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.

Jessica’s path to motherhood took an unexpected turn when life—and timing—presented challenges she couldn’t ignore. In this episode, she shares how changing circumstances led her to make a bold, unconventional choice: saying “I do” to an old friend who stepped up in a way she never could have planned.
What followed was a journey filled with uncertainty, resilience, and the complexities of building a life together during a global pandemic—learning how to show up as friends, roommates, and emotional support for one another while holding onto a shared goal.
After delays and detours, Jessica’s dream finally came to life—not once, but twice. This is a story about redefining what family can look like, embracing the unexpected, and choosing courage in the face of it all.
