In this episode, I talk with Sylvester Baugh about step-parenting. Sylvester Baugh has been a stepparent for almost the entire life of his step-daughter who is now in her mid-twenties. He takes the concept of step-parenting and turns it on its head with Step-Up Parenting. He talks about the forever commitment that is made to a child, regardless of what happens in the adult relationship. Sylvester is also a coach, certified in Choice Theory and a Mental Freedom Practitioner. If you are a step-parent, you might want to check this out.

In this episode, I discuss how grandparenting can be the best gig in the world when conditions are ideal or it can be a large source of pain for some. We dive into six situations that might be causing pain--a child with physical or developmental challenges, when you disapprove of the parenting your grandchildren receive, when you don't get along with one or both of the parents, when unknown, unclear or mismatched expectations exist, when you must supplement your child's income so your grandchild gets what they need and when you have committed to taking physical and legal custody of your grandchild. Mental Freedom coaching can help. If interested, click bit.ly/MFCoaching. I also look at all the joys of grandparenting.
