Welcome to the Single Mom Life bi-weekly blog series. This week on SML I went looking for inspirational women because when you’re a single mom, it’s easy lose motivation in a man’s world. I was lucky enough to land an exclusive interview with Monster Jam’s El Toro Loco team truck driver Becky McDonough. Talk about finding some girl power! She’s not a single mom, but she’s just the right dose of girl power to give you that “hell yeah” in your step.

This.

Girl.

Is.

So.

Badass.

Becky is a true inspiration. She saw something she wanted, found out what she needed to do to get there, and set herself on the path with all the odds against her. A path to a career heavily dominated by men and 100% bad ass. Let me tell you, Becky is no basic bitch.

The Monster Jam Experience

There’s something that commands attention when the trucks come out on the track. It’s hard to take your eyes from. I’ve been hooked since my first jam in 2012 and have been to every one since. You are seriously missing out if you’ve never been to a Monster Jam show. Take everything you know about big stadium sports; the excitement, the food, the family, the tailgating… then throw the gnarliest engines, biggest jumps, epic donuts and biggest trucks you can imagine. You’ve got one exciting evening.
