This week, it’s a SOLO episode with yours truly!
In this week’s episode of Spinsterhood Reimagined, I talk about not having children, how I’ve come to be childless at the age of 46, and how I truly feel about it.
I go way back to my childhood, my teens and my twenties, and share how I could never really relate to friends talking about feelings of broodiness back then, despite the fact that I always assumed I would have children eventually.
I tell you about how my feelings towards babies changed when my eldest nephew was born, and the excitement I felt when my friends started having kids; but how I still wasn’t entirely convinced that I’d been put on the planet to be a mother even though I took it for granted that it would happen sometime in my distant future.
I also share how broodiness finally hit me like a ton of bricks when I turned forty, and how working in a Twickenham coffee shop has its challenges due to all the mums and babies who frequent my place of work! I talk about how much I love being an auntie, and how I think my relationships with my nephews and niece are enhanced because I’m childfree.
Finally I talk about why, despite any residual sadness I may have about not having had kids, being childfree is a fabulous, exciting and liberating life path; and that ending up without kids does not define me in anyway, nor does it effect my happiness or the joy I find in life.
I hope that you enjoy this episode and that some of it resonates with you.
