Stepmum Space
Fairytales & scary tales about the ups and downs of life as a stepmum with Katie South and guests.
When Katie fell in love with a Dad of two, almost a decade ago, she had no idea what lay ahead of her! It's been a rollercoaster of incredible highs, and painful lows. Faced with very little support and huge societal stigma, Katie found the first few years of her Stepmum journey incredibly isolating and difficult. She's now on a mission to break down the stigma surrounding Stepmotherhood and normalise some of the more tricky emotions that almost all Stepmums will feel at one time or another. Katie is passionate about giving Stepmums a voice, and in this series you can expect honest and brave conversations about life in a Stepfamily.
