Jill of All Trades
The Superpower of a Single Mother
Let’s be honest—being a single mom means having zero backup and infinite job titles. One minute you’re the CEO of your household, the next you’re the plumber, chef, accountant, therapist, cheerleader, and emergency Uber driver—all before 9 a.m.
Welcome to the life of a Jill of all trades.
We Do What Needs to Be Done (Even If We’re Wingin’ It)
Single moms don’t always have the luxury of calling someone else to fix it, figure it out, or fund it. We just do it. We learn as we go, Googling things like “how to fix a washing machine with a fork and a prayer” while cooking dinner and helping with math homework. We’re not experts in everything—but we are experts in making things work.
Chasing Dreams in Between School Runs
Sure, we’re raising little humans—but we’re also out here launching businesses, crushing careers, and rediscovering passions we thought were lost under piles of laundry.
It’s not always graceful (hello, Zoom calls in pajama pants), but it’s driven by purpose, love, and a whole lot of caffeine.
My Story: The Pipe, the Pajamas, and the Presentation
There was the time my kitchen pipe exploded at midnight—just hours before I had to lead a major work presentation. With no plumber in sight, I rolled up my sleeves, found a wrench, YouTube’d my way through a minor flood, and got it under control. The next morning? I walked into that meeting with wet hair, sore arms, and the confidence of a woman who just saved her kitchen from becoming a swimming pool. And nailed it!
Why Being a Jill of All Trades is a Superpower
It’s not about doing everything perfectly—it’s about showing up, trying your best, and laughing when things go sideways. It’s turning “I can’t” into “Watch me,” one duct-taped solution at a time.
So if you’re a single mom juggling it all, know this: you’re not just surviving—you’re thriving with style, sass, and unstoppable strength.
