“Once upon a time I was perfectly happy—complacent even. But then my world came crashing down and I was suddenly a single mum of two small children, losing sleep over how to pay the bills. The things I learned allowed me to retain my sanity, self-esteem, and sense of humour and to help my children get through the experience. I discovered how to release the traumatic experiences and emotions that were holding me back and find more fun, fulfillment, and balance in my life (not to mention my lovely husband!)”

You can build a happy new life!
 
Are you a stressed-out single mum, juggling childcare, work and home—and struggling to cope with all the emotional and practical demands on you?

How do I get over this split and move on?
Why is my child behaving like this and what should I do about it?
How will I feel when my kids meet his new girlfriend?
How do I deal with all the legal stuff?
How can I manage on this little money?
How can I have more energy when I’m so tired all the time?

Can I ever forgive my ex?
Can I really be single and happy?
