Single Mom Smiling | Arming Warriors in the Battle for Marriage & Family

Shock struck as the news of innocent children gunned down while celebrating their first back-to-school Mass of the 2025-26 school year spread.

Anger.

Shock.

Rumors.

What we know as Catholics is that evil is real, and sometimes it rears its ugly head in horrifying ways.

In this case, evil was visible and loud, but much sneakier, quieter evil led up to the shooter's actions. Many Catholics want to believe they would be heroes in big tragedies but shy away from confronting sneaky, quiet evil.

God does not give us a spirit of fear though!

He gives us faith in the fire and strength of martyrs.

God gives you the power to face many spiritual battles on your own.

At the end of today's episode, I will ask you to pray two powerful prayers - one for the two souls lost so young and one for you to pray a hedge of protection around your own family, home, schools, Churches, and yourself.

The war is real, but you have tools! As a coach who has been trained by US Special Forces and spiritual leaders, I want to help you wage war on the enemies holding you back. Send me an email at [email protected] to ask about coaching with me.

God Bless...

Making and keeping friends as a single mom can be HARD!

Single moms are often exhausted and overwhelmed.

They often question their self worth and ability to contribute value to conversations when their thinking is foggy from so many things they need to keep track of.

Many single moms, and women in general, have expectations about what kind of friends they "should" have or what kind of friend they "should" be.

Instead, Jesus tells you to go - invite the poor, the lame, the blind, and the crippled.

Whether you are the one doing the inviting or you feel like you are now part of the poor, lame, blind, and crippled of today's world and wonder why anyone would want to associate with you, take a risk!

Reach out to a potential friend today and start building that connection patiently over time.

As a coach, I help women silence fear and doubt that keep them from making connections and building lasting friendships so they can learn to laugh freely with a trusted friend again.

God Bless...

The pursuit of happiness helped build America.

Happiness is what many of us try to pursue today too.

But, we seldom understand what happiness meant when the Founders added it to the Declaration of Independence.

We understand the happiness we pursue today even less. 

In both cases, the happiness we pursue is actually a joy that is not dependent on external forces or time limitations.

It is a joy that is resilient and everlasting and built on the Love of God.

In today's episode, learn the difference between happiness and joy and how you can grow in joy in any circumstances.

If you'd like help making your own happiness and growing in everlasting joy, I would love to work with you! Send me an email at [email protected] or use any of the links below.

What battles do you face as a single mom?

Do you fight your ex, the court system, the schools or teacher unions, or maybe even your own kids?

It can be tempting to fight what is right in front of us, but Jesus tells us to focus on Him instead.

If we want to get to Heaven, we need to recognize we are in a spiritual war for our souls and not all souls who cry "Lord Lord" will go to Heaven.

There is still hope though!

Your and your children's can still get to Heaven!

Are you wondering what God's plans for you are?

Do you wonder what He's thinking and how He can allow you to suffer so much when you've tried so hard to do everything right?

Are you struggling and wondering when relief and a plan will come?

Maybe you're thinking what no single mom wants to admit to thinking...that God doesn't keep His promises.

YIKES!

Catholics claim we don't believe in the prosperity Gospel, but when it comes to families and what we think we are "owed," maybe we do. 

If you struggle to focus on God's real promises for you and the goodness He wants for you in this life and in the next rather than being discouraged by the false prophets (or profits!) of today's messaging, send me an email and let's start working together!  

God Bless...

It's easy to fall into the comparison trap.

We see ourselves doing it with friends and strangers on social media, but it is more destructive when single moms compare their lives to their exes'.

Instead, single moms should be encouraged to build wealth on Earth in order to build the Kingdom of God. For Jesus tells you not to be foolish with what you are given, but instead to store up treasures in Heaven. 

That is something only you and God can do, and you have an advantage your ex will never have. You have one gift, no man, not even your child's father, can ever compete with. Do you know what your gift is?

If you want help putting together a financial plan - yes, even on a very tight income - or if you want help discovering God's gifts to you - yes, even in this difficult period He gives you gifts, email me for coaching at [email protected]

God Bless...
