The Big Question. Children or Childfree? How Societal Pressures Influence the Decision

One of, if not the biggest questions of our lives is to have children, or not to have children. Few topics are as complicated as this one. This episode is an attempt to scratch at the surface of this deep deep question that we all face. I'm going to shoot this through the lens of a progression---I did an episode on patreon recently about my progression through my relationship with food and patterns. Ya'll gave me great feedback that it was helpful, so this episdoe I'm discussing my progression to childfree. This episode tackles the immense question of whether to become a parent, reflecting on societal pressures, personal experiences, and the emotional journey involved. I share my progression through this life-altering choice, highlighting the importance of self-awareness, emotional resilience, and practical considerations. Learn how to find peace and fulfillment, whether you choose to have children or embrace a child-free life. Perfect for HSPs, those healing from trauma, and anyone seeking clarity on this profound decision.
