## Resource

Christina welcomes Amy who shares what it took to create her stepmom identity. In the beginning of our relationships, we’re just putting the pieces together. We’re learning about the ex, experiencing how society views stepmoms, and figuring out what parts of parenting we’re “allowed” to do. How do we form our identity without losing ourselves? Listen in as Amy shares how she survives…out of spite. About My Guest: Amy Marie Ayres is a wife, stepmom, mother, author, and a passionate advocate for embracing life’s complexities with creativity and authenticity. Navigating the challenges of blended family dynamics, she brings humor, adaptability, and a deep understanding of resilience to her parenting journey. As someone who thrives on exploration—both personally and creatively—Amy believes in the power of honest conversations, and breaking free from societal expectations. Whether supporting neurodivergent voices, balancing motherhood with personal growth, or redefining what it means to be a stepmom, she approaches every aspect of life with openness and individuality. www.amymarieayres.com So much more than a podcast!!!
