Exploring the motherhood path as a solo mama...
|
Are you ready to be a mother but single?
Are you worried that by the time you find the 'right' relationship, it might be too late?  My journey as a solo mama...
|
 Have you thought about 'going solo' but are terrified and can't figure out if it's the right decision for you?
Maybe you are pregnant or a new mom and suddenly find yourself single - and are determined to create a loving, fulfilling life for you and your child. |
I know what it feels like to walk a path that is different than the stereotypical boy meets girl, they fall in love, get married, have kids, and hopefully live happily ever after! I found myself in my late 30’s, single, knowing I wanted to be a mother and also knowing I was not interested in a mediocre relationship.
 |
I am proud to say that I am now the mother to a wonderful six year old boy whom I conceived intentionally as a single woman. Since embarking on this journey myself, I have been offering group support and individual counselling to other single women who are contemplating motherhood or are new mothers.
|
While I don’t believe it is the right choice for everyone, I believe becoming a mother is a wonderful part of being a woman, and deserves to be contemplated regardless of relationship status. Although my experience has been in working with women in this, I believe that much of the same is true for men. I work and live from the knowledge that as single parents, we can create lives for our children in which they can flourish.
 ...to grow sweet fruit, nourish the roots.
