Podcasts about Suddenly Single

You've just celebrated your 25th wedding anniversary two weeks ago and your 60th birthday four weeks ago. Life seems to be going along fine until one ordinary day out of the blue your husband tells you ‘I'm seeing someone else'. I recently interviewed Jo Peck, author of Suddenly Single at Sixty for a Women Living Well After 50 Podcast episode. She is an intelligent woman, former business owner for over 20 years of a successful ad agency ‘Working Girls Advertising' and also born in the same year as me. Her book is about how she recovered from those four words and regained her life. She writes about the good times in her marriage with travel, adventure and good friends. But after the ‘declaration', on reflection, Jo realised that it was not good all the time and she was doing most of the compromising.This is not a pity party book. It's about Jo carrying on in a new direction, taking risks and being open to new opportunities. Treading into the unknow waters of online dating at 60 after being in a relationship for more than 25 years. She doesn't sugar coat the bad times she had – the self-doubts which plague us after this type of experience but I found the book funny at times, sad, angry at others but mostly a woman finding her way and regaining her ‘sense of self'.This would be a great holiday read over the summer and then a perfect introduction for the Podcast episode.

Although specific to those who have lost a spouse or partner who they have relied on to help with parenting, this episode examines another aspect of loss often overlooked. In the first days and weeks after loss, it's common to feel disorientated, and even more common to feel downright surprised at the many details of everyday life we took for granted when our spouse or partner was here. Parenting is one of which I knew – on the surface – would be a challenge and something I'd have to face head on, but one of which has continued to surprise me at every turn. Join me as I explain my experiences with becoming a suddenly single parent… I invite you to join the conversation on social or at journeytograteful.com to share your specific experiences as well.

I didn't set out to be a single mom. I set out to be the best mom I could be...and that hasn't changed. My best friend is someone I admire a lot. I've watched her over the years grow into this thing called motherhood all on her own. From the moment when she found out she was pregnant to watching her face many obstacles left and right and deal with crisis after crisis with little or no help. She's grown to be a strong woman who takes care of her children single-handedly. She didn't set out to be a single mom but regardless, she's a great one. Raising your family on your own can be heartbreaking, lonely and hard to navigate. Suddenly, you are the one who has to have the answers. Remembering that God is always with you and that His love is faithful can give you the confidence to face whatever this new life brings. With a foundation of helpful Scripture verses, each message shares a story, a survival tip and a prayer. Readers will find a faithful companion in this book as they encounter each new experience and learn to embrace their new role. Jeanette Hanscome shares 52 encouraging insights gleaned from her first year as a single mom to two boys.
