EP 20 | Why Mother's Day Is So Hard for Stepmoms - And How To Heal After It

Last Sunday was Mother's Day. And if you're a stepmom, there's a good chance you woke up this morning carrying something you don't quite have the words for yet.
Maybe nobody acknowledged you. Maybe you watched your partner celebrate someone else while you sat quietly in the background. Maybe the stepkids didn't say anything not because they don't care, but because nobody told them they could. Maybe you smiled through the whole day, held it together, kept the peace, and now that it's over, the weight of it is sitting right on your chest.
That feeling is real. And you are not alone in it. In this episode, Lina Shine is talking about the morning after Mother's Day - the one that stepmoms rarely get to talk about out loud. Because the holiday that is supposed to celebrate the women who show up for children every single day has a way of reminding stepmoms exactly how invisible this role can feel.
