As a step parenting expert and advisor to parenting coaches, Maria Natapov shares with us how being a child to divorced parents and now a step parent herself has given her a full toolkit of understanding and empathy towards her own step daughter and the struggles she faced as a child of abuse.
In this episode we dive into:

- Maria’s personal journey of trauma from a narcissistic relationship which led to divorce
- important relationship aspects in blended families
- understanding & supporting children’s emotions
- cultivating healthy connection in blended families
- recognizing how abusive behavior affects a child and how they ‘react’
- supporting a child experiencing abuse
- self responsible parenting
- being available and open to create emotional safety in a household
- and so much more!

Maria has developed a signature 4-step energy-focused process combined with Rapid Resolution modality, which helps families transition from chaos to harmony. She has helped numerous blended families foster more harmonious family dynamics through her VIP Stepparenting Breakthrough support model and her podcast, Synergistic Stepparenting.
