Single Mother Survival Guide

In this episode, we explore the powerful shift that happens when you move beyond simply surviving separation and begin asking, "What do I want to create now?" While divorce or separation may always be part of your story, it doesn't have to define the rest of your life.
We talk about how to start building a future that's richer, more meaningful, and centred on who you're becoming (not what you've been through). If you're ready to move from getting through each day to creating a life you love, this episode will encourage you to take that next step with hope and purpose.

In this episode, I'm talking about one of the questions I'm asked most often: How do I know if I'm actually healing? After separation or divorce, it's easy to feel like you're making progress one day, only to be triggered the next and wonder if you're back where you started.
I explore why healing is rarely a straight line and how setbacks don't erase the progress you've already made. If you've been questioning whether you're moving forward, this episode offers reassurance, perspective, and reminders to help you recognise the quiet signs of healing that are often easy to miss.

In this episode, I'm talking about what it means to date with intention after separation or divorce. Whether you've found yourself jumping into relationships too quickly, avoiding dating altogether, or feeling unsure about what you're actually looking for, this conversation is for you.
We explore the importance of understanding your values, being clear about your goals, and making conscious decisions rather than reacting out of fear, loneliness, or old patterns. Dating with intention isn't about finding someone as quickly as possible; it's about approaching relationships in a way that aligns with the life you want to create.

In this episode, I'm sharing five decisions that profoundly changed the course of my life. Inspired by a conversation with my daughter about "sliding door moments," I reflect on the choices that shaped who I am today and the life I've built.
It's easy to think our lives are changed by luck, timing, or circumstances, but when I look back, it's the decisions made at pivotal crossroads that stand out the most. Many of those choices felt uncertain, uncomfortable, and even scary at the time, yet they ultimately led me in the direction I needed to go. This episode is an invitation to reflect on the power of your own decisions and the role they play in shaping your future.
