In this episode, I am joined by my fiance Alan to discuss what it is like to integrate into a family as a step-parent.

We cover what it's like to suddenly find yourself with kids you never planned to have, some of the stigma and public reaction to dating a single mum, how coming from a blended family helped Alan become the step-dad he is today, and why we need to start unraveling some of the myths around what it's like to date a parent.  We also talk about the foundations of our family and ones like it that are not built on biology or material necessity.

This is for you if you are worried that no men will be interested in joining your family unit if you are concerned about public reception to dating a mum, or interested in how our family works.
