​

The Blended Family Success One Day Workshop is a safe place for you and

your partner to talk about those tricky topics you know need to be

addressed but fear of conflict prevents you from raising them.

You'll quickly learn that other couples are facing the exact same challenges; the

issues no longer seem so scary, but rather quite normal.

​

Regardless of what you have gone through to date, your past does not

determine your potential, or your future.  Couples who get professional help

and information on how to overcome the challenges of blending families, can

significantly increase their chance of success.

​

Attend the Blended Family Success One Day Workshop and give yourself the best chance possible to succeed.  You’ll learn how to unite with your partner, resolve issues, help your children adjust and enjoy family life together.

​

Workshops are suitable for a couple preparing to blend through to those who have been living together many years. 

Couples prefer a one day workshops because it creates the opportunity to set aside a focused time frame to explore issues without getting caught up in the distraction of everyday life.  

​

Having your partner alongside you creates the opportunity for you both to implement the tools provided and work together to further the best interests of your couple relationship and the children in your family.

​

Regardless of where you’re at you’ll go away feeling equipped, refreshed and inspired towards success.  The workshop is only one day but can have a far reaching positive impact on your family's life for many years to come. It's been described as "very positive and uplifting"!

​

Many parents in a blended family will tell you children put loyalties to the test. 

 

A child’s adjustment can have a profound impact on the pressure couples face.  

 

With the failure rate being rather high (over 60%, most within the first few years) it is vital for couples to invest time into helping their child manage the transition.
