Overcoming Single-Parent Challenges with Amy Holland

Rachel is joined by guest expert Amy Holland for an in-depth discussion about some of the challenges that single parents face.  Amy is CEO of Single Parents Wellbeing, which is a peer-led social enterprise that serves a growing community of over 2,500 members. Amy is also training to be a Human Givens Counsellor. Her work and training promote improving relationships with self and others.

This was a really deep dive and they covered a lot of ground. Subjects included single-parent challenges such as conflict, nervous system responses, stigma, dating, body image and low self-esteem. Together they explored healthy strategies such as raising awareness, self-care, boundaries and the importance of community and platonic friends, in addition to some specific techniques that Rachel introduced Amy to in their previous one-to-one coaching sessions. These two are great friends and had fun and laughter on this episode, even while considering such weighty topics!
