In today’s GRWM, I’m getting ready and chatting with you about what dating is really like as a single mom—because it’s honestly a whole different world. I share the real-life side of it: how my time looks different now, how I think about who I let into my peace, and why I’m way more intentional than I was before. This isn’t me trying to be negative—it’s just the truth of balancing motherhood, routines, and still wanting connection. I also talk about the mindset shifts that come with dating after you’ve built a life with your kids at the center. For me, it’s not about rushing anything or forcing a “perfect” story—it's about protecting my home, my schedule, and my heart, while still being open to meeting someone who actually adds to our life. And since it’s Valentine’s season, I’m also sharing a rose option I love if you’re wanting something cute for yourself or someone else—because yes, single moms deserve pretty things too.
