Single Motherhood

Year after year, I wasted time because I did not understand time management. As I began a journey of self-discovery and understanding, I began to realize that my daily structure was not organized. The occurrences of the day began to dictate my day, which forced me to be reactive. I could not continue to live like this. I knew I had to make a change quick. Time Management For Busy, Single Moms is an essential listen for moms struggling to maintain a work-life balance. Time is a valuable commodity that no one can afford to waste.

When Dr. Victoria Jones is left alone in her normally chaotic house, temporarily abandoned by her sleepover-bound children, she finds herself almost deafened by the resounding silence.

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Parent Talk by Wendy Mogel. Are you tired of arguing with your children? Do you find you're repeating the same messages over and over? Or perhaps you've given up trying to communicate with your kids at all?

In Parent Talk, Mogel elaborates on her approach.

As a single mother, I fully understand the highs and lows of motherhood. I understand the tireless effort, long days, longer nights, trying to make ends meet, and search for support. I understand that there's no joy like being a mom and there's no sacrifice that you're unwilling to make for your children. I wrote this text for this reason, to let mothers know that what they're feeling isn't unique, it's normal and there's encouragement. A Mother's Love speaks to the myriad of emotions we face, day by day.

She literally got paid to ask Robert Downey Jr out for Nando's while living with her gay best friend, their Harry Styles cardboard cutout and their pet toad, Snoop Frog, and drank prosecco way before it was in fashion. Things were good, they were fun, they definitely weren't serious. However, that life took a very grown-up, very serious detour when Amy found herself expecting the unexpected and pregnant age 24.

What was mothering like in the past? When acclaimed historian Sarah Knott became pregnant, she asked herself this question. But accounts of motherhood are hard to find. For centuries, historians have concerned themselves with wars, politics and revolutions, not the everyday details of carrying and caring for a baby. These details matter: they shape our feelings and give structure to our hours. But they leave little historical trace. Much to do with becoming a mother, past or present, is lost or forgotten.
