Pod By Pen

There’s a version of success that looks right from the outside and still leaves you empty — and Micky Klein knows that feeling intimately. This week, the confidence and lifestyle consultant behind More By Me joins Pod by Pen to talk about the cycle she kept living inside, the season that changed everything, and what it actually took to become someone new. Micky opens up about leaving behind the identity she’d built, learning to trust herself again, and what she now teaches women every day about carrying themselves with confidence. This one’s a masterclass in reinvention — for anyone who’s ever felt like they were performing a life instead of living one.Follow Micky: @more_by.me For sponsorships & inquiries:podbypen ⁨@gmail.com⁩ Follow for more: @penkunstler @podbypen

Rena Kutner is a marriage and family therapist who specializes in blended families and second marriages - and she’s not just talking theory. She’s lived it, built it, and now helps others do the same.This week, Rena sits down with Penina for a conversation that touches everyone - whether you’re navigating a blended family, stepping into a partner’s world, or figuring out where you fit in a family that existed before you arrived. We get into the real stuff: what you need to know before you blend, how kids experience it, the loyalty pulls, the small moments that make or break a home, and why everything you bring into a second marriage gets magnified.And then we bring in someone special. Rayzee joins the conversation as a bonus kid who’s now grown and married - and she takes us back to what it was actually like at 16, navigating her blended family from the inside. Her perspective is honest, warm, and something you won’t want to miss.If you’ve ever had to earn your place in a family - or watched someone earn theirs - this one is for you.Rena Kutner | Marriage & Family Therapist | Blended Families & Second Marriages [email protected] Sponsorships & Inquiries:@podbypen | [email protected]
