Step Parents and Blended Families Get Much Needed Support with Amy Stone - S6 E44

Becoming Parents Podcast · Jan 10, 2023 · 40m

* I married a man who had been divorced and already had 2 young children.

* We talked about kids before we committed to marriage. We pretty quickly added two more kids to our blended family.

* Our first baby was my first and his third baby.

* I had expectations about family life and motherhood that turned out to not match my reality. Both as a mom and a stepmom.

* Today I am a life coach who supports stepparents and adults in a blended family to help them get to happiness faster. One of the things that I help people with is the emotions that go with what is called "our" babies.

Amy is a life…
