About Us

StepMom Magazine was formed in 2008 by Brenda Ockun, a veteran StepMom of 7 years, living in upstate New York.

 

The mission of the Magazine and its on-line Support Group Forum is to provide help and information about one of the most challenging and complicated roles a woman can assume.

 

Ockun was recently quoted as saying “Becoming a StepMom was the biggest challenge I ever faced. It was difficult for many of my friends to relate to my new situation. I looked for information and advice early in my marriage to ensure that everyone would be healthy, happy and well-adjusted, but I had a hard time finding helpful resources. It’s my goal now to provide a place where women can find honest, intelligent and inspiring information about the subject”.

 

StepMom Magazine features articles and information about marriage, divorce, parenting, legal and custody matters and financial information as it relates to stepfamilies.

 

So whether you are brand new to StepMom life or a veteran with lots of experience, you will find lots of great information here.
