Welcome back to The Risen Collective podcast. In this deeply personal solo episode, I’m sharing what it was really like to go from being a full‑time single mom doing it all, to having less time with my girls than I ever imagined, and the moment I had to let go of the motherhood I’d spent years building. I talk about the exhaustion of raising two toddlers while working a high‑stakes tech job, the Groundhog Day feeling of single motherhood, and the way a custody shift cracked open everything I believed about being a “good mom.” You’ll hear how rage, grief, and a sense that life wasn’t fair eventually led me into surrender and a new definition of motherhood that honors both me and my daughters. In this episode, I share:
What my daily life looked like as a burned‑out, full‑time single mom
Why losing time with your kids in divorce or custody changes can feel like a betrayal
The inner child rage and “group project” resentment that came up when things felt unfair
How I started processing that anger through movement, boxing, and spiritual reflection
The beginnings of learning to trust that my sacrifice and love still matter, even when the schedule changes
If you’re navigating divorce, custody shifts, single parenthood, or you just feel like life has been wildly unfair, this conversation is for you. My hope is that you feel seen in your grief, your rage, and your process of letting go without abandoning yourself or your kids. ✨ If this episode speaks to you, please like, subscribe, and share it with another parent who needs this message.
