We are approaching winter season and there are so many common childhood illnesses that children are prone to, even in the middle of this COVID-19 pandemic.  If you have ever found yourself up late at night not knowing how to make your child feel more comfortable and questioning if you should take them in to be seen then listen to this episode.

Remember that although I am a board-certified pediatrician the content of this episode and all episodes are NOT direct medical advice and does not establish any patient-physician relationship. Always seek medical advice from your child's licensed physician.

Happy National Working Parent's Day.  In this episode I am sharing some of my personal experiences in how I have dealt with the guilt of being a working mom, especially a working single mom in the middle of a pandemic. 

"We should go after our dreams and not be apologetic about it, but it’s scary. Whether you want to work or not, you have to do what makes you a fuller person. You have to love yourself." – Catherine Reitman

If you didn't know September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month.  The toll-free national hotline number is 1-800-273-8255!!!

You are never alone.  You are more than enough. 

I would love to hear from you.  Send me an email at [email protected] and tell me what other motherhood, mindset or medicine (pediatrics) topics you would love for me and my guests to discuss on future episodes.

Remember you are MORE THAN ENOUGH,  and you deserve to THRIVE and not just survive in your single motherhood journey.

Yay, we made it to the end of season one!!! Just three months ago I press "record" for the first time EVER!!  You can totally hear me pressing the button too..  Hey, it's all about first messy steps right.  In this last season I have learned so much more about purpose, clearly I thought I already knew what was up but baaaaaaaby I am here to tell you that the more you COURAGEOUSLY take forward action the clearer you get about who you are and who you were called to serve and how to create impact!!!

In this episode I am highlight the wins of being a brand new podcaster, while still full-time working and you guessed it.....being a single mom. Doing it all, most of the time, because I am on a mission to influence other single mom's to stop living in survival mode and to start THRIVING in their purpose!!

If you've been rocking with me since the trailer episode,  you're the real MVP.. If this is your first time listening,  Hey Queen, Hey!!  You are totally welcomed here and I am so glad to be able to serve you.  

Stay tune for season two this summer!!
