Queen Esther (yes THAT Esther from the Bible) If you are not a Christian please don't run away from this episode! Esther's story is one of strength and perseverance. She is someone anyone can relate to if you are childfree. There is no pushing of faith on you here, we promise!

It’s on the list of Bingo’s we can’t stand to hear: you don’t know tired until you’ve had kids. It’s frustrating and hits a nerve for many Childfree people, because we know what tired feels like, too. This episode, we talk about this Reddit topic as well as an update on Daliyce’s dating life!

Jamie wrote to us about her reasons for choosing to live Childfree and one of them was her job. We were so intrigued by what she did and how that became part of her story so we had to have her on! If you want to share your story, send us an email and follow us [email protected]

On today's episode we're talking about what it's like to be the only Childfree person at a children's event. Whether it's for family birthdays or friends showers, we want to show up and be supportive. But at what cost? Should we feel obligated to go when we know all the adults will end up talking about kids, or should we just avoid it at all costs? Our email is open to suggestions [email protected] and follow us on Instagram for all the fun @claimingzero

There are very few places that are strictly Childfree. If you’ve ever seen kids in bars, you know that rules are often lax. So we’re giving you a few fun destination ideas for the next trip you’re planning. It’s definitely tricky but it can be done. Even if it means staying home and creating your own movie theater experience!

We're so excited to have the chance to speak with another Childfree guest who is a dude! Sam lives in Texas and he's known since his teen years he never wanted to have kids. He has passions in music and video games that likely wouldn't be possible if he had kids. Sam is a vocal supporter of the Childfree community and you can follow him on Instagram @bullet_belts
