Christina welcomes Jessica to hear her perspective on being a full-time stepmom, mom and having an ours baby. What have been her own challenges and areas for growth sharing custody of her kids? How has she adapted to full time stepmom life, and what advice does she give others? Christina and Jessica chat about “fairness” between siblings, being called “mom”. In this episode we talk about the messy, beautiful, and rewarding experience of step-parenting full-time—so join us as we unpack it all!
About My Guest:
Hey I’m Jessica Richter - wife, mom of 3 and step mom to 4, and Mental Health Therapist. I’m here to share my journey as a stepmom, but more importantly, as a full-time parent. In this space, we’ll explore the unique challenges of raising children who aren’t biologically yours, while balancing that role with being a mom to your own biological kids. It’s a tough job—being the full-time caregiver, making all the decisions, managing all the emotions—yet still carrying the title of “just the step mom.”
