When Betsy Graziani Fasbinder married more than 30 years ago, she committed to more than a husband. She inherited a son, whose mother had died far too young.Unlike blended families of divorce, Betsy had to navigate her new family's grief and her own desire to be included as a mother. Journaling and writing helped.  Today, that writing is Filling Her Shoes:  A Memoir of an Inherited Family.You will learn:Love and loss, grief and gratitude can coexist.Journaling can help not simply to remember events but to facilitate better perspective and responses in the moment.Step-parenting might be better termed step-in parenting, designed to augment rather than replace the first parent.BIO:Betsy Graziani Fasbinder is a writing  and speaking coach, an award-winning author of three books, and the podcast host of The Morning Glory Project.To connect with Betsy and her work, find her at https://www.BetsyGrazianiFasbinder.comLizbeth’s links Support the podcast and Lizbeth's writing for $2 or $5 a month on Patreon HEREOR Buy Lizbeth a Coffee Lizbeth's memoir Pieces of Me: Rescuing My Kidnapped Daughters is now a TV movie, #Stolen By Their Father on Lifetime, now streaming on Roku, Vudu, Hulu, and Amazon Prime.Lizbeth's second book, Grounded in Grit: Turn Your Challenges Into Superpowers is available to order wherever books are sold!
