So you are a single mum… now what? You are likely feeling overwhelmed with what to do regarding Centrelink, child support and legal affairs, among other things.
Becoming a single mum is one of the most daunting and overwhelming life changes someone will ever go through. Whether you are pregnant or have teenagers, you will most likely be confused and struggling with what to do next.
This Guide will take you through the initial practical steps one by one.
Single Mother Survival Guide gives me a practical perk-me-up on days when I need it most. I love the podcast interviews with real personalities most because it goes back to the core of who we all are – mothers who are trying their darnedest to make a life for their kids so that they don’t have to recover from their childhood. Thank you Julia for giving us a voice and sharing your heart.
The Single Mothers Survival Guide is a must for women who need support and guidance. Julia (founder) is a positive and inspirational woman who is dedicated to helping others survive through parenthood. Not only this, but she goes above and beyond to provide answers to questions that any parent would want to know… but may not have the resources to ask. I encourage anyone to follow her podcast and social media, and of course get in touch. She is a friendly, warm and clever woman.
Thank you for putting your life and your heart out there so that women like me who find themselves at the beginning of this exciting and terrifying journey, can go forward feeling understood and less alone, more confident and self assured that "I got this and it's going to be effing fabulous!!"
You're my new hero.
