The Stepmom Who Thought 'Nachoing' Meant Ignoring

"At first, I thought Nachoing meant just ignoring my stepkids, but Nacho Kids Academy taught me that it’s really about setting boundaries, respecting my role, and creating a healthier family dynamic. Once I stepped back, I was shocked at how much better my marriage and my relationship with my stepkids became. It turns out, they actually like me better when I’m not trying to parent them!" ~ Amanda R.
