One way to avoid repeating your past is to raise your standards. Melisa Cameron thought she would escape repeating her family history but ended where she hadn't planned to be.

But she did the work on herself. She learned that by setting her standards higher she's able to live a more fulfilled life while mothering solo.

Takeways:

• If you got through yesterday, you're gonna get through today
• you may think you are messing up but your kids will remember it differently
• pay attention to your mindset
• trust that things will work out

Don't Parent in Silence

Hello Solo Moms. As a solo mom of three adult sons, I understand the challenges you face on a daily basis. As a mentor, my mission is to help you shift your mindset and empower you to take control of your life, to see yourself as God sees you. I know that unresolved trauma can be a heavy burden to carry and parenting alone can be a lonely journey, but it doesn't have to be that way. I want you to know that you are not alone. You have the strength and resilience to overcome your challenges and create the life you desire.
