Being A Single Mother - Self Love & Self Care


Listen Later

In this episode, Amy wants to share her journey and experience in being a single mother. She talks about life in her 20’s and 30’s and how she came to discover that being a mother was part of the life she wanted to create for herself. This made her realise that we all should, and often do, create the life we want to live and this is something she wants her daughter to live her life by, to pursue what makes her feel joy.
 
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Amy discovered that lifting others up, sharing information and supporting people take the next steps in their lives is what makes her feel good. Helping others has always helped her feel better when she has been struggling in life.
Growing up, Amy didn’t really think about children or becoming a mother. She generally didn’t spend much time around children, it’s just how her life was. When she got into her 30s she was occupied with so many other things but noticed a lot of her friends and peers having children and she started thinking about how she would like this for her life too.
Many women often easily step into the role of wanting to nurture and be a caregiver to a child. This was Amy’s experience but she still struggled with relationships and finding a good partner who she would want to have a child with.
To be truly fulfilled and happy we have to create the life we want to lead, to follow our ‘heart song’. If we do this then we will be living in line with our values and feel aligned.
