Single Mom Saga — Episode 4: The Guilt Episode

Single mom guilt is a different kind of heavy —the kind that shows up between breaths, between tasks, between heartbeats…and nobody talks about. Today, we are.

In this episode of Single Mom Saga, Teresa breaks down one of the most universal, unspoken experiences of single motherhood: guilt — the loud kind, the quiet kind, the everyday kind, and the kind you pretend isn’t eating at you.

From the guilt of dating again, to wondering if you “chose wrong,” to juggling time and money in a world where moms are expected to stretch themselves thinner than humanly possible — this episode dives deep into the emotional gymnastics single moms perform every single day.

Teresa gets real about the pressure to heal before dating, the criticism single moms face from people who weren’t living in their homes or their relationships, and the complicated truth about loving your kids but not loving the man you had them with.

She explores the constant guilt tied to giving your kids unforgettable “big” experiences while worrying that the small everyday moments matter more… and those are the hardest to find time for.

And of course — money guilt, self-care guilt, resting guilt, and the guilt of simply being human.

This episode is heartfelt, honest, raw, funny, and healing — a space for single moms everywhere to breathe and hear the truth:

You’re doing better than you think. You’re doing better than you feel. And you’re not alone.
