Louisa Pateman: Crafting Her Own Path to Motherhood

It's like people will do what they want to do...Don't assume that everyone around you is in a happy relationship
What happens when life doesn’t follow the script? For Louisa Pateman, it meant rewriting her own. In this episode of 'Affliction & Resilience', Judy Mandel chats with Louisa, an Australian author and civil engineer, about her unconventional journey to motherhood. After years of chasing the traditional dream of finding 'the one' and starting a family, Louisa faced a ticking biological clock and a series of failed relationships.
At 37, she made the bold decision to become a single mother by choice. She shares her heartfelt story of overcoming societal pressures and the joys and challenges of raising a child on her own. Louisa's narrative is not just about motherhood but about taking control of one's destiny and redefining success on her own terms. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with societal expectations and seeking inspiration to carve their own path.
