"Walk Gently and Speak Kindly" Thoughts on Single Motherhood—with Tammica Dowd

What got you through the hardships of your childhood?

When Tammica Dowd was young and living in a group home, at times she’d be locked in a closet by a counselor. In order to keep her mind strong and pass time, she envisioned what she wanted for her future.

-Graduate high school.

-Marry her dream guy.

-Have five children who’d never go through what she went through.

-Go to Maui.

-Win a Grammy.

All her goals but one were achieved! (But don’t count her out for that Grammy.)

She did not see divorce coming. 

Now, as a single mother of five young children, she has advice and experience to share, including how helping her children through life events has allowed for personal healing.

Sometimes healing comes with helping someone through the experience that caused our trauma. 

Join me and Tammica Dowd, as she speaks to the shame of single motherhood.
