Breaking Down Stereotypes: An Unapologetic Conversation On Child Free Life 

In this episode, I dissect the notion of stereotypes surrounding individuals who choose not to have children. As a licensed therapist, I navigate common assumptions, including being selfish, will face regret later in life, being emotionally unfulfilled, and being freedom-centric, among others. 

I provide counter-arguments based on personal experiences and societal observations, refuting these stereotypes, and advocates for a purposeful, intentional life regardless of the decision to parent or not. 

The episode aims to encourage listeners to own their choices and embrace their individuality.
