Love doesn’t always arrive neatly or on schedule. This week on Just Between Us, Jennifer is joined by Jennifer Rock and Jill Deering to talk about building a family that doesn’t fit the traditional script. From parenting young and navigating small-town scrutiny, to coming out later in life and becoming a stepmother in your 30s, they share what it really takes to blend lives with care. They open up about co-parenting with ex-partners, putting kids first, and learning to do the work even when relationships change shape. It’s a warm, honest conversation about choosing kindness, earning trust slowly, and trusting that love can still be full and meaningful when it takes an unexpected path.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
