Welcome to Live Well Anyway. I'm your host, McKenzie Kappa.

On this podcast, we journey together in learning how to feel healthy, look good, and plan lives we actually like in the midst of all the everyday chaos.

I'm so glad you're here. In today's episode, it's actually a little bit of a

departure from the norm. I actually have on Hot Boyfriend's Daughter Sophia today. And we are

talking all about how we have formed our relationship over the years. We've almost known each other

for four years. what that's looked

like, how that evolved over time, how we have bonded and been able to blend our families together.

And we also talk about how we have tackled puberty together because I came into her life

right at that time when everything was changing and have been a big

part of her learning about things and figuring things out.

And it has been such an honor to go through all of that with her.

But we just get into it today.

We talk about all of it, hear it from the kid perspective, which I think can be really

helpful for anyone else

who might be walking through this of needing to blend families or bond with a tween, teen

girl. I think that this conversation will shed some light on how we've done it and maybe be

helpful. Or if you're just listening for the fun of it,

hopefully it can be entertaining too. It's a little bit shorter episode than normal, but I thought

it would just be nice to have her on and talk about all of that. But before we get there,

I did want to mention that in just over a week, I am having my holistic planning boot camp

from August 26th to August 30th.

Now, if you're wondering what this is, we are going to have live video sessions every day.
