Mama and Babe

You're showing up every day-and still wondering if it's enough.

Mama and Babe is the practical, honest guide for single mothers who want more than survival. Written by Shannon Pryor-who became a solo parent overnight after losing her fiancé to a sudden stroke while pregnant with one child and caring for another-this book meets you exactly where you are, without judgment, without unrealistic advice, and without pretending the journey is easy.

Whether you're newly single or years into this chapter-divorced, widowed, separated, or parenting solo by choice-you'll find guidance that actually fits your real life. Shannon covers grief and emotional resilience, parenting children through loss, overcoming the fear of not being enough, managing your time and finances, dating after loss, estate planning, basic investing for single moms, positive parenting strategies, fostering your children's curiosity, and building a support system that truly works.
