What's your gut reaction to learning somebody is a single mom? Sympathy? Curiosity? Judgement? Or maybe a mix? You wouldn’t be alone. But we are not homogenous; the face of single motherhood is changing, and not necessarily in the ways you might think.
Some 10 million US households are headed by a single mom, almost 40% of births in 2022 were to unmarried women, and there has been a huge growth in the ranks of the single moms by choice (via IVF or adoption).
This week's guest is Jennifer Muscatel, and instagram influencer and founder of The Single Mom Society who knows more than you would ever want to…about the reality of it all. On today's podcast, we are talking about the trolls who target her for shining a light on deadbeat and absentee dads (and also by the way for having the audacity of post-divorce dating standards). We are talking about the candid yet sarcastic post that took her viral to her own surprise, the most common questions in her DMs, and when she is the hardest on herself.
Like all the single, or divorced, or widowed, or never married, or by IVF or adoption mamas out there living without anyone to share the moments, without backup in the middle of the night, without any milk in the fridge unless you put it there yourself…ever…Jennifer is just putting one foot in front of the other, on the good days as well as the less good ones. Because our babies are worth it. And from where I sit...Jennifer is doing an absolutely knockout job.
