When was the last time you truly paused and asked yourself, "How am I really doing?"
As single mums, it's easy to get caught in survival mode; you're holding everything together for everyone else, while quietly ignoring how you're actually feeling. But when we suppress emotions, they don't go away - they simply pile up, turning into overwhelm, burnout, or resentment.

This episode is your reminder that emotions aren't the enemy - ignoring them is. So, take a moment for you, and let's learn how to tune in, reset, and move forward with more self-awareness and compassion.
