  • Redefining Strong: FEEL To Heal With Ashley Bernardi

    How many times in your life have you put on a smile and pretended you were fine, when really, your inner world was filled with chaos and grief?

    Special guest Ashley Bernardi, author of the transformational book, Authentic Power: Give Yourself Permission To Feel, takes us through her own journey of pretending her way through life... until she couldn't anymore.

    Ashley shares intimate details of intense phases of grief throughout her lifetime, and how her own disconnection from her emotions caused severe physical illness that nearly cost her her life.

  • Why Kids Need More Sleep (& how to make it happen): Interview w Dana Obleman

    One of the biggest issues many stepmoms of young stepkids face is navigating the bedtime struggle.

    Different rules by each parent can almost guarantee a sleep disruption when kids transition back and forth between their homes.

    Guilt and a sense of missing out on parenting time can create the urge to keep kids up late in order to spend more time with them.

    Fear of coming across as too strict or harsh can prevent some parents from implementing and enforcing a structured bedtime.

    The reasons behind poor sleep in kids of stepfamilies are complex and multifaceted. But why is it so important to give our kids the sleep they need? And more importantly, how can you break bad sleep habits that have been created unintentionally, and replace them with nourishing and restorative sleep patterns?

    Special guest Dana Obleman shares her take this week.

    Dana began her private practice in Vancouver, Canada in 2003. After struggling with her own child’s sleep, she drew on her dual degrees in Psychology and Education to create The Sleep Sense™ Program, a complete sleep resource for parents which has sold over 100,000 copies in more than 30 countries. 

    Since writing The Sleep Sense Program, she has authored an additional four books on specific parenting challenges. Over 100,000 individuals follow her on Facebook and Instagram, her instructional YouTube videos have over 3.5 million views, her parenting blog and website average 90,000 unique visitors per month, and her weekly podcast has over half a million downloads. 

    She has been a featured speaker at major parenting trade shows, a frequent guest on radio and television programs, and her work has been highlighted on Good Morning America, CNN, Today’s Parent, WebMD, The Washington Post, and many other prominent media publications. She has personally trained a global network of over 300 Certified Sleep Sense™ Consultants to carry on her work in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Sweden, Namibia, Finland, and the United Kingdom, as well as the United States and Canada. Today, Dana lives in Sarasota, Florida with her husband and 3 children, where she continues her life’s work to educate and empower families with healthy sleep habits

  • 3. The 5 STEPS To Happily Blended [Uplifted Stepmom]

    If you're like most stepmoms who've finished Parts 1 and 2, then you're probably starting to wonder... HOW?!
    HOW can you take what you've learned about yourself in Parts 1 and 2, and use that to begin making real, lasting changes in your stepfamily?
    In Part 1, you answered 12 questions to determine whether self-awareness work is a missing component in your blending process.
    If you determined that YES, the development of self-awareness IS, in fact, directly related to how connected your stepfamily relationships are, AND, to how much peace, happiness and personal fulfillment you currently have...
    You moved on to Part 2, where you began to peel the onion, and get crystal clear on where, exactly, the suffering in your stepfamily is rooted.
    Using the Time-Energy-Money Matrix, you began to identify the areas in your stepfamily that you are currently out of alignment, so that you can begin to investigate -- not HOW to close the gap -- but WHY the gap exists in the first place.
    And in Part 3, you'll get my signature method, the STEPS Process, so that you can get deeper into the root-cause of the WHY, and begin to close those gaps from the inside out as your self-awareness blossoms.

    Rules, roles, responsibilities. Forms and norms. Expectations and output. No matter how you phrase it, every stepfamily problem boils down to one of three issues: time, energy, or money. And today, we're taking a deep-dive into how each of those play into how much you enjoy your stepmom experience.
    In addition to the Time-Energy-Money Matrix exercise you'll be going through today, you'll also:
    Discover what to do if you're nervous or apprehensive about diving into self-awareness work
    Learn why "waiting for other people to get their sh*t together" is a surefire way to live in misery forever
    Realize how past memories might be clouding your judgment for what's possible in the future
    Identify where, EXACTLY, you can place your attention in order to create the peaceful, happy, connected, fulfilling life you deserve.

  • A Spouse Who Goes Back To The Ex: Client Spotlight w Lisa May

    Mark your calendars! The Uplifted Stepmom 3-Part Series is BACK! Starting Feb 24, 2022, you'll learn the 5 STEPS any stepmom can take to peacefully blend your stepfamily.

    On today's episode, we're joined by one of our Stepmom Story members who courageously shares her stepmom story.

    I think most stepmoms would agree that, at some point or another, they've asked themselves the question: "Is my spouse going to get back together with their ex?"

    And for Lisa May, not only did she wonder if her boyfriend would get back together with her stepkids' mom, she actually lived through the experience of it (and survived to tell the tale).

    Lisa is a client, a friend, and an inspiration to stepmoms everywhere. Tune in to hear how she found the resilience and the resourcefulness to turn her story into an empowering, transformative, and powerful catalyst for growth.
