Just listened to my first episode and I cried! I wish I had this around when I gave birth. Kate, this is the most honest and raw description of birth and the first few weeks. It makes me so sad to see this ‘influencers’ talking about how easy it all is and how they’ve nailed their bedtime routine...Read full review »

I really enjoyed this podcast when it first came out - but I feel like now it’s a bit repetitive. I know that it’s Kate’s podcast but I find a lot of the time it’s Kate talking about Kate and how Kate feels. I find her hard to relate to as a step parent because of the privilege she has, I...Read full review »

I’ve listened to quite a few episodes over the last week and every single one has made me smile and reflect on what a lovely person Kate comes across as. Some really hard-hitting topics but discussed in a safe and supportive environment. Keep it up Kate!!

Surprised at Kate’s success with this …In a good way. It’s delivered more than I was expecting. Ive found it really helpful as I am in a blended family too with lots of complicated dynamics. Kate is vulnerable too and it really helps to hear that this journey isnt always easy.

From a 45 year old woman who’s parents split up when I was 9… I CANNOT describe the love I have for my stepparents. My stepdad and also my step mum dont have kids of their own but I know they see...Read full review »

Oh my gosh I stumbled upon this podcast and I’m obsessed. I have been searching and listening to step-mom podcasts but always tried to take what was being said and apply it to my life. It’s SO refreshing to hear stories that I can actually relate to. The interviews are amazing and give such...Read full review »

Kate thank you for this. I became a step mum at 19 back in 2011. Thankfully we don’t have the grief aspect involved, instead we have the co parenting, which at times I really really struggle with. These podcasts are my go to listen now. Keep doing what you’re doing Kate ❤️
laurenjbarr via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/01/22
I think Kate forgets the privilege she has in comparison to the ‘normal’ parents, step parents she is trying to preach to.
Lucyyy.xo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/27/22

The pod is deep, it’s educational and it’s insightful. Kate is so endearing with her honesty and open communication. I think everyone should listen and learn from it!
Abcvvvvv via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/16/22
I am not part of a blended family but still find this podcast so interesting and helpful. Also given me even more respect to my sister in law who has become “step-mum” to my nephew. Kate you are an inspiration to not only “step-mums” but in my opinion ALL Mums x

This podcast makes my week. It’s so open and honest that it makes you listen! All the information and facts and all the support is so helpful and reassuring
Amelia_Jayy via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/13/22
The latest episode was really helpful! Could you also do an interview with a couple where the man is a widower, he has teenagers and is married again, but one of the teenagers just won’t accept the new wife? Wonderfully the experiences on here are very positive, where the children have...Read full review »

I’ve really enjoyed listening to your podcasts so far. I wish this group had been available a few years ago when I felt so alone and isolated - it’s comforting to know others are going through the same. It has helped me realise the questions, concerns, self doubt and feeling that I was being...Read full review »

It’s my 16th year this year of being a step mum. Two now big challenging, kind, funny boys. I put off trying for my own child as we had them every weekend and i was just tired and didn’t feel i had the energy to have a 3rd. When we did eventually try it never happened. The boys gave me so much,...Read full review »

Well done Kate. The way you have done this with such compassion & grace is beautiful ❤️ You have given 3 little broken hearts so much love. It’s so hard being blended. Well done for sharing the reality. We can only do our best but we must remember that we have feelings too.
