Single Mom Smiling | Mindset Strategies for Single Moms

Then the Single Mom Smiling podcast is for you! Kerri Bishop is an author, speaker, and coach who now brings her energy and enthusiasm to podcasting. She is also a single mom of FIVE boys whose husband, on Mother’s Day, suddenly announced he was leaving. He moved out one week later. Kerri was 5 months pregnant with their 5th little boy at the time. Kerri now gratefully helps other women build lives of hope and positivity. Together, we will dive into unanswered questions, issues of self-worth, and next steps so you can become the woman and mom you are meant to be all while navigating this God-given adventure called life!

Episode Corrections:1. George Washington did not sign the Declaration of Independence.
2. I said there were 2,000,000 people living under British rule and 1% were Catholic. I should have clarified this to say there were 2,000,000 people living under British rule in America and 1% were Catholic.

Last week I launched Single Mom Smiling. I had so many fears about launching my new podcast.
These fears held me back.
In this episode, I get real about what holds single moms back from going after what they want.
After listening to the show (and leaving a written 5 star review!) shoot me an email and tell me what you want from life and what holds you back!
I read every message and would love to hear from you!
In the meantime...
God Bless You Beloved Mama & Keep Smiling...

Father's Day can be tough on single moms.
As much as you try to be both mother and father to you child, you can never be two people. A father and mother have unique and irreplaceable roles in the life of a child and in the family home.
In today's episode, you will find insight on how children view their fathers and help in seeing the value in being uniquely and irreplaceably you.
I hope you receive encouragement in today's show and know I thank God for you!

How often do you shrug something off as, "It is what it is" or something similar?
Do you believe you are locked into a certain result or do you believe in your ability to change your outcomes?
In today's podcast, I explain the difference between a fixed and growth mindset and some of how it applies to single moms.
I hope you enjoy the show.

The Christian world seems to be in a crisis of faith.
I think this is less a crisis of believing in God, Himself, than it is believing in God's Supernatural presence in our lives.
We view Him as a far away, vague, detached concept, rather than as a present, solid, active, Loving influence in our lives.
This means we also fail to realize the battles we fight against people are often better fought against Supernatural evils.
In this episode, I ask you to open your heart and mind to seeing the Supernatural active and present in your life.
If you struggle to see God's hand in your day to day or want to find His plan for your good, fill out the form below or send me an email. I read every message and will get back to you. I will also add you to my weekly updates and possibly answer your email in a future episode!

It seems the story of a single mom would begin at the point her relationship ended, but it always begins much sooner.
My story didn't begin that Mother's Day when my husband suddenly announced he was leaving me 5 months pregnant with our 5th little boy.
With God's Grace, it won't end there either!
