Description

Six years ago, Lisa moved to Australia from Germany. Last year she found out she was pregnant in the middle of a motorbike trip from Sydney to Byron Bay. She had unexpectedly fallen pregnant with a man she had just started dating.   All her pre-conceived ideas of how life and family "should" look like, especially when having a baby, were challenged and her journey of thinking about what she should do, and how it should look like had begun.  In this episode, Lisa shares her story. She also talks about how the father of the baby reacted when she told him the news, what her decision process with what to do looked like, and what her co-parenting plan is when not knowing the father of the baby that well. Lisa also gives her advice to women who have also unexpectedly fallen pregnant with someone they've just started dating and who intend on becoming single mothers.  Links mentioned in the episode: To contact Julia, email: julia@singlemothersurvivalguide.com.

Becoming a single mum is one of the most daunting and overwhelming life changes someone will ever go through. Whether you are pregnant or have teenagers, you will most likely be confused and struggling with what to do next. I became a single mum in 2013 when my daughter was just a few months old, and it has been a challenging but rewarding journey ever since. This Podcast (and the website www.singlemothersurvivalguide) was created to assist newly single mothers in all things they may need to know about. SO WHAT IS THE SINGLE MOTHER SURVIVAL GUIDE PODCAST ABOUT? A Podcast for single mums, made by a single mum… The Single Mother Survival Guide Podcast includes a mixture of me babbling about single mums business and interviews and discussions with different people and experts about different topics. First off the ranks this includes an interview with a Wills and Estate lawyer which contains everything YOU need to know about getting a Will done, an interview with a financial adviser on everyday money management, savings, spending and so forth, an interview with an online security expert so that YOU know how to keep yourself secure online, an open interview with a domestic violence survivor and advocate, and another interview with a financial adviser on everything to do with insurance, and what you should think about getting insured to ensure the financial safety for you and your kids. Coming up after that I have chats with people including parenting experts, family lawyers, and a life coach. I also chat about the social stigma of being a single mum, single parent travel, everyday tips to make YOUR life easier, dating, personal budgeting, resources out there to help YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN, child support, domestic violence, successful co-parenting, advantages to being a single mum, and the list goes on…
