Do you ever feel overwhelmed by resentment toward your partner’s high conflict ex – and then guilty for feeling that way?
In this powerful episode, I unpack one of the most uncomfortable and unspoken truths in high conflict stepfamily life – sometimes, you just hate her. For the way she disrupts everything. Because you even have to think about her.
And you hate what this is doing to you.
I explore how to understand this hate – and how to stop it from taking over your life. This episode offers deep emotional validation and a practical path forward.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
Why your feelings of hate are normal – and what they’re actually telling you

A powerful framework to help you reclaim emotional control
