What To Do When Betrayal Makes You a Single Mom

“My marriage and family were shattered in ways I never imagined, and I was sure it was the end of our happiness. That lie, and others like it, were among many that threatened me every day. But not forever. Eventually, I learned to stop fighting reality, embrace acceptance, and take brave steps forward, and you can too.

In my book, ‘When Betrayal Makes You A Single Mom’ I share relatable challenges that threatened to consume me and the practical steps I took to bring hope and a renewed future into my home.

Betrayal and single parenting may feel like the end of your dreams, but it isn’t! An entirely new chapter is coming. You will be whole again, and it’s going to be beautiful.

—Kim Breuninger, on why she wrote her book When Betrayal Makes You a Single Mom
