A gathering place for people who have chosen the road less traveled by. Listen in as I speak with friends, family and strangers about what it’s like to choose not to have children in a child-obsessed world.

It is a tale of two Laura's today when I'm joined by renowned childfree advocate, researcher, and author Laura Carroll. As one of the founding members of the childfree movement, Laura has been researching, writing and talking about being childless by choice for over twenty years. Her most recent book, A Special Sisterhood, celebrates 100 women around the world who make up a sisterhood that is bonded by not following the beaten path. We discuss the evolution of the childfree movement, how social media has had both a positive and detrimental effect on the community, and the many, MANY ways that pro-natalism finds its way into our lives.
