It's time for another episode of the Fathers truth. I am Alan Donovan. So let me ask you this. Before we get going here. What do you guys think of when you hear the word stem? Now, growing up, you know, we were always encouraged to think about step moms as being those evil women that come into a family tear the family apart is horrible people. That's what we see in Hollywood. That's what we see all over the place. Now, it's been my experience since I started doing this that step moms are not evil. They're not evil at all. They're actually some of the most downhearted big hearted, most open minded women out there that, you know, just want to be a part of the family. So with that being said, Today, I have Christina on she is the founder and host of the radical step moms podcast. She's a wife, a mom, a step mom. And she started the radical step mounts podcast to provide step moms a safe space to talk about the good, the bad, and really ugly moments about raising a child. They didn't create. She's also a licensed clinical therapist.
