Step by Step, You Will Find Your Place
Description
In this deeply honest episode, I sit down with Alex Willumsen — the voice behind Step by Step Brighton — a UK-based stepmum who supports women navigating stepfamily life, particularly those who are childless not by choice.
Alex opens up about the heartbreak of infertility, the emotional toll of raising someone else’s children, and what it’s like to be seen as a “mum figure” while silently grieving the child she never had. We also talk about identity, high-conflict bio mums, and the unspoken tension between biological and childless stepmums.
This episode is for any woman who’s ever questioned her role, her worth, or whether she belongs in the motherhood space.
💞 One step at a time, you will find your place.
