Summary
We’re talking to a solo mom who wrote in real honest: should she try again with her son’s dad? We unpack trust after hurt, how healing changes what you want, and why “for the baby” is not a dating strategy. We keep it tender, tell the truth, and give some practical next steps. Plus, Chocolate Baby Storytime, cleanse life, and Lily the dog leaving sticky-note reminders like a tiny furry manager.
This one is warm, real, and rooted in wisdom. Pull up a chair.
✨ What You’ll Hear
• Naming hurt without living in it
• Signs of real change vs wishful thinking
• Co-parenting well even if romance is paused
• Why a no-dating season can be a reset for your soul
• What a rebuild plan should include if you try again
• A marriage quote that reframes starting over with the same person
• Community updates, Patreon goals, and how to get plugged in
