Transition days. You know, the ones where your quiet, clean house suddenly turns into a full-blown chaos factory. Whether your stepkids are arriving for the weekend, the week, or every other Tuesday, transition days can bring stress, overstimulation, and a whole lot of feelings you didn’t expect. In this episode, Alicia is answering real questions submitted through her Instagram broadcast channel from stepmoms just like you who are trying to survive the emotional rollercoaster of blended family life.
From feeling totally withdrawn to dealing with a stepkid who “hates you” on day one, Alicia breaks down what’s normal (spoiler alert: a lot more than you think), how to communicate your needs to your partner without starting WWIII, and how to stop shrinking yourself just to keep the peace.
You’ll also hear how transition day stress affects your relationship, your mental health, and why a simple routine—yes, even just ordering Chinese food—can be the thing that brings everyone back to center.
