X AND THE SINGLE MOM PODCAST Single Mom Summer Reset: From Overwhelmed to Organized | EP47 Hello, my Queens and welcome to another episode of X.S.M. (X and the Single Mom) Podcast!! In today’s episode we wrap up our discussion on our “Summer Mom Reset mini-series, I am starting off with a question we need to ask ourselves, have you ever been busy from the moment your feet hit the floor until bedtime and still felt as though you did not get enough done? Well, I know that was my reality for many, many years. Think about it, you handle all the meals, made all the appointments, handle messages, problems, paperwork, and all the small things nobody notices until they are not done. Yet you still ended the day wondering, “What did I actually accomplish?” (Does that sound familiar)? Queens this does not mean your lazy or disorganized. It may mean you are carrying too many responsibilities in your mind at the same time. Today, as we close our “Single Moms Summer Reset series”, we are talking about moving from overwhelmed to organized - not with a perfect schedule, but with simple systems that make life feel more manageable.

The Single Mom Summer Reset - Reconnecting with Yourself - EP46
The Single Mom Summer Reset Mini Series– EP46 The Woman Beyond Mom: Reconnecting with Yourself Hey, Queens. Welcome back to X and the Single Mom podcast, where we tell the truth with a little sugar and touch of spice. Today we are continuing our Single Mom Summer Reset. In the first episode in this series, we talked about reclaiming your time, your energy, and your peace. Today, we are going one step deeper. We are talking about the woman beyond Mom—and how to reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have been pushed aside while you handled everybody and everything. Let me say this clearly: being a mother is an important part of who you are, but it is not the only part of who you are. You were a whole woman before motherhood. You are still a whole woman during motherhood. And you deserve a life that allows every part of you to breathe. Call to action: Visit xandthesinglemom.com.

The Single Mom Summer Reset - Reclaiming your time, energy and your peace
The Single Mom Summer Reset Mini Series: EP45 Reclaiming some of your time, energy and your peace!!! Hello, my Queens and welcome to another episode of X.S.M. (X and the Single Mom) Podcast!! This episode is about “The Single Mom Summer Reset” time to reclaim some of your time, energy and your peace. Now, I know the word “reset” can make it sound as though you need a new planner, a perfect schedule, a clean house, a new body, and fifteen new goals. However, that is not what I mean. A reset can simply mean stopping long enough to ask yourself: What is working? What is draining me? What am I doing because it truly matters and what am I doing because I feel guilty, pressured, or afraid of disappointing somebody? Because the truth is, Queens, you can be busy all day and still feel as though you accomplished nothing for yourself. You can love your children deeply and still need quiet (meaning both things can be true at the same time) For another example, you can be grateful for your life and still admit that you are exhausted. And you can be a responsible mother without making yourself available to everybody, all the time. Thank you for being part of this journey. If this episode speaks to you, share it with another mom who needs it.

Super Mother, Not the Father: A Mother's Day Special for Single Moms | EP41

Super Mother, Not the Father: A Mother's Day Special for Single Moms | EP41
Hello, my Queens and welcome to another episode of X.S.M. (X and the Single Mom) Podcast Episode 41: Mother’s Day Special | Single Moms – Super Moms & That Is Enough Happy Mother’s Day to every mother, this podcast is for every single mom, tired mom, praying mom, the mom who keeps showing up even when life feels heavy. In this special Mother’s Day episode of X and the Single Mom, we are celebrating the beauty, strength, sacrifice, and sacred responsibility of motherhood. But we are also having an honest conversation about a phrase many single moms have said before: “I’m the mother and the father.” This episode lovingly reminds single moms that you do not have to carry a title that was never yours to prove your strength. A father’s role is a separate role with separate responsibilities, and trying to carry both can create an emotional burden you were never meant to bare. - You are not the mother and the father. - You are the mother. - And motherhood is powerful all by itself. In this episode, we talk about honoring your role, releasing unnecessary pressure, understanding the difference between standing in the gap and becoming someone, you are not, and remembering that being a super mom does not mean being everything to everybody: You are allowed to need help, build support, admit that one person cannot (nor should they want to) replace an entire role. Remember, especially on this day. You are still worthy of honor. This Mother’s Day, the message is simple: You are not a substitute father. You are not required to be two people, trying to take on dual rolls. Most of you are super moms and that is more than enough. Thank you for being part of this journey. If this episode speaks to you, share it with another mom who needs it.

Hello Queens. In this episode of X and the Single Mom, we unpack some of the difference between being a Single Mom and being a Single - Single Mom (aka Solo Mom). Sounds like a play on words, well it is but, not really. There is a distinction. Your host, Yasmin dives into what it really means when you're parenting solo - living solo with your child(ren). We'll explore why the title/position carries a distinction between the two terms. How would / or do you even think about this? I have to thank Tia Mowry for this topic.
