Ready? Let’s dive in!
Leader #1: Kristina Kuzmic
Oh. My. Goodness! I went through the majority of my decades of single parenting feeling like no one really understood how my brain was processing things. The guilt, the struggle…
Then, I discovered Kristina. (Thank you, Facebook, for suggesting her video for me!)
I absolutely love Kristina Kuzmic. She was a poor, single parent and she has created her space on the internet to offer support. I relate to her on so many levels. She is SO real with her delivery and you just know she has been exactly where you are.
You can find Kristina here http://www.kristinakuzmic.com or http://www.youtube.com/kristinakuzmic.
Leader #2: Jordan Page, FunCheapOrFree
If being a single parent for you means struggling with money or getting everything done, then Jordan Page will be an invaluable person for you to follow.
While Jordan is not a single parent, she is the mother of 8 kids so she definitely knows the struggles of parenting. I don’t care how much help your spouse is – juggling 8 kids has to be extremely challenging for all aspects of household management.
This woman is vibrant, brilliant, and not afraid of showing things that are real. Check her out at http://www.funcheaporfree.com or http://www.youtube.com/funcheaporfree.
Leader #3: The Secret Slob
Steph at the Secret Slob is not a single parent, but she offers some of the most encouraging content for moms that I’ve found on YouTube.
She has documented her journey from complete slob to home managing success using the FlyLady system. Her videos and how-tos are so helpful for anyone that’s struggling with staying on top of housework.

Leader #4: Rachel Cruze
For those who don’t know, Rachel Cruze is Dave Ramsey’s daughter. She specializes in managing your finances and zero-based budgeting. Unlike her father, she spends a good deal of time fashioning this information into something easier for parents to implement.
While Rachel is not a single parent, she does have some articles and videos pertaining to it. I also feel like her content is pretty universal.

Leader #5: She’s In Her Apron
Kimmy at She’s in Her Apron is a YouTuber who offers invaluable information on all aspects of home management. She is a stay-at-home mom who gives real-time advice on meal planning, cleaning, and all things mom.
She does an excellent job of teaching you her strategies. Many of them are also inspired by the FlyLady system. (Notice a pattern?)
