In this episode, we're going deep with Dr. Erin Careless on what it means to set some boundaries and "step back." We also talk about finding stepmom resources and why it's so important to look for tools that are evidence and research-backed.
Erin is one of the experts speaking at this year's Stepmom
Summit and is the Chair of Stepfamily Magazine's Advisory Board.
Erin became a stepmom when she met her partner Matt in 2014. That
same year, she became a Certified Stepfamily Coach and founded
Steplife as a way to share her experiences and provide support to
other women navigating stepfamily life. Erin is also a Director of
Adult Education, so her coaching is informed by adult learning
principles and strategies such as reflection and critical
thinking.
Erin and Matt married in 2015, and in addition to her stepkids
Oliver and Waverleigh, they are parents to Grace and Finn. Erin's
PhD research is on stepmothering, and it is her passion to empower
stepmoms to find the role in their family that works for
them.
