FAQs
1. What exactly is the Stepmum Reset Workshop?
It’s a gently structured, deeply supportive workshop designed around the challenges stepmums tell me they’re struggling with the most. You’ll learn practical tools, new ways of seeing things, and simple shifts that make daily life feel easier and calmer. It’s coaching-led — emotionally intelligent, grounded, and completely judgement-free.
2. Do I have to share personal details?
Not at all. You can share as much or as little as feels comfortable. Some people talk, some people listen, some just take notes — all are welcome. The workshop is designed to feel safe and held, not exposing.
3. Is this therapy?
No. This is transformational coaching — focused on clarity, tools, and forward movement. It’s not counselling or mental-health treatment, but many stepmums say it feels incredibly validating, soothing, and grounding. It can work beautifully alongside therapy.
4. What if I can’t attend both sessions?
Because of confidentiality, recordings aren’t shared. If you’re attending the two-evening format, you’ll need to be present for both sessions. If you can’t make the dates, join the waitlist and you’ll be notified of future rounds before they go public.
5. How many people will be in the group?
The group is intentionally small so everyone feels supported and safe. There will be a maximum of eight women. It’s not a huge webinar — it’s a warm, contained space where you can breathe and be yourself.
6. Is it suitable if I’m very new to being a stepmum?
Yes — it’s one of the best times to join. You’ll understand what’s normal, what’s yours, what’s theirs, and what you can gently influence. It’s also helpful if you’ve been a stepmum for years but feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unheard.
7. Will this help if my partner and I have different parenting styles?
Absolutely. This is one of the biggest challenges stepmums bring, and we cover communication, boundaries, emotional load, control vs. letting go, and supporting the couple relationship. You’ll leave with practical, usable tools.
8. What if I have a complicated relationship with the ex?
So many stepmums do. We explore how to manage anxiety, reduce emotional impact, and protect your peace — even when the wider system is chaotic or unpredictable.
9. Will people judge me? What if others have it “worse” or “easier”?
There’s no hierarchy of struggle here. Every experience is welcome. The space is gentle, kind, and confidential — stepmums are some of the most compassionate women you'll meet.
10. What do I need to bring?
Just yourself, a notebook, and something to drink. All worksheets, exercises, and tools are provided. You’ll also receive a personalised “Reflections & Next Steps” email afterwards.
11. How much does it cost?
The full workshop — including all materials and your personalised follow-up — is £249. It’s priced to be as accessible as possible while offering a high-quality, high-touch experience.
12. Is there a payment plan?
Yes. If a payment plan would make joining easier, email katie@stepmumspace.com and one can be arranged privately and sensitively.
13. Will the workshop make a difference long term?
Yes — the tools you learn are designed to be used for life. Most stepmums say they feel a shift immediately, and even more so in the weeks after the workshop.
14. Do I have to have children of my own?
No. This workshop is open to child-free stepmums, stepmums with their own children, and stepmums navigating fertility or loss. All experiences are welcome.
15. My situation is messy — will this still help?
Yes. Whether you’re dealing with a high-conflict ex, challenging behaviour, complicated dynamics or constant overwhelm, this workshop will give you clarity, emotional grounding and practical tools.
16. What happens after I sign up?
You’ll receive a confirmation email, your Zoom link, a reminder before the session, and afterwards a personalised “Reflections & Next Steps” email.
17. Can I book 1:1 coaching afterwards?
Yes — many women choose to continue privately. There’s no pressure, but you’re welcome to book a Free Clarity Call if you want support that goes deeper.
18. I’m anxious about joining. What if I cry?
You’re human. So many stepmums shed tears — it’s a sign of release, not weakness. The space is kind, steady, and held with full respect for your emotional experience.

Being with people who understood the challenges, where you could speak completely openly and where whatever you said felt understood, meant so much in a world where it so often feels the opposite.
Having the time and space to work with Katie on specific exercises directed at helping us with our individual issues was so useful, to give clarity to thoughts and feelings and to take away ideas and approaches that I know will help throughout the rest of my step-mum journey

Joining Katie’s workshop is the best thing I’ve done to help with my Stepmum anxiety. Getting to speak to women in the same situation and support each other has made me so much more happy and confident!I feel less alone and I’ve got this support network who actually gets what it’s like!

I've had counselling in the past but nobody has been able to explain how my mind works and help me shift my thought patterns like Katie. The workshop really was amazing!
