Today the fabulous Ruby Warrington is hanging out with us to chat about why it’s okay for women to decide that being a mother just isn’t for them. Ruby is a British-born author, editor, and creator of the term Sober Curious. 

Author of the 2018 book Sober Curious, and podcast of the same title, her work has spearheaded a global movement to reevaluate our relationship with alcohol. Other works include Material Girl, Mystical World, and The Sober Curious Reset. Her new book, Women Without Kids, is out now. With 20+ years of experience as a lifestyle journalist and editor, Ruby is known as an astute cultural commentator and true thought leader. 

In today’s episode, we chat about…

  • Why nothing is wrong with you for questioning whether or not you want kids

  • Questions to ask yourself before having a baby

  • Why the birth rate is dropping off

  • What’s impacting fertility

  • Reasons why people are choosing not to have kids

  • Why women are starting to say no more than men to having kids 

  • How the lion’s share of work falls on women

  • How motherhood impacts a woman’s career

  • Why Ruby says she’s “areproductive”

  • Why it’s important to normalize questioning whether or not you want kids

…and so much more!
