Imposter Syndrome in Stepmotherhood: The Emotional Truth

Imposter syndrome doesn’t just show up at work—it shows up at home too, especially in stepmotherhood. In this episode, I’m joined by guest host Lauren Weeks, a long-distance stepmom, to have an honest, validating conversation about imposter syndrome as a stepmom and the quiet doubts so many stepmothers carry.We explore what it feels like to love children you don’t live with full-time, question your role in a family you joined later, and wonder if you truly belong. Lauren shares her experience navigating long-distance stepmotherhood, emotional distance, comparison, and the pressure to “get it right” when you’re not always physically present.LinksTiktok - http://www.tiktok.com/@UCiE9Xaaf9NlhTAHLgO2xVoQ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thestepparentingnetwork
