Fear of failure has been acting like your boss—and today, we’re firing it. In this episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, we’re flipping the pressure of “What do you want to achieve?” into a more powerful question: What do you want to experience this year? Even if life feels messy, heavy, or uncertain, you can still choose a direction.

We’ll talk about the question that exposes what your heart really wants—“If you knew you could never fail, what would you do?”—and why fear of failure keeps so many single moms stuck in overthinking, delaying, and talking themselves out of growth. You’ll walk away with practical, real-life shifts to get moving again: shrinking the step, redefining failure, creating a 14-day experiment, building a Plan B, and choosing courage over confidence.

Plus, I’ll guide you through the Experience Map—a simple 3-step exercise to help you choose one word for your year, picture what it looks like, and take one brave step that fits your real life.
