Adopted and Now a Stepmum: Where Do I Belong? with Sarah-Jane Crawford
Over deze aflevering
<p>How does your own childhood shape the stepmum you become?</p><br><p>This week on Blended, Kate Ferdinand is joined by co-host Nathalie Holmes-Lewis and TV and radio presenter, and founder of Clean Curls, Sarah-Jane Crawford.</p><p>Sarah-Jane shares her personal story of growing up adopted, the close relationship she had with her dad and the impact losing him at a young age had on her life. She also opens up about becoming part of a blended family herself.</p><br><p>The panel then discusses a dilemma from a mum who adopted her daughter with her husband. Years later, after welcoming a biological baby together, she feels something has changed. While everyone acknowledges that life naturally shifts when a new born arrives, the mum can't shake the feeling that her husband is different with their adopted daughter.</p><br><p>The conversation explores whether those changes are simply part of adjusting to life with a baby, or whether a mother's intuition is sometimes telling us something important. Sarah-Jane shares why she believes it's important to trust those instincts, while Kate and Nathalie discuss how families can make sure every child continues to feel equally loved, secure and seen.</p><br><p>It's an honest conversation about adoption, identity, intuition and what it really means to be family.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
