179. All Things Having An Ours Baby. A Q+A with Jamie + Darren Mar 20, 2023

Darren is back on the show and we are diving into all things having an ours baby!

The episode kicks off with Darren reminding me of the worries I felt when it came time to having our daughter (some that I had forgotten I even had!) which reminded me that I was once in the same place a lot of you are.

We then dive into answering the questions you submitted and there are some good ones.

Things like whether the bio mom should take the ours baby on her time, how to deal with anxiety about how an ours baby will change the family dynamic, dealing with a high-conflict ex during pregnancy, handling different parenting styles, balancing schedules, raising them differently than your partner raised your stepkids with the ex, and SO much more!

155: Q+A With My Stepdaughter Sep 19, 2022

This is such a special episode… I am so excited for you to hear it and grateful that I was able to record it. A few months ago I told my stepdaughter Madison that some stepmoms on Instagram wanted her to come on the podcast, and she was like “I totally would”.

I never thought she would but then again I never thought to ask her!

I guess you never know unless you ask right.

In this episode we talk about what it was like for her having divorced parents, if she prefers joint celebrations, what I did or didn’t do right when I first started dating her dad, if she feels loyalty to her mom, what it was like when we had our daughter Reese… and so much more!

141: Re-Write YOUR Mother Code with Dr Gertrude Lyons Apr 04, 2022

Todays guest is Dr. Gertrude Lyons. She is on a mission to rewrite the Mother Code, and help women heal their motherwound and debunk the myths of motherhood.

She is a Master Life Coach and Relationship Expert with over 20 years of experience. Through her Rewriting The Mother Code initiative, which challenges the traditional notions of motherhood and womanhood she has become a national mothering revolutionary. She believes Dr. Lyon’s belief, all women have a “mother code” instilled in them—the current model for mothering in our culture is broken. It is limited, constricting, and disempowering. She questions preconceived beliefs and leans into topics that will tap into the powerful femininity within all of us.

In this episode we talk about the myths around motherhood, how our childhood and cultural experiences impact how we view motherhood and how moms can and should write their OWN mothercode.

116: Healing The Mother Wound with Bethany Webster Oct 11, 2021

In this episode Jamie chats with Bethany Webster, author of Discovering Your Inner Mother, all about the Mother Wound.

After hearing Bethany speak on another podcast, Jamie was forever changed. Discovering the Mother Wound filled in so many gaps for her about why she feels the way she does, and validated so many of her experiences with her own mom.

In this episode, Bethany and Jamie dive into:

What the Mother Wound is
How it's a direct result of our patriarchal society
How the mother gap (what you needed from your mother vs. what you got) shows up in adult relationships
How the stories we tell ourselves stem from our early childhood experiences, and our relationships with our mothers
How to set boundaries with your mother (if needed and desired)
The shame and guilt that women often experience when their relationship with their mother isn't what they think it should be
How to grieve the relationship you want, but may never have

and more.

Jamie also dives into some of her own personal experiences and talks about how Bethany's work has been the catalyst to so much personal growth and discovery for her.

094: Healing My Childhood Trauma with Jamie Scrimgeour Mar 08, 2021

This is my story. Sometimes when you want to look forward, you need to look back. I know that sounds counterproductive but it’s the truth. We don’t realize how our past, our childhood, the messages we've received, the trauma we're experienced and the unhealed wounds that we have, impact how we perceive the world in the present time. Often, to really level up and move forward in your life, you need to heal that past trauma and tend to those past wounds .That’s what this episode is all about. This week I share my thoughts on personal development and what it really takes to make the change. I talk about how my experiences in my childhood and with my parents divorce results in anxiety, anger and control issues that I didn’t fully understand until the last few years.

This is probably the most vulnerable I’ve ever gotten on the podcast. Here we go.

087: “Nesting”: Co-Parenting Under The Same Roof with Julie Cole Jan 18, 2021

In this episode of The KICK-ASS Stepmom Podcast, Julie Cole, mom of 6, blogger and founder of Mabel's Labels talks about divorce and her decision to adopt the “nesting” co-parenting style after she and her husband decided to end their marriage.

If you’re not familiar, “nesting” is when two parents are no longer in a romantic relationship, but choose to co-parent their kids in the matrimonial home. Each parent attends the home during their allotted parenting time and lives somewhere else when it is not.

I just love getting into a peek of the many different types of co-parenting relationships and this one was no different.

078: When “Our House, Our Rules” Backfires with Chloe Caldwell Nov 02, 2020

I have a question for you.

What would you do if your stepchild came to you and said that she wanted to get a dog… and bring it back and forth between mom's house and dad’s house.

So essentially, not only would you be co-parenting a child… you’d be co-parenting a dog, too!

As crazy as it sounds, it was the reality for today’s guest - stepmom and writer Chloe Caldwell - when her stepdaughter asked if she could get a dog (that travelled right along with her between mom and dads house!)

The outcome? Well it shocked her more than anyone and even landed her and her stepdaughter in the New York Times.

In this episode Chloe tells us the story of her biggest stepfamily stressor yet… and what it taught her about parenting and step-parenting.
