Now for the fun stuff: In this episode, we talk with Alex, a newly married, childless stepmom with THREE bonus kiddos. Alex has recognized a gap in the stepmom community around a particular topic: Parenting Coordinators. A parenting coordinator is appointed when two parties (parents) can't agree on how to manage the kids' lives. Their bedtimes, their haircuts, transition itineraries - you name it. Most of the time, a parenting coordinator is involved in the ultimate HIGH CONFLICT situation, so of course, you'll hear more about that, how to keep your composure, and Alex's take on how to be the best stepmom but putting the kids and their needs first without sacrificing your own sanity. Spoiler alert: your mindset is your most powerful tool.
