39. "Single Mom, By Choice" - Why Lori Decided To Stop Waiting


Listen Later

Lori Leonardo wanted love, marriage, and a kid (in that order).  But when she found herself in her late thirties, divorced, and frustrated with her options, she decided to take matters into her own hands.  In this rewind episode, we’ll hear about Lori’s leap into single motherhood, by choice, including: 

  • How and why she decided to do it
  • Reactions from her friends and family 
  • How she had a very slim chance—one shot, actually—and decided to take it 
  • How she found the resources that made this all possible, and 
  • What she wishes she’d known, plus larger insights for the rest of us who might feel we’ve reached a dead end but might not have considered other, ‘less-traveled’ paths 
  • *PLUS, an update on Lori's life that has significantly affected her parenting plans since this episode aired a year ago*
