TOPIC & GUEST
This week we are discussing “How Suffering Builds Worth” with Jamie Winship
PAIN POINT
Understanding our worth as single parents is essential because it shapes how we navigate every aspect of life, from the way we see ourselves to the relationships we build. When we don’t recognize our worth, it can lead to self-doubt, unhealthy boundaries, and feelings of isolation. But knowing our worth helps us set the right tone in our homes, make confident decisions, and build connections that are healthy and life-giving. So, how do we build a healthy sense of worth when so much hurt and betrayal has eroded it?

TOPIC
This week we’re discussing Practical Tips on Rebuilding Self-Worth.
PAIN POINT
So often, single parents are starting from a deficit when it comes to self-worth. It could be due to an unhealthy relationship or simply our experiences as a single parent. Whatever the reason, our self-worth often declines drastically when we become a single parent. When we’re starting from a deficit, where do we even start the journey to self-worth? How can we rebuild our self-worth in actionable, practical ways?
3 MAIN POINTS
Today, we cover three main points:
1) Difference between self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-worth
2) Evaluating your own self-worth
3) Doing the work: Rebuilding self-worth

TOPIC

PAIN POINT
Turns out drama doesn’t hit its peak in high school; it continues on throughout our life for as long as we are in relationship with others.

How can we minimize any potential drama that comes up and respond to it in a healthy and balanced way?
3 MAIN POINTS
Today, we cover three main points:
1) The lure of drama

TOPIC & GUEST
This week we’re discussing “Becoming Mama-Dad” with Marissa Lee.
PAIN POINT
There are many single parents who don’t have a co-parent involved in the lives of their kids. That means one parent needs to take on two very important roles. Today we’re talking about balancing the enormous roles of mom and dad as a single parent, and we’re so excited to discuss the book “Becoming Mama-Dad: How God Fathers Through Single Mothers” written by our very own Solo Parent contributor, Marissa Lee. In her book, she tackles the very big question of: How does one balance taking on the role of both a mother and a father?
GUEST BIO
Following marital strife and the shocking death of her husband, Marissa Lee suddenly found herself a single mother to her two sons, aged 10 and 8 at the time. Overwhelmed by her new role and plagued by a sense of inadequacy, she wrote this book about her journey guiding her boys into manhood. Marissa has a day job in finance leadership for a healthcare organization and lives in Franklin, TN with her two dogs, two sons, and second husband.

TOPIC & GUEST
This week we’re discussing FINDING HEALING AFTER BETRAYAL with JILL SAVAGE.
PAIN POINT
There is no easy fix for betrayal. When someone we trust betrays us, our entire world is upended. Betrayal is an earthquake that catastrophically upheaves the foundation of our entire life and leaves us broken and trembling in the aftershock. Suddenly, everything we knew to be true is no longer true, leaving us to question everyone and everything. How do you come back from something like that? Can you find true, restorative, lasting healing after betrayal?
GUEST BIO
Jill Savage is an author and speaker who is passionate about encouraging families. She is the author/co-author of fourteen books focused on motherhood, family, and marriage including No More Perfect Moms, No More Perfect Marriages (with her husband Mark), and her most recent book Empty Nest, Full Life. Jill and Mark lead a ministry which encompasses their speaking, writing, coaching, and marriage ministry so they can encourage, educate, and equip families. They have five children and eight grandchildren and live in Normal, Illinois.

TOPIC
This week we’re discussing They Won’t Forgive Me…Now What?
PAIN POINT
If forgiveness was an easy thing to do, our lives would be much less complicated. But, forgiveness is hard. It takes work. It’s so much more than a casual “I’m sorry.” When we do take steps toward being forgiven, how do we live in the tension of doing the work and still showing up … even when someone won’t forgive us?
3 MAIN POINTS
Today, we cover three main points:
1) Analyzing the apology
2) Understanding the most hard-to-forgive hurts
3) Taking stock of what you can control

TOPIC
This week we’re discussing Benefits of The Relationship Between Justice and Forgiveness
PAIN POINT
We know we’re supposed to love one another. But, does that mean we just ignore how others hurt us and we continue experiencing pain? Many of us may think if we forgive, then we are not supposed to seek justice—in other words, forgive and forget. But what does it look like to forgive and seek justice simultaneously?
3 MAIN POINTS
Today, we cover three main points:
1) Forgiveness and a desire for justice can co-exist
2) What forgiveness is not
3) Ways to pursue justice

TOPIC
This week we’re discussing How to Become a Forgiving Person
PAIN POINT
We aren’t born with a natural propensity toward forgiveness; it’s a trait that we have to develop because it runs counter to our instincts. As single parents, we often have significant trauma, pain, and obstacles that make forgiveness especially hard—it seems there are often more reasons to not forgive than to actually forgive. How can we become a more forgiving person?
3 MAIN POINTS
Today, we cover three main points:
1) Why forgiveness is so hard
2) Our need for and benefits of forgiveness
3) Boundaries in forgiving
