In some societies, and increasingly in the US, women don’t have the right to control their bodies, they don’t have reproductive choices, they have no agency over the role they play in society, and their safety and security and status depend on their fertility.

1. You can be safe
2. You can support yourself financially
3. You can do things other than have babies

In this episode, I dive into why having the ability to choose to live kidfree as a woman is a privilege that is both beautiful and badass.
