Publisher's Synopsis
Stepping Up is more than a guide - it's a heartfelt tribute to the men who step into fatherhood not by blood, but by choice. With honesty, compassion, and deep insight, Lisa Rogers offers encouragement, wisdom, and practical tools for every stepdad navigating the often overlooked and emotionally complex journey of loving someone else's child.
Whether you're new to the role or have been walking this path for years, this book provides real-world guidance on building trust, navigating blended family dynamics, supporting your partner, and finding your place in a home that may not have started with you - but now depends on you.
Inside, you'll find:
Real letters from stepdads who have walked the journey
Affirmations for the hard days and the hopeful ones
Practical chapters on co-parenting, discipline, family traditions, and more
A deeply personal letter from the author to her husband - a stepdad who chose love every day
Stepping Up is for the man who chose to love. Who chose to stay. Who chose to lead with patience and presence. It's a reminder that stepdads aren't secondary - they're essential.
