Choosing Chaos: Solo Motherhood by Choice
Choosing Chaos: Solo Motherhood by Choice — the podcast for women who are done waiting for “the one” and ready to become a parent on their own damn terms. We’re talking fertility, pregnancy, the emotional chaos, and the village it takes to raise a kid.
Sometimes you cry in the bathtub. Sometimes you're crying because your toddler bit you. And sometimes, you cry because you chose all of this.
Unfiltered conversations about solo motherhood—because doing it alone doesn't mean doing it quietly.

Jackie: A Story of Choice, Community, and Connection
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We’re sharing a story that beautifully expands what love and family can look like.
In this episode, Jackie — a single mom by choice — opens up about her path to motherhood, from beginning her journey with a known donor to ultimately choosing a different direction. She shares the courage it took to pivot, the joy of welcoming her daughter, and the intentional ways she’s built connection along the way — including creating a sibling community and surrounding herself with a strong village of other single moms by choice.
At its heart, this conversation is about generosity, support, and the powerful ripple effect of embryo donation. It’s a story of love multiplied — and a reminder that family can be built in the most thoughtful, expansive ways. 💛
