In this supplemental episode of the Partnering for Life mini-series, Jackie speaks directly to single parents and sole decision-makers at home. Drawing from her experience being raised by a single mother, she reflects on what strong leadership looks like from a child’s perspective and reframes family leadership through the lens of the “sole founder.” This episode explores how clarity, support systems, sustainable rhythms, and internal alignment help single parents lead with confidence, build stability, and shape lasting family culture.
