Solo Parent Podcast
This week we’re discussing what it really means to Stop Chasing Peace and Start with This.
Our guest today is Laurie Lokey, a licensed professional counselor and co-founder of Resilient Love. Laurie specializes in trauma recovery and relationship health, and her compassionate, no-nonsense approach helps people move from self-protection to deep emotional connection. Her work blends clinical expertise with personal experience in a warm, accessible way.
For so many solo parents, peace feels like something we have to earn…by fixing ourselves, performing, or knowing all the right answers. But often, the more we try to “get better,” the more disconnected we feel from who we really are. What if peace isn’t found in doing more, but in learning to just be?
Today, we cover three main points:
- Why fixing ourselves doesn’t work
- How shame hijacks healing
- Finding peace in the present moment
