🎧 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.

S4, Ep 5. A bio-Mum's side of the story
In this episode Katie talks to Elizabeth*.
Elizabeth is a bio Mum to 3 kids who's Dad is now in a relationship with someone else.
In this conversation Elizabeth shares her experience of being the bio mum in a separated family. She talks about the difficulties of her ex Husband not being open about his new relationship, her shock at receiving a legal letter accusing her of harassing behaviour and how it's hard to hear of her children having new experiences that she hasn't been part of.
Elizabeth also speaks candidly about realising that all the things her husband said he didn't want, he actually did... just with someone else.
We are SUPER grateful to Elizabeth for sharing things from her side. The more open we can all be about how we feel, (in a considered and kind way!) the more we can make this journey easier for us all.
