Making Career Moves That Actually Work as a Single Parent

In this week’s episode of Single Parent Reset, we look at what to do and what not to do when you’re thinking about progressing in your career as a single parent. If you know you want change at work but feel unsure how to move forward without burning out, this episode offers a grounded, realistic approach. We explore why pushing harder, ignoring your limits, or making rushed decisions often backfires, and why career progression needs to look different when you’re carrying the full weight of parenting alone.

I share practical guidance on how to make career moves that genuinely support your life, including getting clear on your day-to-day realities, understanding the true financial impact of change, building the right support around you, and advocating for yourself without overexplaining or self-doubt. This episode is about helping you progress in a way that’s sustainable, strategic, and aligned with your reality so your career can grow alongside your life, not stagnate at the expense of it.
