Your Ultimate Stepfamily Summit was a Game Changer!

I just can’t say enough good things about this summit! I’ve been raving about it to my husband and even had him sit down to listen to some of the replays with me. It really has been a game changer and has helped me look at many of the challenges and emotions I/we face in our stepfamily life with a new perspective.

Thank you SO much to all of the speakers and to Claudette Chenevert! Please keep this going every year!

What makes our event
The Ultimate Stepfamily Summit?

We’ll let our past attendees tell you why!

Hello. This is my third year being a part of the stepfamily summit and I feel like every year I get information that is really necessary to bring to my family. I can't wait to see what I learn this year!

Teiah H.

"The comment about a child-free stepmom feeling there is no one in their corner and (having) a great sense of loneliness because of this is so true. I am also very close to niece and nephews and a total fur-baby mom. I feel like this presentation was written for me. Finally, how I feel was put into words. Thank you so much!" - Heather - Stepmom & Past Attendee

I've Learned a Lot & Gained
New Perspective

Thank you so very much for hosting this stepfamily summit! I greatly enjoyed these few days with everyone. I appreciate you, team and all of the speakers for sharing valuable information that is insightful and helpful.Although I have been a stepmom for 13 years and have an abundance of experiences to relate to these topics (some more than others), as well as strategies to utilize, I truly have learned a lot and gained new perspectives; tools to further assist me throughout my journey. I am looking forward to future summits!

Jessica - Stepmom & Past Attendee

“Currently listening to Heidi Farrell on Little Picture / Big Picture Thinking:‌

Definitely helpful, and this has been an ongoing challenge & reflection for me. Will need to listen twice! I reach big picture moments & keep them in mind with all important decisions, while also feeling daily sucked into full on frustration of the little pictures.”

Kris G - - Stepmom & 2023 Attendee

The World So Needs More Wonderful People Like You!

This is a wonderful gift for sure. I cannot thank everyone involved enough for caring to share everything you have learned along your own relationship journeys, giving myself and others in need the treasure of not having to do this difficult life situation alone.


This world so needs more wonderful people like all of you!!!The wonderful gift of knowledge and sharing that knowledge with others - Wisdom.Thank you!

Melissa - Stepmom & Past Attendee

I’ve gained SO much knowledge from the summit thus far. I wish I had known all the speakers when I first became a stepmom, because they give advice that would have been so helpful starting out.

They are all down to earth people that have been through the same things I’ve been through the same things I’ve been through, so they are relatable and so rare to find as a stepparent. I LOVE the layout of the summit in general, the workbook, and all the offers you receive for free! It’s an extremely well organized and I will sign up every year now that I know about this. I will share and recommend this summit every person in a blended family!

Laralyn Luka Wills - - Stepmom & 2020 Attendee

Hi Claudette,

I really love this Summit and every speaker. Thank you so much for all your hard work putting this together every year.❤️

Beth K. - Stepmom & Past Attendee

Last summer, my fiance, my stepson and me travelled to the West Coast in the USA. My daughter was not with us as she left 3 years before to live with her father and I knew very little about her.

I was already following StepMom Magazine on Instagram and got in contact with Heidi Farrell, she invited me to join Stepfamily Summit last September.


I watched almost all the videos online. They were fascinating for me. I felt so validated about what was going in my stepfamily life and about what experts talked on the summit, about how to make steps to live better in a stepfamily and how to give ease and facilitate children's lives within that dynamic. It's not as easy as it seems.


I got to know Tracy Poizner there and as I struggled during years - and I mean really deeply struggled - about my teenager daughter, who had signs of "alienation", she could help me as Tracy is an expert on alienation.


So I got in contact with Tracy and in 8 months I had my daughter in Hungary in the motherly grandparents home. I had my daughter with me during a week after 3 years gap.


My daughter was like "nothing happened" and I was like "drinking of her presence", I can't find the right words what it meant to me, I was overflowed with love, I just can't stop watching at her, smell her, looking in her beautiful green eyes. WHAT A FLOW OF HAPPINESS. Thank you Tracy!!!


I have no words to express how grateful I am for the opportunity that I could be a participant of the Stepfamily Summit and for Claudette Chenevert for the organization.


I watched even the husband's video which gives an other aspect about stepfamily life. Men are usually more reserved about their personal life and less talkative in public about this topic. It requires a great courage to speak about such delicate issues knowing that so many people are listening and watching you. It's a big responsibility.


I hope this September we - members of stepfamilies, a huge amount of people - could learn again with Claudette on the Stepfamily Summit. I can't hardly wait it!! There will be a wild variety of answers for stepmoms and stepdads.


See you there!!

Henriett, mom to teen daughter and stepmom to teen son

Stepfamily Life More Livable?

  • Confusing or conflicting priorities
  • Mixed emotions about "ours babies"
  • Stepparent/Parental Alienation
  • Unequal power & control
  • Outsider Syndrome

On a Personal Note 

by Claudette Chenevert
Host, Producer, Presenter

As a stepparent for over 30 years, believe me when I say—I understand how tough it can be!


While some aspects of stepfamily life do get easier over time, the challenges are always evolving. My two stepdaughters are adults now, and so is my son, who was raised with the care and guidance of my husband as his stepdad. Even with all these years of experience, I know that stepfamily life is an ongoing journey filled with twists and turns.


I created The Ultimate Stepfamily Summit with YOU in mind—plain and simple. My goal is to equip you with the knowledge, resources, and support you need to navigate the ups and downs of stepfamily life with confidence and grace.


Thank you for being here, and I look forward to connecting with you during the 5th Annual Summit. Don’t forget to stop by and say “Hi!”


Warmly,

Claudette Chenevert
The Stepmom Coach
