The Long Game: Kathleen Did It Her Way

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode, we sit down with Kathleen, who became a Single Mother by Choice in 2000 after spending years in sports and ultimately choosing a new path toward building her family. She shares what it was like making that decision at a time when the process looked very different—long before digital profiles and modern fertility platforms, when donor information often arrived in the mail in catalog form.

Kathleen reflects on the determination and long-held drive that led her to motherhood, and how that journey unfolded with the support of her family and community. At the center of it all is her son —who she describes as the greatest joy of her life.
