I don't care how you feel about single moms and how/why they're in the situation they're in; raising their children on their own--THEY NEED HELP!

This episode hits home for me because I WAS that single mom who needed help while I was doing all that I could to get out of the rut I'd found myself in. I wasn't lazy, I wasn't irresponsible, I wasn't looking for a handout, I was simply trying to pull myself up. I needed a little support along the way, until I could fly on my own. Without caring, generous people in my life along the way, I wouldn't be where I am today. I'm better in my 50, in midlife, because people cared about me. They wanted to see me on the other side of where I was.

With skyrocketing inflation and the rate of pay not increasing along with it, it is extremely difficult for a single mom to thrive. There are single moms all around us who WANT better for themselves and their children. They are TRYING! They are showing up for work, working on building their professional skills, and doing what they can with the time and energy they have to rise above the poverty line. But while they're doing all of this, they could use a little (or a LOT) of support.

Tap in and listen to some ways in which you can support a deserving single mom today. And please let me know your thoughts after you've listened. I can't wait to hear from you!
