The Parent Sesh

04 - Single Income

In this week's episode, we have a conversation about the reality of living as a Single Income family.

Peta's journey to opting to be a stay at home mum and support raising our children's lives was a series of events that has proven to be the best decision for our family.

We chat about how society as a whole is set up for dual income families, and how we firmly believed that would be our journey even after Alberto was born.

Overall, we decided that Peta being a stay at home mum would be our family dynamic, and it has really set us on a good path to where we are today. If you are interested in becoming a Single Income family yourself, we give some of our top tips right at the end.

Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!
