Get Your Copy: The Stepmom’s Book of Boundaries
Stepmoms, moms and women who juggle both roles are all raving about the advice and insights found in Claudette Chenevert’s recent publication, The Stepmom’s Book of Boundaries: How and Where to Draw the Line—for a Happier, Healthier Stepfamily, available at Amazon and directly through the author’s website. Here are two entries from among the many she’s received:
“Retrospection and retooling are critical to healthy stepfamily relationships. Claudette knows this. The way she defines boundaries and expectations in her book sang to me!” – Lesley Kordella (Biologist & Stepmother)
“The Stepmom’s Book of Boundaries is an honest, straight-forward and truly useful guide that will benefit any parent.” – Sandy Fowler (Speaker, Coach, “Mighty Parenting” Co-Host & Mother)
Judging by the book’s cover alone, you know you’re in for a treat! (Yes, it’s a purposeful play on “The Brady Bunch” opening sequence.) Between a compelling foreward by StepMom Magazine Founder & Publisher Brenda Ockun and an appendix that includes thoughtfully crafted conversation starters and checklists, you’ll find in-depth information, tips and advice of real and lasting value to stepmoms and their families.
Following an introduction by the author, the magic continues to unfold in two parts which—like you and your partner—work together seamlessly to deliver a whole lotta hope and instruction for maximizing love and happiness.
