I’m sure you’ve seen the new Tyler Perry movie “Straw” starring Taraji P. Henson —it struck a serious chord. Single motherhood. Eviction. Trauma. A sick child. Racist cops. Mean bosses. Barely making ends meet. Feeling like no one sees you or understands your struggle.

This episode, we’re diving ALL the way in. Join me and special guest Jessica V. Taylor, MSW, LCSW-C, LICSW, founder of Therapy For Black Women and a single mom herself, as we unpack the mental load and mental health of single moms—what’s silently weighing us down and how to find JOY again in the midst of it all.
