FC 012: Did I Bite Off More Than I Can Chew? - Guest: Izzy Rose (November 23, 2009)
Life is full of surprises. But when you marry a man with children and become a stepmom, you may find that the ride you signed on for is the Turn My Life Upside Down variety. In this podcast I talk with Izzy Rose, author of "The Package Deal: My (not-so) Glamorous Transition from Single Gal to Instant Mom" (Three Rivers Press 2009). Izzy chronicles the first tumultuous year of her marriage which involved quitting her career, moving from San Francisco to Texas, and becoming a full time mom to her two step sons.
