Single Parent Success Stories

Fiona Kong is a single mom who has been a co-parent for 3 years. She is the founder of the Home Sweet Homes journal, which is a tool that helps approach co-parenting in a loving way for children of divorce. Fiona solved a real problem for kids who live between two homes. Her co-parenting journal captures the daily life of a child, daily affirmations, feelings, activities and which home the child is staying at on a given day. A child whose parents are not together anymore still feels a sense of home as the journal creates that connection and it offers an opportunity of clear communication between the parents.

Fiona's advice for single parents: seek a community, support, and/or therapy. The first few weeks/months are so tough so having someone to talk to is very important. Don't be afraid to ask for help, many people are willing to lend a hand!

Does your child go from zero to sixty in matter of seconds and then act like nothing happened? If you are a parent of a child with big emotions, this episode is for you. Today's guest is Rachel Bailey from Richmond, Virginia. Rachel has a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology, a parenting expert, speaker, a frequent podcast contributor who was featured in 50+ podcasts. She created a Parenting Long Game Methodology and founded an online Parenting Academy that supports thousands of parents for over 15 years.

Rachel's advice for single parents is address your own "Yuck" (flight or fight) because it keeps us stuck in patters we hate but cannot seem to break, rather than fixing a problem for the children, focus on helping them identify and understand their feelings and then think through their own solutions to a problem.

Today's guest is Kristin Menath from San Diego, CA. Kristin is one of three 3 siblings growing up in a single parent household. Kristin shares her experiences, challenges she faced and healing she experienced.

Kristin is a wealth and legacy coach. She helps people break through money attachments or money aversions, because both can hold you back from your potential. She brings spirituality into her coaching because she has found that most people pursue money to as a means to find their purpose, where it should actually be in reverse - you must actively step into your purpose and do great things with what you have now. Then money can help boost what you are already doing.
