HOW DO YOU CONNECT WITH YOUR STEPCHILD?

You know how each week I invite you to get curious about something, something in relation to our stepmom journey. Well, today I want to show you some proof before we dive into that key thing, that key directive and share a testimony that is proof that coaching and prayer work! 

Hey, back in December, I released episode number 106, First time mom and First-time Stepmom. How do you handle all the responsibility with limited co-parenting authority and confusing expectations? 

It was a live coaching session with Stephanie. In today's episode, Stephanie shares her powerful testimony of connection with her stepdaughter.

Have you ever lost your kid in a store? That is a frightening experience. I'm confident Mary, the mother of Jesus can relate to the fear, hurry and worry of frantically searching for your child.

In today's Shortie, it's time to think about how hurry and worry may be stealing our joy, robbing us of connections with our stepkids, and creating needless anxiety in our stepmom role.

Journal prompts for SMART Stepmoms:

  ⚔ 📒📓Journal about how you would feel if you experienced significantly less stress in periods that challenge you in stepfamily life.  If it makes sense for you, use transition day as a prompt. Imagine how you will feel knowing that stress on transition day has been diffused, expectations on this day are clear for each family member, and you have confidence in knowing it is going to be a low stress transition day.

  ⚔ 📒📓 Identify one (just one!) obstacle that is preventing you from experience what you journaled on in #1.

  ⚔ 📒📓 Action step:  What one thing could you do within the next 24 hours to reduce stress in this situation.

How do you bring honor to your hunka-hunka and your family members in your household?  Well, there's one specific way you can do this very thing, without compromising your own honor. Want to know what it is?

Press play!  Welcome my guest, Michelle Castro, Wife, Mama, Podcaster, and Christian Business Coach as she discloses that one thing that took her a bit more than a bit of time to fully understand the depth and power of this ONE THING.

💫💫💫💫
As promised, here's how to initiate that 15 minute convo with your man:
Ask him if he will budget 15 minutes to talk with you later that day or the next day. 

Then, shush it, and wait for him to answer. That's it.

When you meet with him later that day or the next day, because you're honoring each other by coming together in this way, when you meet together, here's an example of what you could ask for.

"When you pray for me, I feel ___________. Will you please pray for me today?"
That's it!
Your turn, Stepmama! What will you ask for? Email me & the team at [email protected]

The day takes off.  And your plans, if you're a planner like me, the planner, it is not directing your attention to where you need to go, and all of a sudden, later on you realize you're blowing up, you're losing your cool there's no fruit of the Spirit.

Are You Having a Stepmom Identity Crisis? 3 Tips on How to Survive Second Wife Syndrome for Good.  

Shortly after a difficult resign-firing in 2014, my hunka-hunka and I, then dating, were sharing a glass of pinot on a teeny tiny balcony overlooking a busy part of a Houston downtown neighborhood.  Sidebar story - After being wined and dined for almost two years, I said yes to a job 900 miles south because I sensed God’s leading me there. 

The timing was off...but I figured I was right to go.  Bill and I had gotten serious quickly, but deep down, even though I knew he was the man I was to marry, I was afraid.  Let me articulate that differently.  I remember specifically saying to Bill quite confidently, "I don’t want to hurt you, but I want to push you away kind of thing" and “I don’t want to need you,” (or anybody else for that matter). 

Long after the fact I realized the leading was a teaching time lean into God instead of lean into the power of Jen. 

Can you relate?  Is there a time when you’ve declared your need for NOT needing someone? 

Listen in for 3 tips on Surviving and what to do to keep the momentum going as you implement these strategies for Smart Stepmoms.

My expert guest, Cheyanne Cleyman, spills all when she answers these questions:
😭 How do Stepmoms communicate with their teen daughters?
😭 Are you caught up in competing with the bonus ex-wife, or are you building relationship with your stepdaughter?
😭 What are you trying to prove? To yourself and to others?

Roses, sunshine, & unicorns in stepfamily life? Ehhh....no.  That is not how we would describe stepfamily life. But...there are elements of those, even if you married a man with a teenage daughter. Yep, it's true. I promise!

After a brief, "Hi, I'm Cheyanne", Cheyanne rips off the bandaid of real life! 🩹
