Welcome to This Glorious Mess Little Kids. A twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is - confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny, and full of surprises. So many surprises!

Solo parenthood. It can be overwhelming, lonely, exhausting and for most people, it's never where they saw themselves ending up. So how can we embrace it, and better yet thrive as a single parent? 

Jacinta Tynan, journalist, author, presenter and single mum to two joins us to talk about why she transformed her own life and what she learnt from other empowered single parents. 

Plus this week's listener dilemma, how can I stay busy on maternity leave without spending too much cash...

Jacinta Tynan's latest book, The Single Mother's Social Clubis out July 1st! 

RECOMMENDATIONS
