A rockstar journalist navigates stepmom life in real time

Today I'm talking to Jamie Yuccas, Emmy-Award-winning journalist - and stepmom. I first met Jamie a few months ago when she reached out to cover The Stepmom Summit for KCAL/CBS News Los Angeles. I enjoyed chatting with her so much I knew we had to have her on the podcast!
