59. Dear Former Fence-Sitter #1 with Amanda E. White, LPC


Listen Later

Your questions, answered! In this very first episode of my new Dear Former Fence-Sitter series, I sit down with former guest — mom, therapist, and former fence-sitter, Amanda E. White — to answer questions that include...

  • How do I decide if I don't feel strongly about having kids one way or the other?
  • If I'm scared of pregnancy and childbirth, what advice do you have for me?
  • I'm a step-mom and struggling to figure out if I want kids of my own — what to do?
  • How do I navigate my relationships with my mom friends as a childfree woman?
  • What was beneficial in preparing yourself for parenthood, and that made you realize you could do it?
