Adeola Kingsley-James
About this listen
The path of blended families is one that is laced with challenges, especially in a society such as ours that is heavily steeped in religion and culture—both of which are veritable tools of conditioning.
Adeola Kingsley-James bares it all in this explosive, jaunty, and ridiculously sincere book: Step Up Step Mum. She shares practical insights and first-hand experiences as a wife, mother, and step-mother in a blended family. The book contains 13 chapters of riveting storytelling and perspective that will serve as a playbook, especially for women who struggle with navigating the sometimes harsh terrains of blended families.
The pressure to perform and people-please usually drives step-mums into behaviors that do not serve them, their families, and the wider society. This book is a treasure-trove of wisdom and vulnerability in equal measure. Adeola literally left no stone unturned in ensuring that her mistakes become veritable learnings for others.

Marriage is mostly working on yourself and learning to deal with someone else’s imperfections. In this particular book, we are going to address a few of the most common, most important ones. First, the will and skill to forgive has made more people happier in their relationships than you can probably imagine. Next, one of our worst vices, the tendency to wrath, to explode in anger, is actually in all of us. So it’s one of the things that can make or break your marriage, and it relates to forgiveness as well.

In Everything Happens for a Reason, psychotherapist Mira Kirshenbaum helps us understand the principles behind this frequently used phrase and provides us with tools to grasp its true meaning.

In each of our lives we are faced with events that seem inexplicable, unjust, even cruel - events that can shatter our perception of the world, our understanding of ourselves, and our faith in a higher power.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 20
Children today live in an unpredictable, disruptive, and often violent world. Many of them live in two different homes with different sets of expectations. They face bullying at school and online. They hear news of school shootings, and racially or religiously motivated violence. They may have lost a friend or a loved one. As parents, the impulse to protect our children is strong, but that very protection can end up handicapping them for life. Rather than seek to save them from the hard things, parents must teach their kids how to cope with and rise above their problems.
