  • Summary

  • Are you a mama that often solo parents while your partner works away? Are you struggling to keep it together, and balancing all the things on your own? Do you have a hard time setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care? Do you wonder if more joy, peace, and fulfillment is possible for you in this season of life?

    The Solo & So Well podcast is a landing spot for all the mamas out there struggling in their solo parenting roles. If that’s you, I want you to know you are safe, seen, and supported here. This is a judgement-free, real talk, value packed, and encouraging community. You are not alone in this season of hardship, and you will come out the other side, brighter and stronger than ever!

    I’m your host Heidi Chirkoff, I know what you need, because I needed it too. It wasn’t that long ago that I was having an extremely hard time in the day-to-day - with two small boys, one on the way, a strained marriage, and loss of identity/purpose. I felt alone, I felt overwhelmed, I felt resentful, I felt like I was failing as a mother, and I felt guilty for feeling the way I felt. At the time, I didn’t know how to get “unstuck”, but I knew I needed to start making some changes, for myself, my kids, and my marriage – and that it was up to me, and only me, to start making them.

    In my desperate search for solutions, I found some things that worked, and some that didn’t. And now that I’ve come out on the other side, I want to share everything I’ve learned. Here at Solo & So Well, we focus on you, the Mom. Even though it may not feel like it right now, you are the anchoring presence in your home, you are the glue, the tone setter, the gatekeeper, the one who knows all, and has actual superpowers. Don’t let that pressure you, let it empower you. A better life starts with you! When you start to rise – the whole family will rise with you.

    My mission with this podcast is to be a guiding light, that shows other mamas the way to more joy, peace, and fulfillment - TODAY. It’s time to stop living in auto pilot, in struggle and survival mode – and start taking ownership of your life, one that is full of vibrancy and purpose. You were made for more! I know it, and you know it! We are going to shift you from always having life happen to you – to life starting to happen for you.

    Big change starts with itty bitty, consistent, daily action.

    Every time you press play on this podcast, the weight of it all gets lighter.

    So let’s get started!

    Hey Mama!

    In today’s episode, we’re focusing on something that can truly shift your mood, energy, and overall state—daily self-check-ins. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, exhausted, or like you’re running on empty, this episode is for you.

    I’ll be walking you through a simple, three-question check-in practice that takes just a few minutes but can have a huge impact on how you feel throughout the day. We’ll dive into why it’s important to pause, reflect, and acknowledge how you’re really feeling, and I’ll share practical tips on how to easily build this practice into your daily routine.

    Whether you're brushing your teeth, waiting for your coffee, or squeezing in a quick moment between errands, this check-in routine will help you reconnect with yourself and find those small, actionable steps that can boost your mood, increase your energy, and lower stress.

    Tune in to learn how this easy practice can help you stay grounded and take better care of yourself, even during the busiest days. Let’s start making self-care a priority, one small check-in at a time.

    Go ahead and press play! And don’t forget to share how your check-ins are going with me on Instagram, a comment on Spotify, OR in a review on Apple Podcasts <3

    Always wishing you well,

    xo

    Hey Mamas! Feeling a bit tense as we step into the fall season? But also feeling so ready for change? In this episode of the Solo & So Well Podcast, I share three practical tips to help you create a restorative seasonal self-care plan that aligns with the natural rhythm of fall. Fall is the perfect time to reset, recharge, and refocus on what truly matters as we head into the holidays and wrap up 2024.

    We'll explore how to:

    1. Let Go & Invite In: A guided journaling exercise to release what's no longer serving you and invite more of what you desire.
    2. Create a Movement Plan: Simple, achievable ways to incorporate movement into your day, boost your mood, and manage stress—even with a full schedule.
    3. Invest in Yourself: How to make small but impactful investments in your growth and well-being this season, aligned with where you are at and who you are becoming.

    These steps are all about finding more joy, peace, and fulfillment in and beyond motherhood. And, if you’re looking for even more support, don’t forget that today is the last day to get 20% off my 12-week 1:1 coaching program, 'Moms Time to Thrive.'

    Hey Mama!

    In this episode of the Solo & So Well podcast, I'm diving deep into the topic of self-confidence and why it’s something you build, not something you simply "get." If you're a mom feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or stuck in survival mode—especially if you’re holding down the fort while your partner is away for work—this episode is for you. Today, we explore why confidence is built through action, self-trust, and self-worth, and how these elements are essential for success in any area of life.

    Drawing from my own experience training for a Spartan race, I share the mindset shifts and practical steps that helped me push past self-doubt and build confidence from the ground up. Learn how to embrace imperfection, overcome fear of failure, and take consistent action to develop unshakeable confidence in motherhood and beyond. Whether you’re working on a new routine, parenting strategy, fitness goal, or stepping out of your comfort zone in any area of personal growth, this episode offers the inspiration and tools you need to move forward. And learn why showing up, even when it's messy, is the key to unlocking your fullest potential and thriving in and beyond motherhood.

    Tune in for actionable insights that will help you start building the confidence you deserve today!
