🎧 Stepmum Space: The Podcast for Stepmum Support & Stepfamily Help
Honest conversations for stepmums who most definitely did NOT know what they were getting into!
Hosted by Katie South, Stepmum Space is the stepfamily podcast that offers real, candid and compassionate support for anyone navigating life as a stepmum.
Whether you're searching for stepmum help, stepmum support, or simply a place where your experience is understood—this podcast is here to hold space for you.
When Katie fell in love with a dad of two nearly a decade ago, she had no idea what lay ahead. The journey has been full of incredible highs and painful lows—and like many stepmums, she faced it with very little support and a whole lot of stigma. Now, she’s on a mission to break the silence around stepmotherhood and normalize the complex emotions that come with it.
Each episode features raw, brave conversations with guests who share their lived experiences in blended families. Expect validation, practical insights, and a community that gets it.

Stepmum Space
S5, Ep 5. "This family is NOT blendable"
In this episode Katie talks to Joanne, a bio Mum of two girls who became a Stepmum to a girl and a boy when she met her partner.
Joanne's story is twofold in that her relationship with her stepson has always been strong, as has her partner's with her daughters, but her relationship with her Stepdaughter has been really difficult, to the point where Joanne is now clear that she doesn't ever want to "blend" her family.
Joanne and Katie talk about parenting styles, how to manage life when you don't agree with your partner's parenting decisions and how it's ok to decide you don't want your family to blend!
