    147: When Your Ex Keeps Letting You Down

    It’s one thing to go through a breakup, but it’s another when your ex keeps letting you down, missing agreements, failing to show up, or making life more complicated than it needs to be. In this episode, we talk about how to handle the frustration, protect your emotional energy, and stop letting their behavior control your mood. You’ll hear why it’s not your fault, how to set boundaries without guilt, and why staying in your lane is the best way to focus on your own life and healing. Whether you’re co-parenting, adjusting to single parenting, or just trying to move forward after a messy breakup, this episode gives you practical guidance and emotional support.

    146. I'm Sick of Dealing with My Ex

    There comes a point when “being the bigger person” just feels exhausting. In this episode, I'm talking about that moment when you’re officially fed up with your ex, fed up with the games, the emotional tug-of-war, the unnecessary drama, and the constant feeling that peace is always just out of reach. When every interaction feels even harder than the last, and you start asking yourself… why am I still doing this? I unpack what it really means to hit that wall, the burnout, the frustration, and the quiet realization that sometimes dealing with them costs more than it’s worth. This isn’t about bitterness; it’s about clarity. About recognizing when you’ve had enough and admitting that, sometimes, doing it on your own feels easier, calmer, and healthier than staying stuck in a cycle that never changes. If you’ve ever wished you could just opt out of the chaos and choose yourself instead, this episode is for you.

    145. How to Start Saying No

    Single parents are often great at showing up for everyone else, and terrible at saying no. In this episode, I unpack why saying no feels so uncomfortable, how guilt and people-pleasing keep you stuck, and what it really looks like to set boundaries with your kids, your coparent, and in dating. If you’re exhausted from over giving and ready to protect your time and energy, this episode is for you.

    144. What Healing Really Looks Like After a Breakup

    We see healing all over social media, the quotes, the glow ups, the “I’m healed now” energy, but real healing after a breakup doesn’t usually look like that. It’s messy. It’s up and down. Some days you feel okay, other days you feel like you’ve gone ten steps backwards. And that’s normal. This episode is a bit of a pep talk and a reality check. I’m talking about what healing actually looks like. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing healing “wrong” or felt frustrated that you’re not further along by now, this one’s for you.

    142. Are You Ignoring the Red Flags Because They're Nice?

    When you step back into the dating world, especially after a difficult relationship or breakup, it can be easy to latch onto one thing, they’re nice. They’re kind. They’re not toxic. They treat you better than your ex. And suddenly, that feels like enough to convince yourself they must be “the one.” But is being nice actually enough? In this episode, I unpack why “nice” can feel so compelling when you’re healing, why it often leads you to overlook red flags or misalignment, and how fear of starting over can keep you trying to make something work that doesn’t truly fit. If you’ve ever stayed because someone was “nice,” even when something felt off, this episode is for you. 👉🏻Explore Ways to Create Your Best Single Parent LifeNEW COPARENTING PLAYBOOK (The Ultimate Guide to Texting Your Ex)Free 30 Min Intro Chat Ongoing 1:1 CoachingClarity Support SessionJoin The Facebook Community .................................................................................................................................................. 👉🏻Resources: The Complete Single Parent Reset SessionSHOP: The Single Parents Guide to DatingSHOP: The Single Parents Guide to Single ParentingSHOP: The Single Parents Guide to Self Care Grab your complete eBook Bundle here, 5 eBooks in 1 bundle.....................................................................................................................................................................................
