Awakening Worth in Childless Women

139: How to Stop Holding Back Your Opinions About Parenting


Listen Later

Do you ever find yourself in a conversation about parenting and,  even though you have advice to share, you’re afraid to speak up because you’re afraid someone will say, ‘You can't possibly understand—you don’t have kids.’

You might feel invisible in family gatherings, stop yourself from contributing to kid-focused discussions, or apologize and add disclaimers before sharing your perspective, like, "I know I don’t have kids, but…’

It's very important that you start speaking up in these situations, and we're going to talk about why in this episode. 

Today's conversation covers a topic that people just don't talk about. It's like an unsaid rule that women without kids don't get to have an opinion about parenting. 

We cover why this is the case, and the underlying reason you stop yourself from voicing your opinion and how to start, without feeling like you don't deserve to have an opinion. 

It all comes down to what I call, The Confidence Code, which is more than just ‘feeling confident’—it’s about showing up with the belief that you belong in every conversation, regardless of whether you have kids or not.

So, if you've ever held back in conversations about kids or parenting, start voicing your opinion with confidence.

And if you are looking to take this 100 steps deeper so you can live with confidence, clarity and joy, the Women of Worth is open for enrolment for the last time at 2023 pricing! 

Send me an email at [email protected] with the word CONFIDENCE and I'll send you the info!
