Reinventing Your Life and Choosing Yourself: Eboni K. Williams on Relationships, Personal Growth, and Becoming a Single Mom by Choice

In this week’s episode, Eboni K. Williams shares the truth behind her transformation and the choices that shaped her life. We talk about how childhood patterns influence every decision we make, why relationships can often hold you back or change the course of your future, and how ignoring red flags will always cost you more in the long run.

Eboni opens up about choosing herself, stepping out of comfort zones, and the deeply emotional realities of egg freezing and IVF. We explore the importance of self-compassion, personal accountability, and the power of community among women. She also shares how her path led her to become a single mom by choice (SMBC), and how motherhood has reshaped her understanding of growth, identity, and purpose.

Tara and Eboni also share a message for younger women around dating, relationships, and fertility, including the decisions that protect your future self.

If you’re a woman in a season of reinvention, healing, or starting over, this conversation will give you clarity, courage, and the reminder that choosing yourself is always the right choice.
