EP 59: Why You Should Stop Acting Like You're in a Nuclear Family

In order to be a happy, successful stepmom, you MUST stop acting like you are in a nuclear family. In today's episode, I'm making my case with 5 specific reasons: 

1) Your role and position in the family are often unclear, unlike in a nuclear family. 

2) Stepfamilies lack the time to develop shared norms, rules and culture. 

3) Not all parents in a stepfamily back each other up. 

4) Stepchildren don't need another original parent; as a stepmom, you should find a unique role. 

5) Your partner has different emotional layers and feelings compared to a nuclear family. 

I share personal stories and client examples to illustrate these points, emphasizing the need for stepmoms to reframe their mindset and approach, to create the stepmom life they deserve.
