Transitions and Divorce Coach

I am shattering the stereotype that a successful family is a two-parent one. 

As a solo mom by choice (SMBC) to a daughter, we have traveled the world together, and I support our adventures by writing and speaking about gentle parenting, women empowerment, living an unconventional life, and travel. 

If you've got a writing project or speaking engagement that you need a dynamic, hardworking, travel junkie who is not afraid of a challenge, connect with me and send me a DM. 

I'd love to discuss what I can do for you!

I am passionate about:

* Writing and telling stories
* Being a mom 
* Travel 
* Solo Mom by Choice (SMBC) life 

You can find me writing on medium (https://medium.com/@julesmorey). 

I generally like to brag about my amazing four-year-old or publish stories of other moms who choose to have a child with a donor in my Choosing Motherhood publication.  

A TEDX talk is on my goal list for 2024!
