#94: How To Handle It When Your Partner Just Doesn’t Get It and You're A Stepmom


Listen Later

Ever poured your heart out to your partner, only to get blank stares or the dreaded “You’re overreacting”?

In this episode of The Stepmom Side Podcast, Alicia breaks down the emotional disconnect so many stepmoms feel in their relationship — and how to get your partner to finally understand your experience (without it turning into World War III).

From validation to communication shifts, Alicia shares the mindset tweaks and scripts that help you feel seen instead of silenced.

If you’ve been feeling emotionally isolated, unsupported, or like you’re living in a completely different world than your partner — this episode is your permission slip to stop carrying it all alone.

Key Highlights:

  • Why your partner struggles to understand your experience as a stepmom
  • The real goal of communication (it’s not just about being right)
  • Scripts that open conversations instead of starting fights
  • What to do when you’ve said it all… and they still don’t get it
  • How to protect your emotional peace while staying connected
