This week we’re discussing “Becoming Mama-Dad” with Marissa Lee.PAIN POINT
There are many single parents who don’t have a co-parent involved in the lives of their kids. That means one parent needs to take on two very important roles. Today we’re talking about balancing the enormous roles of mom and dad as a single parent, and we’re so excited to discuss the book “Becoming Mama-Dad: How God Fathers Through Single Mothers” written by our very own Solo Parent contributor, Marissa Lee. In her book, she tackles the very big question of: How does one balance taking on the role of both a mother and a father?GUEST BIO
Following marital strife and the shocking death of her husband, Marissa Lee suddenly found herself a single mother to her two sons, aged 10 and 8 at the time. Overwhelmed by her new role and plagued by a sense of inadequacy, she wrote this book about her journey guiding her boys into manhood. Marissa has a day job in finance leadership for a healthcare organization and lives in Franklin, TN with her two dogs, two sons, and second husband.FOR MORE INFORMATION OR TO PURCHASE “Becoming Mama-Dad”

This week we’re discussing FINDING HEALING AFTER BETRAYAL with JILL SAVAGE.PAIN POINT
There is no easy fix for betrayal. When someone we trust betrays us, our entire world is upended. Betrayal is an earthquake that catastrophically upheaves the foundation of our entire life and leaves us broken and trembling in the aftershock. Suddenly, everything we knew to be true is no longer true, leaving us to question everyone and everything. How do you come back from something like that? Can you find true, restorative, lasting healing after betrayal?GUEST BIO
Jill Savage is an author and speaker who is passionate about encouraging families. She is the author/co-author of fourteen books focused on motherhood, family, and marriage including No More Perfect Moms, No More Perfect Marriages (with her husband Mark), and her most recent book Empty Nest, Full Life. Jill and Mark lead a ministry which encompasses their speaking, writing, coaching, and marriage ministry so they can encourage, educate, and equip families.

This week we’re discussing They Won’t Forgive Me…Now What?PAIN POINT
If forgiveness was an easy thing to do, our lives would be much less complicated. But, forgiveness is hard. It takes work.

1) Analyzing the apology
2) Understanding the most hard-to-forgive hurts

We know we’re supposed to love one another. But, does that mean we just ignore how others hurt us and we continue experiencing pain?

This week we’re discussing Moving Forward With Courage with Annie F. Downs.
PAIN POINT
When we become single parents we experience loss of a relationship, spouse, or our envisioned future, and with that often comes the loss of courage. We get stuck and don’t know how to keep going, much less face the challenges ahead. How do we find the courage to move forward toward living our fullest life?
GUEST BIO
Annie F. Downs is a bestselling author, sought-after speaker, and successful podcast host based in Nashville, Tennessee. Engaging and honest, she makes readers and listeners alike feel as if they’ve been longtime friends. Founder of the That Sounds Fun Network—which includes her aptly named flagship show, That Sounds Fun—and author of multiple bestselling books like “100 Days to Brave” and “Remember God,” Annie shoots straight and doesn’t shy away from the tough topics. But she always finds her way back to the truth that God is good and that life is a gift. Annie is a huge fan of laughing with friends, confetti, soccer, and boiled peanuts (preferably from a backroads Georgia gas station).

It’s always inspiring to hear someone confidently say, “This is what I am called to do” or “This is who I am.” Yet, many of us aren’t sure what our true identity is.

After a distinguished law enforcement career in the metro Washington, DC area, he worked in high-conflict areas in the Middle East for almost three decades.

We are all born with a need to connect and form bonds. We want secure relationships that are full of deep trust, safety, comfort, and confidence. But often, our relationships are not what we imagined they would be. Enter: Attachment theory. It refers to the emotional bond between people—and how we give and receive love, beginning at infancy. Our attachment style informs the formation of all our relationships. So how can we use attachment theory in our favor, to deepen our bonds with those we love most?GUEST BIO

This week we’re discussing Using Loneliness to Your Advantage with Dr. Chip DoddPAIN POINT
If there is one word to describe single parenting, it’s “loneliness.” We are reminded throughout the day—in big and small ways—that we don’t have a partner for companionship. Loneliness hits when we miss our kids if we’re co-parenting. And we’re always keenly aware there’s no one to share the responsibilities, experiences, decision-making, and mental load with; no one to laugh (or cry) with after the kids go to bed. How can we use loneliness to our advantage?GUEST BIO
