In today’s episode, I sit down to chat with Makasa, a former engineer, who is now a work at home mom.Makasa found out she was pregnant one or two months after breaking up with her high school sweetheart and has been a single mom since pregnancy.Her child’s father was very involved for the first two to three years of her daughter’s life. Before her third birthday, Makasa found out he was married. She was working as a single mom as a manufacturer engineer 50-70 hrs a week, including weekends. She never had much time to spend with her daughter and felt like she was racing the clock. Now, she’s able to do things she normally wouldn’t have time to do, such as field trips and participating on the PTO board.She considers herself the “Rewired Mama” because she had to rewire her mindset.“In order to make a change, you have to change your mindset.” - KimMakasa’s initial goal was to get an extra $500 to put towards student loans and savings. She exceeded that goal and was able to make $1000 tuition payments for her daughter’s daycare. Since then, Makasa has been able to replace her income and work towards funding her dreams.“Your work ethic writes your check in entrepreneurship.” - MakasaConnect with Makasa via Instagram @makasacovinConnect with me via Instagram @singleblackmotherhoodVisit the website at singleblackmotherhood.com
