I polled you guys and the majority of you are terrified of doing motherhood alone. A close second was waiting too long... we'll get into that one later.

Let's get into the reality of doing it all alone... this one was hard for me to admit!

Normally the Formula is fully self-paced with no direct access to me.
But for December only, I’m turning it into a collective, supported experience for the women who are done waiting and ready to build their 2026 intentionally.

This is for the women who are ready to stop circling the idea of motherhood on their own terms and actually step into it 🤰

We don’t talk about this enough…

What it actually costs you to wait.
Not just time, but your peace, your confidence, your emotional bandwidth, your dreams, your fertility window, your LIFE.

This episode is the one women usually only admit to themselves in private.
The moment you wake up and realize you’ve been putting your entire life on hold for a partner who may never arrive... and the world STILL tells you to “be patient.”

I’m done with that conversation.
And in today’s episode, we’re being HONEST about what waiting can cost you.

If you’ve ever felt the pull toward motherhood…
If you’re tired of waiting for someone to choose you…
If you’re scared to choose yourself…
This is the episode you listen to FIRST.

It’s honest.
It’s clarifying.
And it might be the thing that changes your entire timeline.

I’m doing something different this week…
I opened a private Substack space called The Keep Him Collective. Basically, a group chat for women building life on their own terms.

I’ll be sharing stories I’ve never shared publicly... think ex-fiance and separation tea, secret dating era, courtrooms, meeting my ex’s new partner, an old daycare worker that gave me weird vibes… all of it 🤪

If you’ve ever wanted the “best friend on the couch at 11pm” version of me, she’s in there.

They say single moms are lonely, struggling, or missing something, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. In this empowering episode, I share the real story behind solo motherhood: freedom, purpose, and deep fulfillment. Whether you’re a single mom by choice (SMBC), newly solo, or simply curious about what independent motherhood actually looks like, this conversation will challenge stereotypes and help you see why doing life on your own terms is the ultimate power move.

✨ In this episode:

• Why single motherhood is not a “last resort”
• How to build joy, confidence, and independence as a solo mom
• The freedom and emotional richness that come with choosing yourself
• Real talk about identity, empowerment, and breaking generational patterns

💬 Tune in for a perspective shift that celebrates single moms everywhere...not as victims, but as visionaries!

So many people confuse decentering men with hating men... but that’s not what this is about. In this episode, I break down what it really means to stop placing men at the center of our choices, our timing, and our worth. We’ll talk about how decentering men changes motherhood, dating, and even how we raise our sons.

This isn’t about bitterness. It’s about sovereignty. It’s about shifting the cultural narrative so women (and future generations) are free to build lives and families on their own terms.

✨ In this episode you’ll hear:

• The difference between decentering and devaluing men
• How centering men shows up in subtle, everyday choices
• Why decentering is actually good for men too
• What it looks like to raise boys without patriarchal pressure
• How sovereignty becomes a gift to yourself, your kids, and your relationships

If you’ve ever wondered what it means to truly live with yourself at the center of your story, this conversation will shift everything.

Are we witnessing the end of the "nuclear family" as we know it? In today’s episode, I dive into the rise of solo motherhood by choice and why more women are choosing sovereignty, legacy, and freedom over waiting to be “picked.”

We’ll explore:
✨ Why the nuclear family model was never universal.
✨ How fertility technology + financial independence are rewriting timelines.
✨ What kids actually need to thrive (hint: it’s not two parents at any cost).
✨ The myths about single moms that desperately need to die.
✨ Why this movement signals a cultural revolution far bigger than motherhood.

This isn’t the death of family, it’s the rebirth of family.
Solo motherhood is proof that love, stability, and legacy don’t need a ring attached.

We’re building a movement here, and I’d love for you to be part of it.

Deciding to become a single mom by choice can feel huge, emotional, and at times overwhelming. How do you know you’re making the right decision... and how do you make sure you won’t regret it later?

In this episode, I share the exact process I used before taking the leap into solo motherhood. From getting clear on your why, to facing your fears head-on, to imagining your future in both directions, I’ll walk you through the steps that gave me clarity, peace, and confidence in my choice.

Whether you’re just starting to think about this path, already exploring clinics and donors, or simply curious about what the journey looks like, this conversation will help you feel more grounded and empowered in your decision-making.

✨ What you’ll hear in this episode:

• How to separate the desire for a child from the pressure of waiting for a partner
• A reality check on finances, support systems, and resources
• Why fear doesn’t mean “stop”, it often means you’re stepping into growth
• The mindset shift that helps you own your decision with zero regret

If you’ve ever wondered, “Will I look back and regret this?”... this episode is for you!

I wasn’t just choosing motherhood when I became a single mom by choice... I was choosing to break cycles! This episode is all about how I’m rewriting generational patterns and building a legacy of freedom, joy, and sovereignty.

In this episode, I share how I’m breaking generational trauma and negative patterns through the way I’m raising my kids, building legacy, and redefining family on my own terms. From parenting with presence to raising kids that know they're awesome, this conversation goes beyond my personal story, it’s about rewriting what motherhood can look like for all of us.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of your family’s history or wondered how to create a new legacy, this episode will give you both perspective and power.

✨ Let’s talk about:

• The cycles I refused to pass down
• How trauma shows up in parenting and how I respond differently
• Building joy, abundance, and sovereignty into my family culture
• Why SMBC is not just a fertility choice, it’s a legacy choice

This isn’t about keeping a man. It’s about keeping your power, your freedom, your joy, and your vision for what comes next.

This isn’t just another podcast, it’s the start of a movement. 

In episode one, I share why I chose to build my family and my freedom without waiting for a man, and what “Keep Him” really means. If you’ve ever felt like you were “too much,” “too ambitious,” or “too independent,” this episode will flip that script. Keep Him is about women like us keeping our power, our legacy, and our joy. Hit play and step into the revolution 👯‍♀️🎙️🔥
