Hello!

If we haven’t met before, my name is Maarit. I’m a former single mom turned stepmom, and the voice behind Blended Family Frappé, together with my husband Dan. Who will probably pop in on this podcast from time to time, as he likes to do.

If you know anything about our work, then you know we are ALL ABOUT the deep dive, the research, the in-depth support. And there are a ton of great blended family podcasts that offer exactly that. But I also know that so many times as a stepparent, I just wouldn’t have had the time, or the privacy, the energy, or quite frankly the emotional bandwidth for a deeper dive. And on those days, what would’ve helped me the most is just a quick pep talk. Just… a reminder that I wasn’t alone. That I wasn’t the crazy one. That all this is temporary and everything’s gonna be okay.

So I decided to start a daily podcast for other stepparents who might be feeling the same way. If you’re familiar with our Instagram feed, basically this is the same flavor, but in podcast form. Pop in anytime you’ve got a few minutes and just need a little bit of reassurance. We’ll be here for you. xo

I'm a former single mom, turned stepmom, and the voice behind blended family frappe together with my husband Dan, who will probably pop in on this podcast from time to time, as he likes to do. If you know anything about our work, then you know we are all about the deep dive, the research, the in-depth support. And there's a ton of great blended family podcasts out there that offer exactly that. But I also know that so many times in my hardest years as a step parent, I just wouldn't have had the time or the privacy or the energy or quite frankly the emotional bandwidth for a deeper dive. And on those days, what would have helped me the most is just a quick pep talk, like a reminder that I wasn't alone, and that I wasn't the crazy one, that all this is temporary and everything's gonna be okay. So I decided to start a daily podcast for other step parents who might be feeling the same way. If you're familiar with our Instagram feed, basically this is the same flavor, but in podcast form.
