Kristen Skiles

Kristen is a Certified Stepparent Coach, founder of Stepmomming.com, and host of the chart-topping podcast, Stepmomming Made Easy. She is passionate about providing guidance and validation to stepmoms everywhere, empowering them to overcome discontentment and genuinely love their stepfamilies. Kristen is married with a 13-year-old stepdaughter and infant son. She has overcome insecurities as her husband's second wife, learned a million lessons the hard way as a stepparent, and been on a roller coaster ride with shared parenting. Kristen grew up as a stepchild with a strict and very involved stepdad, a long-distance dad, and a few different stepmoms over the years. Couple that experience with the fact she was business partners and lived with her stepdaughter's mom for a season, and it's safe to say, she offers a unique perspective! She has been featured on TODAY, The Atlantic, Newsweek, The Boston Globe, Texas Today, and Scary Mommy.
