S2-E1: "What On Earth Are NACHO Kids?!" with Lori and David Sims

Blended family coaching team, Lori and David Sims are the creators of the Nacho Kids® method and the Nacho Kids Academy. After Lori and David found a way to come back from the brink of divorce and better their blend, they had to share it with the world! As a team, they bring both the male and female perspective to blended family issues. Their mission is to reduce the percentage of failed blended families by empowering stepparents with tools to save their relationship and their sanity by effectively using the Nacho Kids method. Their Nacho Kids method has been a blended family lifesaver for thousands of stepfamilies around the world! 

In this interview, Lori and David share with us their story of the origins of the Nacho Kids concept and the Nacho Kids Academy. They tell some of their struggles (including coming back from the very brink of divorce and also Lori's never-ending patience with David's "button-pushing" habits) as well as how they overcame then using the Nacho method. They also share some heartwarming stories of encouragement and inspiration from their blended family. Finally, we laughed a TON while recording this interview! If you're in a blended family and you're looking to laugh and learn, then this interview is an absolute must-listen!
