Are you a mama that often solo parents while your partner works away? Are you struggling to keep it together, and balancing all the things on your own? Do you have a hard time setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care? Do you wonder if more joy, peace, and fulfillment is possible for you in this season of life?
The Solo & So Well podcast is a landing spot for all the mamas out there struggling in their solo parenting roles. If that’s you, I want you to know you are safe, seen, and supported here. This is a judgement-free, real talk, value packed, and encouraging community. You are not alone in this season of hardship, and you will come out the other side, brighter and stronger than ever!
I’m your host Heidi Chirkoff, I know what you need, because I needed it too. It wasn’t that long ago that I was having an extremely hard time in the day-to-day - with two small boys, one on the way, a strained marriage, and loss of identity/purpose. I felt alone, I felt overwhelmed, I felt resentful, I felt like I was failing as a mother, and I felt guilty for feeling the way I felt. At the time, I didn’t know how to get “unstuck”, but I knew I needed to start making some changes, for myself, my kids, and my marriage – and that it was up to me, and only me, to start making them.
In my desperate search for solutions, I found some things that worked, and some that didn’t. And now that I’ve come out on the other side, I want to share everything I’ve learned. Here at Solo & So Well, we focus on you, the Mom. Even though it may not feel like it right now, you are the anchoring presence in your home, you are the glue, the tone setter, the gatekeeper, the one who knows all, and has actual superpowers. Don’t let that pressure you, let it empower you. A better life starts with you! When you start to rise – the whole family will rise with you.
My mission with this podcast is to be a guiding light, that shows other mamas the way to more joy, peace, and fulfillment - TODAY. It’s time to stop living in auto pilot, in struggle and survival mode – and start taking ownership of your life, one that is full of vibrancy and purpose. You were made for more! I know it, and you know it! We are going to shift you from always having life happen to you – to life starting to happen for you.
Big change starts with itty bitty, consistent, daily action.
Every time you press play on this podcast, the weight of it all gets lighter.
So let’s get started!

053 // Set Yourself up for More Success This Year: Why I Ditched Doing New Year's Resolutions and Do THIS Instead.
Hey Mamas!
The holidays are behind us, and it’s time to take a deep breath and check in. How are you feeling, Mama? In this episode, I’m sharing a little about my Christmas—why it felt calmer and more joyful this year, even with sickness, messed up sleep schedules, derailed plans, my husband not getting home until Christmas Eve.
I’m also inviting you to shift your mindset as we head into the new year. Instead of setting lofty New Year’s resolutions that often fizzle out by February, let’s talk about choosing a word or intention for the year—something that feels grounding, inspiring, and achievable. I’ll share why I made this change a few years ago and how it’s powerfully shifted the way I approach my goals and life.
Plus, if you’re ready to set yourself up for more success, peace, and joy in 2025, I’d love to help you get started. Book a free 15-minute discovery call with me, and let’s explore how we can create a year that truly aligns with your values, needs, and vision.
This year isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing what matters most. Let’s make it happen together!

Always wishing you well,
