Single Mother by Chance and then by Choice, Designer Virginia Drader

Today on the podcast, I get to introduce you to my dear friend and community member, Virginia Drader. Ginny is a perfect example of designing the life of your dreams, even when things don’t always go according to plan. After becoming a single mom by chance in her late 20s, Ginny spent the next decade embracing her career and motherhood. But after an unexpected pregnancy followed by a miscarriage in 2022, she realized that her dream of having another child was still very much alive. Virginia, an interior designer who incorporates Feng Shui and 9 Star Ki into her work, made the decision have another child, this time as a single mom by choice. And in today’s episode, she shares the highs, lows, and everything in between about her journey to solo motherhood by choice. We dive into the unexpected twists that led her here, the decisions she made along the way, and how she's creating a home and life that’s deeply supportive for her children.

The Single Greatest Choice is a podcast about singleness, fertility, motherhood, and choice. This is a show for women who are grappling with what to do when life doesn't follow the love-marriage-baby carriage trajectory. It's about exploring the options when things don't seem to be turning out as we'd always planned. Most of all, is a place for women give and receive support as they grapple with these big topics - because what we decide to do with these years could be the single greatest choice we'll ever make - and we don't have to make it alone.
