As a “young single mom, I wasn’t always this calm, confident, and “okay” with this stage of life. I had questions, issues, breakdowns, and many “I just need to get a good cry out” moments. But, had I known about blogs back then, chile, life would have gotten better…sooner.

When I began writing my truth two years ago, I didn’t know I wanted to write a book or start a business. I just knew I had to share how I overcame the defeated mentality, the bad attitude, the woe is my mindset and the I hate men aura that surrounded me. No, I was healed and ready to put my brand of motivation into the universe to help somebody. Here I am 2 years later, coaching, speaking, teaching and appreciating the drama and the hell because it built me into a strong mama. Your process will due the same. But, a little help never hurt anybody.

Below, I’ve curated a list of ten blogs/websites I recommend you use to encourage you, make you laugh, help you work on your physique, self-care and I believe are all around great blogs for moms like you.
