    🎄 Rewind Episode: "It’s All Relative When It Comes to the Relatives" 🎄

    Ah, the holidays! A time for joy, togetherness, and… navigating the delightful dynamics of family gatherings. Whether it’s Uncle Joe’s unsolicited advice, Aunt Karen’s casserole critiques, or co-parenting complexities, the holidays can sometimes feel more like a battlefield than a feast. Sound familiar? 🙃

    As we gear up to gather with friends, family, and e-v-e-n the extended crew, let’s chew on this:
    “Better a dry crust eaten in peace than a house filled with feasting—and conflict.” – Proverbs 17:1 (NLT) 🍞💨

    The holidays are meant to be holy, harmonious, and full of love and laughter—but let’s face it, sometimes they come with a side of stress, a pinch of anxiety, and a dollop of drama. Whether you’re balancing relatives or co-parenting with an ex, setting healthy boundaries is the secret sauce to keeping your sanity and your peace. 🧘‍♀️✨

    💡 In this episode, we’re rewinding to some timeless wisdom on:
    👉 Keeping your perspective on point
    👉 Maintaining harmony (even when the family group text is exploding)
    👉 Setting boundaries that honor your well-being and your joy

    So, grab your plate (even if it’s just dry crust—peace tastes better anyway), and tune in for tips to make your holidays lifted in love, laughter, and just enough grace to get through that second helping of awkward small talk. You’ve got this! 💪

    🎧 Listen now and share with someone who could use a little extra peace on earth this holiday season.

  • Turkey For One, Please!

    Send Sherry a Text Message

    Thanksgiving doesn’t have to look like a Norman Rockwell painting – especially when your guest list is more “table for one” than “feast for twenty.” Whether you’re flying solo, sharing turkey with your little ones, or just figuring out how to reheat last night’s pizza in style, this episode is here to remind you of one simple truth: one is a whole number.

    Join me as we ditch the guilt, burn the rolls, and redefine Thanksgiving into something meaningful, beautiful, and totally yours. Together, we’ll dive into the overlooked blessings, celebrate survival (hello, Pilgrims!), and talk about how inviting Jesus to your table can turn a quiet holiday into a sacred feast.

    Because let’s be honest – it’s not about what’s on the table, but Who’s at it. So grab your stretchy pants, pour yourself a little pumpkin spice something, and tune in for a Thanksgiving episode that’s as heartfelt as it is a wee bit hilarious.

  • Overdrawn, Just Not Overcooked

    Send Sherry a Text Message

    In this lighthearted yet deeply reflective episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, we dive into life’s latest storms and the clean-up they leave behind, exploring what it means to feel “overdrawn” but not overdone. Inspired by the idea that we come into this world with nothing and leave with nothing, we ask: what if we could leave something meaningful behind?

    We’ll discuss what it feels like to be “spent” like a $20 bill and how, even in brokenness, there’s beauty to be found and a chance to build something lasting. We’ll also talk about how to rise above feeling emotionally or financially overdrawn and find renewed purpose in what we’re passing down to the next generation.

    So, what storm are you in right now? What lesson is waiting for you to learn, laugh at, and leave behind as a firm foundation for your kiddos?

  • Storm of Change

    Send Sherry a Text Message

    In this powerful episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, we reflect on the inevitable storms of life—both literal and emotional—and how they force us to confront change. Drawing inspiration from Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl, we explore what it means to find growth and meaning in the most challenging circumstances.

    As my community reels from two back-to-back hurricanes, I share my personal experience of navigating through these storms, the heart-wrenching decision to leave behind my firefighter son, and the lessons God has been teaching me through it all. Sometimes, when we can’t change our circumstances, we’re called to change ourselves.

    This episode is a reminder that even when everything around us feels uprooted, we can find strength in faith, trust in God’s plan, and the power to rebuild—not just our homes, but our hearts.

    Join me as we discuss how to face change head-on and lean into the purpose God has for your life, no matter the storm you’re weathering.

    Send Sherry a Text Message

    In this episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, we dive into a topic every mom wonders about—what’s really going on in the hearts and minds of our kids. As single moms, we often juggle so much that it’s easy to miss the subtle signs our children are giving us. Sometimes, they hold in their feelings, not because they don’t trust us, but because they might not know how to express them.

    Join me, Sherry,  as I unpack the reasons why kids may struggle to open up, how you can read the cues they’re sending, and how to create a safe space for them to share. Plus, discover powerful encouragement for moms who feel the weight of wanting to help but aren’t sure how. Tune in to learn how to connect more deeply with your kids and offer them the emotional security they need.
