## Resource

**Trigger warning, this episode does discuss leaving a DV relationship- please press pause and come back to it when you are ready. This guest also has chosen to stay anonymous for this reason. In this raw and honest conversation, this guest shares her journey of becoming a solo mother after leaving a toxic and abusive relationship. She opens up about the emotional toll of isolation, the grief and resentment that often follow separation, and the difficulty of finding joy in early motherhood. Together, this guest and Rachel explore the mental load of parenting alone, the complexities of dating as a solo mum, and the deep longing for peace and connection. They reflect on the importance of supportive family, the power of community, and the need to speak openly about the harder parts of motherhood. This episode is a reminder that while the road can be lonely, there is strength in sharing our stories—and hope in knowing we're not alone. Hosted on Acast.
