Kristen shares her blended-family story, including marrying a single dad, navigating early high-conflict dynamics, and the unusual experience of her husband’s ex-wife and her new husband living with them for three months, which challenged boundaries but helped Kristen release unrealistic expectations and accept she isn’t her stepdaughter’s mom. They talk about adding two sons after a fertility journey, Kristen’s experience as a stepdaughter, why remarriage divorce rates are high, differences for stepmoms partnered with widowers, and what Stepmom Con offers, including expert interviews, live chat, connection hours, and upgrade options.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><u>Kristen Skiles</u></strong></p><p><strong>Email: <a href=\"mailto:kristen@stepmomming.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">kristen@stepmomming.com</a></strong></p><p><strong>Website: <a href=\"https://stepmomming.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Stepmomming.com</a></strong></p><p><strong>Instagram: <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/stepmomming/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Kristen Skiles (@stepmomming)</a></strong></p><p><strong>Facebook: <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/stepmomming\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Stepmomming Blog</a> </strong></p><p><strong>Pintrest : <a href=\"https://www.pinterest.com/stepmomming/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Stepmomming with Kristen Skiles</a></strong></p><p><strong>Threads: <a href=\"https://stepmommingmadeeasy.buzzsprout.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Stepmomming Made Easy</a></strong></p><p><strong>Books: <a href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Stepmomming-Made-Easy-Strategies-Everything/dp/1394295022/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Stepmomming Made Easy Strategies Everything/</a></strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong><u>Robin Breuner </u></strong></p><p><strong>Email: <u>robinbreuner@gmail.com</u></strong></p><p><strong>Website: <a href=\"http://www.robinbreuner.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">www.robinbreuner.com</a></strong></p><p><strong>Instagram:<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/stepstoriespodcast/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> stepstories</a><u>podcastIG</u></strong></p><p><strong>Facebook: <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61582689185910\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">stepstoriespodcastFB</a></strong></p><p><strong>Linkedin: <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/robin-breuner-23a84134/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> RobinBreunerLinkIN</a></strong></p><p><strong>Podcast: <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stepstories-podcast/id1846685487\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> StepStories Podcast</a></strong></p><p><strong>Threads:<a href=\"https://www.threads.com/@robinbreuner?xmt=AQF0GOVjXGjpQJa7Aphz1ZVD0-WwsL41APbphovVTHeblsU\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> @robinbreuner</a></strong></p><p><strong>YouTube<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@StepStoriesPodcast\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">: StepStories Podcast YouTube</a></strong></p><p><strong>TikTok: <a href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@stepstoriespodcast/video/7569378260706938126\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">www.tiktok.com/@stepstoriespodcast/video/7569378260706938126</a></strong></p>","author_name":"Robin Breuner "}
