Blended Families: The Wolfpack Way
Blended Families: The Wolfpack Way
How to build safety, belonging, and leadership in modern blended homes.
This book helps parents, step-parents, co-parents, and caregivers understand the nervous-system dynamics that sit beneath behaviour, conflict, loyalty binds, and emotional overwhelm in blended families.
You will learn:
• Why blended families trigger deeper fears, loyalties, and survival patterns
• How to regulate before reacting
• How to parent and step-parent without walking on eggshells
• How to stabilise a home with multiple histories and nervous systems
• How to reduce conflict across homes
• How to build belonging without replacing anyone
• How to become an aligned leadership team
• How to rebuild trust and repair loyalty after rupture
• How to create a home culture that feels safe for every person inside it
This is not a book about perfection.
It is a map for emotional leadership — the kind that protects relationships instead of fracturing them.
Written through lived experience and trauma-informed psychosocial practice by Jyee Byrne, founder of Wolfpack Support Services.
