TRIGGER WARNING: Talks of Baby Loss is in this episode.
Its one thing to enter into motherhood via stepmotherhood, navigating high conflict situations, learning your role, all whilst staying sane. But just imagine wanting to experience the journey and pregnancy through to birth to then come to the realisation that you may need some assistance in doing so?
My guest Polly helps us understand a whole new level to creating a blended family that feels good for all. IVF is a challenging journey in itself matched up with being a step-mum to two children, we learn how Polly coped, what she learned and hear the golden nuggets she has for anyone who can relate.

DISCLAIMER: The audio messed up guys but in honour of keeping it real and authentic I chose not to re-record. Please give me grace as you walk with me learning how to podcast on the go.
Ok so this episode is all about the breakdown of a Step-mum/Birth mum friendship gone awry. We ought to know that BM & SM friendships do exist but what we are going to learn in this episode is why it wont work without Boundaries!!!
This step-mum is super honest and relatable if you are going to be real here. We talk about Jealously, Trolls, Mental Health, Disengaging and healing. Its super easy to get into a place of blame and not without real reason but what I know as a step-mum and coach is that you got to recognise your part in the mess and hold yourself accountable and CHECK YOUR MOTIVES. Lauren does just that!
Lauren, who is a fitness coach and serial entrepreneur joins me to get Uncut about her step-mum journey. You can find her here

Hey - Welcome to the first episode of Stepmums: Uncut. Here I am introducing myself along with my husband and talking about my true feelings around being a stepmother.
I answer the questions - would you do this journey all over again, knowing what I know now? My husband asks me if I resent his children and much more on how we have overcome some pretty hard times and what advise we would give to others who may be facing the inevitable rough patches in their journey of "Blending"
