]]> Destiny’s story is so inspiring and is laced with a love you can feel while hearing her share her story.

It’s all to common for Stepmoms to go ‘all in’ only to have circumstances out of their control dictate outcomes no one saw coming.

In her book ‘Blended Up’ she finds a way to express the love her Step Sons share with her. It’s a beautiful work and a story I believe will resonate with many listeners.
