Episode 15- Assessing the Side Effects of Divorce: An Honest Conversation with a Stepmom & Her Stepson

In this episode of Call the Nurse, Mindie sits down with her stepson, Adin, for an honest and thoughtful conversation about growing up, family change, and finding your footing through divorce. We talk about what it was like being raised by a successful, surgeon dad, how their father-son relationship has evolved over time, and the lessons learned—both the ones taught intentionally and the ones absorbed quietly along the way. Adin shares his experience navigating divorce as a kid, blending families, and adjusting to new dynamics with humility and insight beyond his years. We also touch gently on sibling bonds, what it’s like watching someone you love struggle, and how those moments shape empathy, resilience, and emotional maturity. This episode offers perspective for: • Parents navigating divorce with teens • Teens who feel caught in the middle • Families learning how to blend with grace • Anyone who wants to better understand the emotional impact of family transitions This conversation isn’t about blame or perfection—it’s about listening to voices that often go unheard. 🩺 Because not all healing is clinical, and not all stories make it into the chart. 🎙️Connect with Mindie!
