Don’t fear regret, with Orna Donath

This is a very special episode of the podcast! I interviewed Orna Donath, the author of Regretting Motherhood, for an exclusive We are Childfree member event, and our conversation was so full of inspiration and insight that I had to share a preview with you all.

Listen in to hear how...

🔥 Regret often comes from societal pressures, not from our own choices

🔥 Choosing not to have children can be a radical act

🔥 We’re not the first! We’re continuing the legacy of women who’ve chosen to live childfree for generations
