The Raw Truth About Single Parenting - and Why I’m Starting the Space I Wish Existed
It’s taken me a while to post this.
Not because I didn’t want to, but because I knew the second I shared this, there was no turning back.
For the last 12 months - especially the last 6 - I’ve been walking through a fire. Co-parenting, working multiple jobs, holding the emotional load of fatherhood, trying to show up for my son, Brax, while building a life that actually feels aligned.
In that time, I’ve had dozens of conversations with other parents - mums and dads - who are doing the same: raising kids, holding down careers or businesses, navigating separation, dealing with legal and financial stress, and still trying to stay sane, calm, and present.
It’s brutal. It’s transformative. And it’s a rite of passage I wouldn’t trade.
But there’s one thing that’s missing: community.
Real support. A place where you don’t have to pretend. Where you can talk about the things no one else gets unless they’re living single parenting too.
So I’m creating it: The Parenting Ground.
A weekly support group for single mums and dads. Honest convos, shared tools, and community.
This is for those of us doing it all - school drop-offs, bedtime routines, court dates, full-time work, managing debt, wanting to connect in vision, purpose, passion, and still trying to heal and grow through it all.
If you're feeling the weight and want somewhere to feel grounded, resourced, and supported - send me a message.
