Yes, It’s Your Time.  

Do you feel as though you don’t recognize yourself anymore?  What happened to that old ‘Me’?  Did my stepfamily life make ‘Me’ disappear and create this cranky, unhappy woman?

As stepmoms, Jenna and Barb understand.  They know and feel your pain.  As best selling authors and certified coaches who specialize in stepmother life, they created the retreat that they wish had been there for them.

It will be your chance to be with your peers in a sacred, non-judgmental and confidential space.  It is your time to breathe and take a real break.  Most importantly, Jenna and Barb will be teaching the philosophies and tools that will change you and your stepfamily.

Barb Goldberg, Certified Coach, M.B.A. studied with Dr. Martha Beck and became a certified life coach who specializes in stepfamilies. With degrees in education and a masters in business, she saw how these skill  sets could easily be applied to my stepmom toolbox. She seeks to share these best practices with other stepmoms so that they do not have to suffer one more moment. Her website The Evil Stepmother Speaks is a favorite among stepmothers (along with her Facebook page and weekly radio show of the same name). Her book, The Evil Stepmother Speaks:  A Guide for Stepfamilies Who Want to Love and Laugh, is a re-write of all fairy tales with the stepmother as the hero.  It is also a cherished resource for those who have read it.
