If you’re a Type A, high-achieving woman who suddenly felt like she lost her footing after becoming a stepmom — this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Stepmom Side Podcast, Alicia speaks directly to driven, control-loving, people-pleasing women who were thriving before blended family life… and now feel anxious, resentful, burned out, or completely out of control.

Alicia breaks down the common pitfalls Type A stepmoms don’t see coming, including over-functioning, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional burnout. She also explains what’s actually happening beneath the surface — and how to start letting go of control without losing confidence or identity.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why Type A and perfectionist women struggle more as stepmoms
• How over-functioning leads to resentment in blended families
• Why people-pleasing makes stepmoms feel invisible in their own homes
• How control becomes a false sense of safety....and more!

This episode is a must-listen for stepmoms who are exhausted from managing everyone else’s emotions and ready to stop trying to “fix” blended family life.
