the person that comes to mind was some random stranger, would we allow them the freedom to walk all over us, to control and manipulate every aspect of our existence?

    We believe in doing everything possible to salvage a marriage, or any relationship for that matter, and we believe family comes first. With that said, there are just some people in our lives, who we don't need dragging us down.

    In this episode, we talk about identifying those people that are simply "downers", and strengthening the relationships with those who are "uppers". Just as a healthy marriage relies on imperfections and bases itself on a refusal to fail; our relationship with God never wavers. As we learn to put Him first, and to rely on His direction, He helps us to navigate the ups and downs of daily living and allows us to live in freedom. He truly is greater than the highs and the lows.

    Join us this week as we work toward building a support system, while also distancing or possibly cutting toxic ties.

  • Blended Blessings: Episode 6: Making a Marriage Work
    May 3 2024

    In this episode, we talk about what we feel a healthy marriage consists of. We go into the five love languages, prioritizing your spouse, working together in ministry, incorporating God into your marriage and even some of the common misconceptions (50/50, you complete me, etc). We believe, a healthy marriage involves 3, and that God must be the center in order for any relationship to last. Please join us as we discuss the do's and don'ts of marriage, what works for us, and even ways we need to work to improve our own marriage.
