Awakening Worth in Childless Women

Send me a text and tell me what you're struggling with the most!

Are you feeling like you're navigating uncharted territory as a step-parent without any children of your own? I'm not a step-parent myself, but I've learned from my clients that it can be complicated with its own set of challenges and emotions.
Join me today as I interview Gail Miller, who is a life coach, maternal fetal medicine physician, TEDx speaker, founder of Path Onward Life Coaching, and step-parent.
Gail's journey of acceptance as a childless woman and step-parent is a testament of resilience and courage, a saga that will move, inspire, and empower you to challenge societal norms and live a fulfilling life despite some unique struggles.

• Gail's story through the ups and downs of caring for children who are not her own
• 3 tips for setting boundaries, handling expectations and cultivating a positive relationship with your stepchildren.
