How coaching works:
Book Your Session: Select your coaching package and choose a date/time that fits your hectic schedule. Once you're booked in, I'll shoot over an initial questionnaire. Pro tip: spill the beans! The more detail you provide, the better I can swoop in fully prepared – no time-wasting here!
The Pre-Call Anticipation: Waiting for your session is like waiting for the next season of your favorite show – the suspense is real! On the call day, I'll do a quick recap of your initial questionnaire to ensure I've got the lowdown. Expect follow-up questions and requests for more juicy context.
Real-Time Stress-Busting: It’s showtime! Together, we'll tackle your stressors in real-time, like a dynamic duo on a mission. We'll hit those goals you set in the initial questionnaire, ensuring you walk away feeling validated, seen, and with a little extra pep in your step.
Post-Call Recap: After our meeting of the minds, I'll send over a follow-up email recapping our coaching session. But hey, it's not all about what needs fixing – I'll highlight what you're already nailing, too! Remember, even the tiniest progress is still progress, and I'm here to cheer you on every step of the way.

10 Things I Wish I Knew
Ready for the wild ride of being a stepmom? Buckle up and learn the things I wish I would have known in my early years. Thank me later!
I never thought I would be a Stepmom Coach.
I was single and living my life and then, by chance, met my husband and soon realized that I had signed up for more than I bargained for. There’s nothing like starting a new relationship and having to deal with an ex and kids-it quickly became clear that this wasn’t going to be a “walk in the park”.
I operated in a very black and white world and, you know, that doesn’t work so well in the stepmom world. Needless to say, I struggled. More than I was willing to admit to anyone-myself included. Soon, I found myself googling “how to get divorced.” Even though I was crazy about my husband, I was not crazy about all of the other factors at play.
I spent countless hours googling “stepmom help,” “stepmom support,” and “what do I do if I hate being a stepmom?” and felt like none of the support really spoke to my situation: aviation, an age gap relationship, and a headstrong personality.
After coming to terms with gulp I needed help, we signed up for marriage counseling.
Lots and lots of tears (and checking my ego) later, things started to fall into place. I was now equipped with the tools I didn’t know I needed. I was able to regulate my emotions (who knew you could tame a hothead?). I was able to calmly, clearly articulate my needs, wants, and desires.
Lots and lots of tears (and Doing the work personally has helped me navigate my life as a stepmom much easier. Seeing how our relationship has turned out, I became obsessed with helping other stepmoms navigate this often lonely, isolating role. I’ve been able to help over hundreds of stepmoms and am excited to get that number into the thousands. No gatekeeping of stepmom success here!

Real Results from Real Stepmoms
Alicia made me feel validated, gave me suggestions during the call, and followed up with worksheets. She gave me some hard truths about being patient and letting go.
"Alicia gets it and her advice and insights are always spot on! Alicia is amazing. Every Stepmom needs a fellow stepmom BFF and Alicia is it! Thank you so much for being such a great listener. For constantly reminding me that, no, I am not crazy. Or mean or an evil Stepmother for the things I go through and the thoughts that I have."
“Alicia helps me feel like there is always someone in my corner. Every stepmom knows that this is much needed. ”
Talking with Alicia is like talking with your best friend. It’s a dynamic conversation full of shared experiences, validation, honest feedback, encouragement, and some laughs and some tears. She holds space for where you are today, provides realistic and actionable advice, and it’s as if she holds up a mirror and you can see your happier future self reflecting back at you.
"Alicia helped me learn to let things go far more than I used to. The most helpful thing was just feeling like I'm not alone in my struggles. That other people (Alicia, too!) have been there, too, and it's not unusual to feel the way I feel sometimes."
“I am doing a lot better not taking things personally and have improved my communication skills with my step-kids and my partner. I have more realistic expectations and am able to express my feelings in a more positive way.”
“Alicia is super thoughtful, caring, and is always reaching out (even between sessions) to check in. I really feel like she cares and is invested in our family doing better..”
