Dating as a Single Mom with @Honestly.Kaitlyn’s Kaitlyn Nilles


Listen Later

Love isn’t enough -- especially when you have kids.


Love doesn’t pay the bills or pick up the domestic load at home. 


And often, that lack of connection (it’s never just one thing) leads to the eventual breakdown of a relationship. 


@Honestly.Kaitlyn’s Kaitlyn Nilles says it was a myriad of issues that led to her divorce and life as a single mom of two young children. 


Now, Kaitlyn is opening up about what it’s been like to date as a single mom, why divorce was the best thing that happened to her….and the plot twist that not even she saw coming. 


Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It.
