#98: Feeling Powerless as a Stepmom? It Might Be the Victim Mindset
In this episode of The Stepmom Side Podcast, Alicia dives into a powerful truth that many stepmoms avoid: staying stuck in victimhood may feel safe—but it’s quietly stealing your joy, your voice, and your power.
If you’ve ever thought, “No one gets it,” “Nothing I do matters,” or “I’m just done trying,” this episode is your wake-up call and warm hug in one. Alicia shares how victimhood becomes a comfort zone and why breaking free is the key to reclaiming your confidence, peace, and freedom as a stepmom.
You’ll hear:
- What victimhood actually looks and sounds like (spoiler: it’s sneaky)
- Why staying stuck can feel easier than choosing change
- The emotional and relational cost of giving away your power
- A personal story from Alicia that proves you can take control, even in chaos
This is the episode to listen to when you’re ready to stop surviving and start leading your stepmom life on your terms.
