501 - The first weekend without your kids

from Single Mother Survival Guide · host Julia Bass

In this episode, I discuss something many single mums face, but few people prepare you for - your first weekend without your children. The silence, the empty bedrooms, the strange feeling in your body when the house suddenly feels too quiet. It can feel deeply unsettling, like a huge emotional shift that no one warns you about. In this conversation, I share why that first weekend can feel so hard, what's really happening emotionally, and some gentle guidance on what not to do. Plus, what might help instead as you navigate this new experience. Links mentioned in the episode:  Download the E-book, I'm A Single Mum...
