The KICK-ASS Stepmom Podcast

Dr. Todd Jensen, the founder of THRIFT (Thriving Through Family Transitions Research Lab), joins Jamie on The KICK-ASS Stepmom Podcast to share his research on stepfamily dynamics from the perspective of stepchildren.

Jamie and Todd dive deep into loyalty binds, the responsibility parents should feel to supporting and nurturing the stepfamily dynamic, 'ambiguous gain' in step families, why authenticity is so important when building a relationship with your stepkid, and creating a sense of safety in your home.
