For Black Single Mothers

The Identity Between Everything You Do and Who You Are

You do everything. This is where you name who you are beyond what you do.

This is for:

For the Black single mother who does everything — for her children, her household, her career — and is working through who she is when nobody needs anything from her.

You'll produce:your Your Identity Beyond the Role

The Name It First Experience

You wake up and the day is already full of what needs you. Your children. The job. The bills. The decisions that have no one else to make them. You are good at this. You are also someone beyond this — the person who existed before the motherhood, the singularity, the everything. This workbook is not about making you a better mother. It is about you. The output is not a parenting plan. It is The Black Single Mother's Self-Declaration.

You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.

Sample questions

  1. Name who you are when nobody needs anything from you — and notice how long it takes to find that person.
  2. Describe the version of you that existed before the motherhood, the singularity, and the everything — what did that person want?
  3. Describe who you are on your own terms — not the mother, not the provider, not the one who handles it. You.
  4. What do you carry about what a Black single mother is supposed to be — from your family, from the culture — and how much of that is yours?
