On today’s conversation, Lindsey Maestas speaks with Jennifer Maggio about the difficulties of single parenting. Jennifer shares her story of becoming pregnant four times as a young teenager while living on welfare and the struggles, confusion and frustrations that she faced during that time.

Lindsey and Jennifer speak candidly about how a relationship with Jesus impacts the regret, shame and circumstantial discontentment that single parenting can cause. It really does take a village, friends, so we are sharing ways that you can support your single momma friends – and even married momma friends – in ways that will help them to feel loved and supported.
