Single Mummy's Voice

Inspiring Togetherness Through the Joys and Challenges of Single Parenting

About

Hi there, I’m Single Mummy’s Voice.

I started writing when I was going through the separation with my husband as a way of sorting through everything I was feeling.  I had always liked to write as I find it helps to see things before me in black and white.  Recorded and immortalised.  

I started writing down my feelings as a way to try and make sense of what was happening and as a release from, and outlet for, all the pain, hurt and anger.

It has been a huge help to me, just being able to write everything down.

It then occurred to me that if I was feeling all of this pain and hurt then surely, and unfortunately, lots of other people were also feeling the same and going through the same experiences.

Hence I decided to turn my writing into a blog with the hope that maybe this blog could help other women, or men who are travelling the same path.

Whilst this was a place for me to record and talk about my own feelings, I wanted it also to be a place where a dialogue could be opened between readers and between myself and readers.  

I have come a long way since the initial separation with my husband which took place almost three years ago.  A lot has happened in those three years, some good, some bad and even though I am now in a relationship with a wonderful, kind man, it is by no means over.

I am a very different person now from who I was then and I would love to take you all on the journey I have gone through as a single mum from then till now.

I love the mountains and they have been my escape and a way to try and find a little bit of peace. My partner also loves the mountains so they have now become somewhere we can escape to together.
