Dawn Taylor and guest Katie Dooley of Paper Lime Creative talk about children in today’s episode. More specifically, they talk about being child-free adults, either by choice or through infertility, and the various judgements they face from society at large over being child-free.

 

Katie is child-free by choice and she describes her feelings towards children as “mostly ambivalence”. She didn’t realize it was truly an option not to have kids when she was younger, though, and she addresses this as something everyone should know. That not having kids is a choice you can make.

 

While Dawn is child-free due to infertility - and she shares how she and her husband actively grieved their inability to have children - she and Katie discuss the many ways society chooses to judge or talk down to child-free adults, how medical professionals defer to one day wanting children in regards to medical decisions, and they share some of Katie’s curated list of 200 reasons not to have a baby. Tune in to find out why people might prefer not to have children and what not to say to friends who are on a path of infertility.

I felt like my life had been squandered a little bit in the season of having babies and people needing me. But after working with Dawn, I realize I have the potential for greatness. It was the first time in my life that I realized I actually have the potential to do amazing things.

I had been in therapy since I was 16, over 20 years of going to therapy before I met Dawn. But in 14-15 months of working with her, my brain has essentially rewired itself. How I view my friends, myself, and God has changed. But you have to buy in, and be willing to work through the tough stuff to get to the other side.

I Get It - 

Life is Hard!

Like many of my clients, I’ve also felt ugly, useless, and forgotten.

I’ve gone through depression, molestation, and a brain aneurysm. 

It took me years to understand what I had gone through and how to use my past to support others in conquering their fears and self talk.

That’s why I’ve condensed what I’ve learned into strategies to help you overcome your own stuff efficiently. 

With multiple different certificates, training courses, and a whole lot of courage and stubbornness, I decided that if I could heal myself I could help others heal too.
