So... Now what?

Show notes

In this short introductory episode, Rachel shares the story behind the evolution from Mothering On My Own to Now What?.

This podcast has always held space for the realities of single motherhood - the heartbreak, the rebuilding, the identity shifts, the co-parenting dynamics, the dating again, the courage it takes to start over. But as every single mother knows, the journey doesn’t really end once the dust settles. It changes shape. It stretches you. It asks new questions at every turn.

Now What? reflects that evolution. It’s still the same honest, grounded conversations you’ve come to expect - just expanded to honour everything that happens when a family changes shape, and everything that unfolds in the chapters that come after.

In this mini episode, Rachel walks through why the name felt right, what this shift means for the stories ahead, and how the podcast will continue to grow with you, no matter where you are on your journey.

If you’ve ever found yourself standing in a moment you didn’t plan for, wondering what comes next - you’re in the right place.
