S3: Episode 21: When a stepmom chooses sanity over control, let's chat the D word with guest, Michaele-Lynne

Christina chats with Michaele-Lynne, a stepmom to two teenage girls and a mom to her 3 year-old ours baby. Michaele-Lynne discusses her battle between disengaging and being a people pleaser, and how writing about stepmotherhood has helped her process the hard times and the good times. We chat the teen years, hands-off discipline, and raising an ours baby. What helps us grow through what we go through? Listen in!
