Diary of a Post-Single Mom - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Are you a single mom with children leaving home for adulthood? Are you at a loss for words when someone asks, "What are you going to do now?! How about NOW!?!? You're an empty nester! You're free!" They mean well, of course, but you may feel paralyzed and confused, not knowing what to do or how to even get off the couch a lot of days.

Karen Rutherford wrote "Diary of a Post-Single Mom" to share her own candid experiences through what she refers to as Post-Single Motherhood (yes, PSM and PSMing), that time in a single mother's life when her children are growing up and leaving home. And her.

This transition is tough. It's not empty nesting. It's a life change and a grieving process, and it can fiercely impact our mental and physical health.

There's comfort, hope, and humble advice, along with some tears and humor, in this book. If nothing else, please know that:

• You are not alone.
• You may not even be aware of what's happening to you. After all, what single mom has a lot of time to self-care or pay attention to emotions or self-care.
• You might have to start completely over when thinking about YOU again.
• And when you're ready, you may like to connect with other single moms going through the PSM transition.

One reader said, "Reading The Diary of a Post-Single Mom feels like having an extended cup of coffee with a good friend. A friend who has been there before you and can help put a name to all the mixed feelings of losing your teenagers to their own life. So, put on a pot of coffee and meet your new best friend. This book will make you laugh (out loud), shed a tear, and nod your head in agreement. And, you’ll complete the journey with confidence that you’ll survive…and maybe even thrive."
