The KICK-ASS Stepmom Podcast

The internet went wild with hate recently on a post from the podcast where Darren and I told a story about the stepkids not being allowed to hang out in our bedroom. So today, I’m responding. I’ll read some of the comments I received from trolls, give my thoughts on the haters, and answer the question - is it okay to feel different about your stepkids and your biological kids?  This experience is going to change my content. I’m going to get more raw and real in this space. If there’s a polarizing topic you’d like me to cover on this podcast, shoot me a DM!  Get The Disengaging Without Disconnecting Masterclass www.jamiescrimgeour.com/disengaging  Work With Me. www.jamiescrimgeour.com/coaching  Get My Ebook -  120 Ways To Be A KICK-ASS Stepmom www.jamiescrimgeour.com/ebook  Episode Sponsors:  LMNT | My Go To Electrolyte Drink.

Boundaries are extremely important to implement and hold in your relationships, but in my years as a stepmom coaching I’ve come to find that many people misunderstand what boundaries are.  Boundaries are not about controlling another person - they are about communicating your needs and preferences in regards to how people treat you. Good boundaries should get you closer to the dynamic you need in your relationship, not further away from it.  Today, Darren and I are diving into boundaries that stepmoms have submitted. You’ll hear boundary talk about:  Kids in the bedroom  Sending memes to the ex  Constant communication with the ex  Kids dropping by unannounced outside of the custody agreement   Driving the step kids to bio mom’s house to pick up things they forgot  Sitting with the ex at events Work with Jamie:  www.jamiescrimgeour.com/coaching  Join Elevate:  www.jamiescrimgeour.com/elevate  Thanks to our sponsors: LMNT | My Go To Electrolyte Drink.
