We don\u2019t know what we\u2019re going to do or where we\u2019re going to live. It can be difficult to adjust to being your own boss and taking care of yourself \u2013 especially when you have kids!Right around this time last year, I was in the process of figuring out how I wanted to spend my life. I was ready to make some changes, start a new chapter in my life, and find solace in my true identity. This past February, my baby girl joined me on tour as a family. My husband and I are still getting used to being a team again, but it\u2019s so worth it! As a single parent, there\u2019s not really much that amazes me anymore! Because now, with my little one at home and me touring full-time, it\u2019s just me and the camera for the majority of our session together!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"whatisasinglemom\">What is a single mom?<\/h2>\n<p>A single parent is a person whose parent(s) are not married to another parent.

I have to train my 8-month-old baby to walk on her own. I have to take care of my elderly parents. I have to take care of myself and my kids. And then there\u2019s being a single parent.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve found that being single and having my own life has been the most fulfilling journey of my life so far! It\u2019s been an incredible journey of self-discovery, self- LOVE, and self-acceptance.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been an incredible journey, and I\u2019m so glad I get to share it with all of you!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"findingacceptanceinmyfamily\">Finding acceptance in my family<\/h2>\n<p>One of the things that makes me happiest in my life is having my family and friends around me. Growing up, I was really alone in this world. My family was mostly away from home. I never really knew anyone that special until I met my husband. Then, with my child on the way, I became a valuable member of the extended family.<\/p>\n<p>As a single parent, having this support network is amazing. It\u2019s really helped me through some really tough times. Having a support system is incredibly important, because without it, it\u2019s really difficult to find your own peace.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"afewthingsyoushouldknowaboutmeasasinglemom\">A few things you should know about me as a single mom!<\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"checkoutsomeoftheothersingleswhoaredoingit\">Check out some of the other singles who are doing it:<\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"howtogetmotivatedtofinishwhatyoustarted\">How to get motivated to finish what you started!<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source: Pexels For some of us, life as a single parent is completely new.
