Description

In this episode, Alicia is here to lovingly snatch you out of your spiral with a bold-but-needed reminder: You’re not that special. (And yes, that’s the best news you’ll hear today.)

Because if you’ve ever thought you were the only stepmom feeling like an outsider, overwhelmed by an ex, or questioning how the hell you ended up in this role—you’re absolutely not alone.

Alicia shares her personal experience with outsider syndrome and challenges the toxic lies stepmoms tell themselves like:

  • “No one else deals with this”
  • “I’m never going to be enough”
  • “Everyone else has it together but me”

Through truth-telling, pep-talking, and community wisdom, this episode reminds you that you’re not crazy, not alone, and definitely not the only one Googling “how to get divorced” in the Target parking lot.

Tune in to hear:

  • Why your stepmom struggles are more common than you think
  • How to stop believing the shamey BS in your brain
  • The difference between “blending in” and actually belonging
  • And why getting in community with other stepmoms might change your life
