Ann Davidman shares how single people can find clarity when deciding if they want children, and how to make the choice with confidence.

For many single people, one of the biggest life questions is: Do I want children? Without a partner to shape the decision with, it can feel overwhelming, confusing, or even urgent as the years go by. But finding clarity is possible.

Bree speaks with Ann Davidman, co-author of Motherhood — Is It For Me?, to talk about how single people can explore the question of whether or not they want children, and how to make that decision from a place of self-knowledge rather than fear or pressure.

You’ll learn:

•Why the decision to have children feels harder when you’re single

•How to separate societal expectations from personal desire

•Practical tools to uncover your true feelings about parenthood

•Why clarity brings freedom, whether the answer is yes, no, or maybe

•How to embrace your choice and live authentically

If you’re a single person wrestling with the question of children, this episode will help you find clarity, compassion, and confidence in making the decision that’s right for you.

Researcher Alicia Denny & Cohabs share why housing is harder for single people and how co-living spaces are changing the future of living.

Why does housing feel so much harder, and more expensive, when you’re single? From rent prices to mortgage requirements, the world seems to be built with couples in mind, leaving single people to pay more for the same roof over their heads.

Bree speaks with Alicia Denny, researcher on housing and social trends, and Cohabs, a global co-living community, about the challenges single people face in today’s housing market and the rise of co-living as a new, affordable alternative.

Together, they unpack:

•Why the housing system is stacked against single people

•How cultural expectations around couples and families shape housing policies

•The financial and emotional toll of navigating housing solo

•The rise of co-living spaces and what they offer single professionals

•How single people can rethink community, affordability, and independence in modern living

If you’ve ever felt like you’re paying the 'single tax' on rent or struggling to find housing that works for you, this episode will offer fresh solutions for the future.

Bree is in Mumbai, India.
