Betsy Cornwell on Single Parenthood & The Old Knitting Factory
Description
In this episode, New York Times bestselling author Betsy Cornwell shares her experience of becoming a single parent after leaving an emotionally abusive relationship. We talk about starting over from scratch, building a support system, and how writing helped her make sense of what she’d been through. Betsy also talks about asking for help and why that can be one of the hardest but essential parts of single parenthood. She share how she went on to create The Old Knitting Factory, a retreat space where single parents can rest and reconnect with themselves.
This is an honest conversation about survival, creativity, and rebuilding life on your own terms.
Listen to this episode for a real look at the emotional and practical challenges of parenting alone, finding your feet again after abuse, and how small steps can lead to big change.
