Does this sound familiar?

  • You keep wondering whether you’re truly choosing solo motherhood or simply running out of time to wait for the life you originally pictured.

  • You’ve started trying to conceive, but instead of feeling pure excitement, you’re carrying grief, fear, doubt, or resentment alongside the hope.

  • You’re already parenting and feel like everyone assumes the hard part is over, while you’re quietly struggling with loneliness, overwhelm, identity, or a decision no one else can make for you.

You’ve thought about it from every angle. You’re still stuck.

You may already have the pros-and-cons list, the research, the backup plans, and everyone else's opinion.

This is not about finding the "right" thought or forcing certainty. It is about building the capacity to make choices, navigate hard moments, and trust yourself through what comes next.

Having worked with hundreds of women across every stage of this path, I know the decision itself is rarely the whole story. There's often grief for the life you expected — and that grief isn't evidence you're on the wrong path.

You do not need to feel certain before you begin.

Do any of these thoughts keep circling?

  • What if I’m moving forward too soon? What if the right partner is still around the corner and I’m giving up on that version of my life too quickly?

  • Why am I staying so busy? Am I using work, planning, organizing, or constant productivity to avoid how I actually feel about this choice?

  • Will I always feel a little lonely? Even if I love the life I build, will doing this without a partner always feel like something is missing?

  • Can I really handle the day-to-day reality? The schedules, finances, childcare, decisions, and sheer responsibility of parenting on my own?

  • Why am I struggling when this is what I wanted? I’m pregnant or already parenting, and I feel guilty admitting that I’m anxious, overwhelmed, lonely, or grieving parts of my old life.

Feeling hopeful? Overwhelmed? Clear one day and completely unsure the next?

That makes sense.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone.

THE DETAILS

Individual Coaching

You don’t need a perfectly defined goal to begin. Coaching can support you through a major decision, a difficult season, or the questions and emotions that keep resurfacing as you navigate the path to solo motherhood.

Six-Session Coaching Package

For ongoing support as decisions, emotions, and real-life challenges unfold.

  • Six private 60-minute coaching sessions

  • Voxer or WhatsApp support between sessions

  • Four months to use all six sessions

  • Flexible scheduling based on your needs and season

Single Coaching Sessions

For focused support around one decision, challenge, or situation without committing to a full package.

kind words from past clients:

  • In one session, Katie helped me let go of one of the biggest hangups I had about becoming a solo parent. Deep down, I think I knew I was ready...but I was SO caught up in what other people would think. Learning how to let go of that story changed everything for me!

    – Christina

  • I worried that I wasn't a "good fit" for coaching since I was still doing a lot of dating and was very uncertain if SMBC was for me. But in these sessions, I never felt pressured to make a decision. Honestly, I still don't know what I will ultimately decide, but it was so helpful to talk everything through. It helped me realize that what I do next is MY choice, not something that is going to happen to me.

    – Sarah

  • If you are thinking about coaching, I would definitely say to do it. It was really helpful talking to someone who has been through a lot of the same things and talked to so many women in the same boat. I already knew I was going to move forward with IVF, but coaching helped me feel more at peace with my decision.

Meet Your Coach

I’m Katie Bryan, founder of The Single Greatest Choice, coach, and solo mom to a five-year-old who keeps life interesting.

I know what it’s like to grieve the life you expected while trying to make thoughtful decisions about the life in front of you. I also know that choosing this path does not erase the hard parts, and loving your life does not mean you never feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or lonely.

My role is to help you sort through what feels tangled, understand what matters most, and make choices you can trust. Coaching gives us room for the practical questions, the complicated emotions, and the parts you may not feel comfortable saying out loud anywhere else.
