Being childfree or also called voluntary childlessness, is the voluntary choice not to have children. Childfree can also be defined as people or couples that choose the situation without a child. Childfree has become a trend since the early 2000, and it tends to refer to skeptical portrayals of parenthood in the media as new and modern phenomena.

In this Sparkle Mind podcast episode, I want to talk about how I can end up paying attention to this kind of belief or sensational decision. Yet, childfree still sounds like a controversial lifestyle both from the society, human history perspective, and religion. When a woman decides to be childfree, there will be so many social consequences, pressure, and backlash from society, inner circle, and family due to this life choice. Most people consider it a selfish decision, but some believe that childfree by choice is a stigma breaker and is supposed to be a women’s right.

This podcast is presented to ISPA (Isu Perempuan dan Anak) Competition in collaboration with @forumperempuanfmipa and @bemfmipaunsri. I’m so excited to share it with you, and I hope all of you can acquire a lot of insight and knowledge regarding childfree by choice. Happy listening 😊

Hello pal! How long has it been! Sparkle Mind comes back with a brand new sharing story episode. There's a story behind months of hiatus. Have you ever heard about ADHD? What is ADHD? Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a condition characterized by an ongoing pattern of inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity that affects performance or development. In Indonesia, the frequency of ADHD children is based on research by Dwidjo Saputro, a significant ADHD figure in Jakarta, who claims that 26.2 percent of students aged 6-12 years have presumed ADHD, and the number keeps rising. In this episode, Sparkle Mind perceives a small portion of the information on daily ADHD issues and how it affects everyday life based on personal experiences.

The library is one of my favorite spots on campus. My friend and I have used to have this desire to be the guard of the library. In the day, the library can be a very comfortable place for students to learn and the best for us to have a meeting with our friends. What about at night? Have you wonder what might be happening or how the library looks like. For a couple of times, I have this bold to walk by the library at night. Well, it is quite challenging and scary. Odd things happen, and the atmosphere is totally giving me chills. It turned out, I wasn't the only one to feel that way. Happy listening, pals. Have a nice day!

Hello pal! This very first episode dedicated to welcoming the listeners. My wish to start a podcast is happening. Sparkle Mind can't wait any longer to share a lot of stories with you pals. I wanted to make a podcast since a long time ago. Thank God it happens. The content of the podcast will be more like highlights of my stories. Personal journals, ideas, thoughts, opinions, and experiences. Being a weirdo, social introvert, and talkative at some moments pushes me to be a content creator. I love to express myself, and I think making podcasts is a good platform. Not the good ones, but at least I've got the feeling of an untethered heart. I'm not a good speaker or a storyteller, but I try to be the best version of myself.
