**This episode contains discussions on trying to conceive and vasectomies**
In this episode Katie talks to Jen. Jen's a Stepmum to two and a bio Mum to one. Jen is more than a decade into Stepmum life and has experienced so many ups and downs during her time as a Stepmum.
When Jen met her husband she didn't have children and as her husband had majority custody of her kids she became almost a full time Stepmum overnight. This enabled Jen to form a great bond with her Stepdaughter, and eventually her stepson who told her initially he felt he wasn't supposed to like her!
Katie and Jen talk about how much to give vs not treading on BioMum's toes and the huge anxiety that being a Stepmum can create.
Jen also bravely shares about how her husband eventually saw how he hadn't been supporting her and calling his kids out on their behaviour where he should have.
A wonderful chat with a BRILLIANT Stepmum!
