#108: When You Can’t Step Back: Managing Stepmom Stress in the Heat of the Moment


Listen Later

What do you do when someone says, "Just take a break," but you're knee-deep in dinner, the ex is texting, your stepkid is criticizing your cooking, and you’re one eye twitch away from totally losing it?

In this episode of The Stepmom Side Podcast, Alicia is getting real about how to handle stress when stepping back isn’t an option. Spoiler: she’s not about to suggest you go meditate in the pantry—unless that’s the only room with a door that locks.

You’ll walk away with practical tools to regulate your emotions in the moment, ride the emotional storm without burning your house down (literally or metaphorically), and talk about the aftermath without spiraling into a fight. This is the stress survival guide every stepmom needs.
