Hey lady! This week’s episode is for all of the mothers out there holding it down to make sure their babies have the best in life despite all of the stigma, obstacles, and challenges that can come with being a single mother in America.

Jamilah Lemieux, notable author and editor and Black Twitter media personality, joins Terri and Dr. Dom to discuss her new book Black.Single.Mother and her journey into wholeness as a woman, co-parent, and mother of a teenager.

Jamilah has a real and relatable conversation about how she processed the dissolution of her relationship, came to terms with rejection, and moved into a healthy co-parenting dynamic that still honors her needs and boundaries but keeps the focus on her daughter and what is best for her development.

Jamilah drops gems about the internal work she had to do to get to a place where she wasn’t recreating patterns based on her life experience. Some of the biggest work we will do as women is being able to become so full of ourselves – our light, our brilliance, our joy – that we are able to fill in the areas where we feel incomplete, broken, or unworthy. It is some of the most important work we can do if we want to raise healthy children that will walk into the world knowing their inherent worthiness and free from inherited feelings of lack. We want confident young people that grow into capable leaders and it starts with all of us – mother or not – freeing ourselves from shame and stigma.

So, tap in and get some real love from Jamilah and the ladies of Cultivating H.E.R. Space and find out why being a present, loving “baby mama” is something to be proud of, not ashamed.

 

Quote of the Day:

“Our people (and, really, the whole world) need a complete overhaul of their ideas about Black single motherhood.”

– Jamilah Lemieux
