“I feel safe venting here”

I love that you pre-screen every member of the group. In most groups, I wouldn’t dare share my story, out of fear of it getting back to someone in my family, or worse, his ex. Here, I feel safe venting and asking for support. Thank you!

Your Private Escape

You decide who joins your group. Want to make sure the ex doesn’t get in? You can do that.

No worries about members screen shotting what you write & sending it to the ex. Your hubby. Or your stepkids (true story).

What happens in this group, stays in this group.

Finally, the focus is on you

We do so much behind the scenes. Because if we step out on stage, the ex won’t like that.

In this group, it’s about us & our experiences. We validate each other and offer empathy (and, ok, sometimes unsolicited advice).

We help each other replace our painful interpretations with an uplifting accurate interpretation.

“It reminds me I’m not alone”

When I 1st joined this group. I was skeptical about it. I was afraid it would turn out to be like every other mom group. Judgmental and harsh. I took the risk and figured I could cancel if needed. I want to thank those of you who who have shared your struggles, even if only to vent. Blended families can be so hard and being a stepmom is one of the most challenging roles I’ve had. Some days, I read your stories and think I’ve been there, and most importantly, it reminds me I’m not alone. Thank you.

Make new virtual BFFs

Although, we have a large community, you’ll be grouped with Stepmoms, just like you.

I’ll get to know you through an online assessment, and match you up with your new BFFs. In a small, secret Group.

They’ll know what you need, because it’s what they need.

Master new skills

Are you a victim of self-sabotage? Most of us are.

Do you need help saying no? Responding to toxic people?

Get on the same page with your husband?

We’ll walk you thru setting house rules, boundaries, self-care routines & personality typing members of your family

“A supportive community”

I just want to take a moment to thank you all for your honesty. I’ve never posted before but I read the posts often, and it reminds me that I’m not alone. This role is filled with challenges, drama and lots of emotion. Both good and bad. It can feel very lonely at times. I love and appreciate that this is a supportive community.

Wait, we haven’t met

I bet we have a lot in common…

Raise your hand if you feel like an outsider in your own home. Or if you willingly put yourself last in hopes of keeping the peace.

Nod your head if your feelings get hurt when your stepchild pushes you away.

Stomp your feet if you’ve heard his ex’s words coming out of your stepchild’s mouth.

I get it. Heck, I’ve been there. It’s not as if you’re asking for too much.

You want your marriage to be a priority.

To be respected as the female head of your household. Like a 1st wife is, gosh darn’t!

Most importantly, YOU JUST WANT TO BE HAPPY.

Well, good news, you CAN be happy.

While every stepmom journey is unique, there’s a framework to help guide you through the process of raising a healthy stepfamily.

And we’ll take you through that process within our group.
