Ep 4 - Your Children and Divorce : Becoming more than just a parent for you children
This week on the show Ang is addressing the huge subject of how divorce affects your children. After Ang’s divorce she was left to raise her two sons. Through this experience she has first hand knowledge of the stigma single mums face, the difficulty in transitioning from being one parent to two and how to help guide your children through the pain. But, Ang has come out the other side and now sees benefits in her relationship with her children that she never expected. In this episode, she shares all her wisdom and learnings so that you, and your children, can also find your happy place.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- As Ang discovered, she didn’t just have to get herself through the hardship of divorce, but she had to help her children through the process as well. She talks about the challenges that brings, such as answering tough questions with honesty.
- One of the biggest challenges Ang found was that she was now acting in the role of two parents. She talks about how she overcame this challenge and some of the difficulties in adopting tasks that are usually left to the male role model.
- Still today Ang finds herself in a constant fight with people about the perception of single mums. Ang details how she deals with this, even when she’s out on a date with a prospective new partner.
- Once on the other side of the emotional pain, Ang discovered many unexpected benefits of being a single mum, which she discusses.
BEST MOMENTS
“You must give your children a place where they can feel safe and their circumstances are as normal as can be.”
“Your own pain is one thing, but the torture you feel when your children’s hearts are bleeding is suffering like no other.”
“When you’re raising children by yourself, the trials and tribulations are magnified, you don’t have anyone to take over or comfort you.”

ABOUT THE PODCAST
Do I Really Hate Men?
Interesting question and one I have asked myself many times. This is not an ‘I hate men’ podcast neither is it just an account of my divorce and the many awful events leading up to and during it. This podcast is a safe space to delve into what happens when relationships end, it provides guidance on how to carry on being a functioning adult and/or Single Mum when you feel broken inside.
This podcast provides hope sprinkled with humour, at times its emotional at times inspiring and at times sad. I have a message to share with women around the world, come join me and your global sisters for a weekly dose of Superhero Mum inspiration and stories.
My mission -to help women and mothers globally to recover from relationship pain, lead meaningful happy lives and inspire their children to succeed.
NOTE – I need you to know that I don’t hate men! It’s important that you know there are many great men out there. Many fantastic fathers and single fathers trying hard to do a great job. I know little about the struggles of single fathers; however, I presume they are numerous common issues we share with these amazing men who strive to do the right thing by their children.
