Use Anchoring to Build a Strong Life Foundation w/Helena Smolock

The solo mom experience no matter how long ago it happened leaves a lasting impression. Because that experience gives us the ability to reach into the very depths of our being and pull out the strength and tenacity necessary to raise children solo.

Today's interview is with Helena Smolock who is no longer a solo mom but she shares what that period of her life was like. I'm happy to share these interviews with women who have gone through the experience and come out on the other side better, stronger, and more alive. Living life on their own terms.

These stories are relevant because we know a change is coming to our lives. It won't always be a struggle. We can learn that from others.
