“Kristen Skiles has written the handbook every stepmom wishes she had on day one. Stepmomming Made Easy is empathetic, practical, and refreshingly honest. Kristen speaks directly to the often-overlooked emotional experience of stepmoms, while equipping readers with tools they can use right away. This book doesn’t just validate the journey―it empowers it. I wholeheartedly recommend it to any woman navigating blended family life.”

“Are you faced with the prospect or reality of becoming a stepmother? This book is a must-read. Kristen offers real life tools to guide you to a place of confidence, clarity, and hope.”
―Barb Goldberg, Author of The Evil Stepmother Speaks
“As a journalist, I believed that as I entered stepmom life I would find hundreds of resources on how to be my best in this new role. (Spoiler: no way!) After so many trials and failures, I’ve found my way, but boy do I wish I had Kristen’s book a long time ago! It clearly outlines everyone’s perspectives in blended family life and how to navigate those feelings, as well as your own, without attacking or belittling other parties. That said, I do hope biological parents also pick up this book to have better understanding for the very complicated role of ‘stepmom.’”
―Jamie Yuccas, Emmy-winning CBS News Correspondent & Reporter

As a stepmom, a mom, and a coach, Kristen brings a unique lived perspective to her training that will help stepmoms find the peace in their lives and relationships. A great read that feels like a conversation with a brilliant friend!”
