Single Mother Survival Guide

Becoming a single mum is one of the most daunting and overwhelming life changes someone will ever go through. Whether you are pregnant or have teenagers, you will most likely be confused and struggling with what to do next. I became a single mother in 2013 when my daughter was just a few months old, and it has been a challenging but rewarding journey ever since. This Podcast (and the website www.singlemothersurvivalguide.com) was created to assist newly single mothers in all things they may need to know about. SO WHAT IS THE SINGLE MOTHER SURVIVAL GUIDE PODCAST ABOUT? A Podcast for single mums, made by a single mum… The Single Mother Survival Guide Podcast includes a mixture of me babbling about single mums business, and interviews and discussions with different people and experts about different topics. First off the ranks this includes an interview with a Wills and Estate lawyer which contains everything YOU need to know about getting a Will done, an interview with a financial adviser on everyday money management, savings, spending and so forth, an interview with an online security expert so that YOU know how to keep yourself secure online, an open interview with a domestic violence survivor and advocate, and another interview with a financial adviser on everything to do with insurance, and what you should think about getting insured to ensure the financial safety for you and your kids. Coming up after that I have chats with people including parenting experts, family lawyers, and a life coach. I also chat about the social stigma of being a single mum, single parent travel, everyday tips to make YOUR life easier, dating, personal budgeting, resources out there to help YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN, child support, domestic violence, successful co-parenting, advantages to being a single mum, and the list goes on…

In today's episode, we're delving into the challenging yet vital topic of healing trauma as a single mother. Life as a single mum can be incredibly tough, and if you're tuning in, chances are you've faced your fair share of struggles. Whether it's the aftermath of divorce, emotional abuse, or financial hardship, these experiences can leave deep scars, impacting our self-esteem, relationships, and overall ability to move forward.

While trauma is often associated with significant events like warfare or accidents, many single mothers also grapple with their own forms of trauma. But here's the thing: healing is possible. Despite the weight of past wounds, you're not alone on this journey. Together, we explore strategies for healing, rebuilding, and ultimately thriving. Remember, within you lies the strength to emerge as the empowered, resilient woman you were always meant to be.
