S6, E7: Herstory - Queen Elizabeth I: Reigning Without an Heir


Listen Later

This week on Claiming Zero, we explore the extraordinary life of Queen Elizabeth I—one of history’s most powerful monarchs and one of its most iconic childfree leaders. Born into danger, crowned in turmoil, and reigning for 45 years, Elizabeth’s story is one of intellect, strategy, and self-determination.

We’ll unpack:
👑 Her upbringing in a fractured royal family, the shock of losing her mother at a young age, and her remarkable educational journey.
👑 Why she chose no husband, no children, and what that meant for a queen in the 1500s. 
👑 Her leadership, legacy, and how her childfree life shaped an era remembered as the Elizabethan Age. 

Whether you’re childfree by choice, circumstance, or a curious fence sitter, this episode celebrates a woman who redefined power and motherhood on her own terms.
