Celebrating Single Mom Entrepreneur Day

Today, June 30th, we celebrate Single Mom Entrepreneur Day — a day that honors the strength, vision, and resilience of single mothers who are building businesses and shaping futures.

As a single mom of two incredible young men, now ages 24 and 19, this day holds deep personal meaning for me. My journey into entrepreneurship began not from a place of perfect planning, but from the real, raw need to create a stable and fulfilling life for my family.

The Journey of a Single Mom Entrepreneur

There were moments of doubt and exhaustion. There were also times when the road ahead seemed impossible. Yet, with every challenge, I discovered a new layer of strength.

• I booked my first therapy client.

• I heard my sons proudly say, "My mom owns her own business."

• I built not just a career, but a legacy filled with determination, love, and hope.

  
  

Entrepreneurship has taught me that resilience is a muscle you build every day. Being a single mom has given me the heart and fire to keep moving forward, even when the journey gets tough.

Why Single Mom Entrepreneur Day Matters

Single Mom Entrepreneur Day is more than just a celebration. It serves as a reminder that countless women balance family life, financial responsibilities, and ambitious dreams all at once.

Today, we honor:

• The moms building empires after bedtime.

• The moms juggling kids' activities, medical appointments, and life’s unexpected events.

• The moms who shed tears in their cars or showers but muster the grit to try again.

• The women who show us that setbacks can lead to powerful comebacks.

• The entrepreneurs who teach their children what courage truly looks like.
