  • Relatable, reliable content

    Cameron is hands down one of the top stepfamily experts with content that is not only super relatable but also backed by research and can be trusted to guide stepmoms in the right direction. I know I can trust what she says and I think that’s so important with all the new stepmom-related content out on social media. This podcast is something a stepmom will keep coming back to because it’s both real and reliable!

    I’ve been a stepmom for 16+ years, I wish I had this podcast when I was a new stepmom!! Such great advice and tips for helping navigate the stepmom life. I’m still struggling with some things even though my step kids are grown, and I still found helpful comments and perspective in these podcasts, so thank you.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

123: Stepmom Grief: The Hidden Loss No One Talks About | Rachel Dunne
Q: How do you help clients name and work through grief in stepfamily dynamics?
I normalize the experience, encourage clients to sit with their feelings, and guide them to identify the underlying sadness rather than focusing solely on surface anger or frustration. This process helps them acknowledge loss, process trauma, and develop healthier responses and boundaries.
123: Stepmom Grief: The Hidden Loss No One Talks About | Rachel Dunne
Q: How did you come to be a stepmom, and what led you to pursue coaching and counseling in this space?
I moved into stepfamily life after a series of personal experiences that highlighted a gap in available support, especially integrating faith and mental health. I started a blog during COVID, pursued coaching certification, and eventually earned advanced training and a master's degree while continuing to help others—turning personal struggle into a professional mission to support stepmoms.
119: What Most Parents Miss About Estate Planning in Blended Families (Especially Stepchildren) with Tara Yukawa, CEA
Q: What should families with blended dynamics prioritize in their planning, beyond just having a will?
Prioritize setting up durable powers of attorney with clear guardrails, choosing an appropriate executor or trustee, and having honest conversations with all involved about roles, expectations, and the distribution plan to prevent conflicts later.
119: What Most Parents Miss About Estate Planning in Blended Families (Especially Stepchildren) with Tara Yukawa, CEA
Q: Tell me about your background and how you ended up focusing on this work.
I transitioned from a corporate operations background into estate planning coaching after experiencing my in-laws' loss and realizing how overwhelmed families can be; I then became a certified executor advisor to help families save time and reduce complexity.
116: The Loyalty Bind in Blended Families: Why Kids Feel Torn Between Mom and Stepmom with Barb Goldberg

Barb recounts her long journey into stepfamily coaching, highlighting her experiences, the development of her books, and her mission to help stepmoms feel seen and supported. She emphasizes resilience, humor, and practical guidance as core to her approach.
