Stepping Back, Setting Boundaries and Blending with an Ours Baby or Two

Update: 2025-03-30

Description

Blended family life isn’t always smooth sailing, and today’s guest, Erika, knows that firsthand. In this episode, she opens up about the reality of step-parenting with a high-conflict bio mum in the mix, the challenges of co-parenting, and why she chose to disengage to protect her peace.

We also talk about adding an ‘ours’ baby into the dynamic—how it shifted relationships, what she wishes she had known beforehand, and how she’s making it work.

If you’re a stepmother struggling with boundaries, co-parenting drama, or just trying to find balance in it all, this episode is for you!
