What if the reason your days feel so heavy… isn’t everything you have to do—but everything you expect them to be?

In this episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, Sherry shares a powerful mindset shift that is changing the way she lives, shows up, and experiences everyday life. Instead of chasing the idea of a “good day,” she’s choosing something different—and it’s lighter, more intentional, and way more freeing.

If you’re a single mom feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or constantly disappointed when life doesn’t go as planned, this episode will challenge you to rethink how you approach your day—and give you practical tools to shift it.

You’ll learn:

• Why expectations can quietly weigh you down
• How to start your day with intention instead of pressure
• A simple but powerful question that can transform your mindset
• How to show up differently in stressful moments, conversations, and even dating
• A practical exercise to help you see it, feel it, and speak it
• How to model and teach this mindset to your kids so they can build emotional resilience early

This isn’t about having a perfect day.
It’s about choosing your experience—no matter what the day brings.

✨ Whether you’re navigating co-parenting, work stress, parenting challenges, or just trying to keep it all together—this episode will help you release the pressure and step into your day with purpose, peace, and confidence.

Feeling stuck? Same spot, same thoughts, no movement?
Yeah… we’re not staying there.

In this episode, we’re talking about how to move—even when it’s scary, unclear, and far from perfect. Because stuck isn’t your story… it’s just where you’ve been sitting too long.

You are not who you were…

But a lot of us are still living like we are.

“I was hurt…”
“I was left…”
“I was the one who didn’t get it right…”

👉 Maybe not in pigtails anymore… but still carrying it around in a ponytail.

But God didn’t say “I WAS.”

👉 He said I AM.

And if He lives in you…

you don’t have to keep living from your past.

👉 I AM rebuilt… I AM.
👉 I AM chosen… I AM.
👉 I AM free… I AM.

Spring break can turn a single mom’s routine upside down—more snacks, less structure, and a whole lot of chaos. In this Power-Up Pep Talk, Sherry shares encouragement from Luke 1:45, reminding moms that sometimes faith doesn’t mean having every answer—it simply means holding onto one promise from God.

Together, we reflect on Mary’s faith while she was still carrying the promise of Jesus and how that same kind of trust can carry us through our own uncertain seasons. With Easter approaching and the days getting longer, this short devotional offers practical encouragement, a simple “Promise Post” activity you can do with your kids during spring break, and a reminder that God finishes what He starts.

If you need a little fuel for your week, this pep talk is for you.

At some point, every woman has to decide what’s non-negotiable — not out of pride, but out of wisdom.

In this episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, we’re talking about the lines that protect your faith, your healing, your relationships, your children, and your future. Because if you don’t define what’s foundational in your life, life will define it for you.

We’ll unpack how we negotiate with ourselves, why silence can cost more than truth, and how your boundaries today shape the adults you’re raising tomorrow.

This isn’t about building walls.

It’s about building standards.

So the question is simple:

What’s your non-negotiable?

🎙️ Move, Mountain | Faith, Authority & Mustard Seed Belief for Christian Single Moms

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “If anyone says to this mountain, ‘Move,’ it will move” (Mark 11:22–24)?

In this powerful episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, we unpack the biblical context behind mountain-moving faith and what it means for Christian single moms navigating fear, finances, co-parenting, and rebuilding after divorce.

This isn’t about manifestation or hype.
It’s about identity, spiritual authority, and mustard seed faith (Matthew 17:20).

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or quietly believing small stories about yourself, this episode will challenge you to stop negotiating with your mountain and start speaking to it.

You don’t need giant faith.
You need alignment with God.

And when you begin speaking truth over your past, present, and future… something shifts.

Move, mountain.

Love doesn’t start with a person—and it definitely doesn’t start on Valentine’s Day.

This episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing is not about dating advice, relationship status, or pressure to be “okay” with where you are. It’s about your heart—and where it’s been drawing love from.

Whether you’re dating, healing, resting, hopeful, guarded, or choosing peace right now, this conversation meets you where you are without trying to move you anywhere. We talk about why people make terrible sources, why your heart may feel tired instead of broken, and what shifts when love stops being something you look for and starts being something you live from.

Rooted in faith and honest reflection, this episode reframes love away from being chosen, pursued, or claimed—and back to its true source. Because when love has a steady source, everything else stops carrying the weight of your worth.

No sappy clichés. No Valentine’s Day pressure. Just a freeing reminder that you’re not waiting for love to begin—it already has.
