Listen now
Description
It's episode #50 (which feels like a big milestone) AND it's our last in-studio episode before the holidays! We chat about what gatherings are like with relatives who don't respect boundaries and deciding when to speak up when someone is offending you. We also hear some creative solutions to the problem of too many gifts for their onlies' birthdays and holidays! We read emails about working with pregnancy or babies after deciding you are one and done and triggers for those who have experienced secondary infertility. We also hear from a listener who is one and done by choice and wants to feel validated in that. Want to tell your story? Email us at [email protected] if you have thoughts on these questions or find us on Instagram or Facebook to be a part of the conversation. You can now support us on Patreon! All patrons at the $5 level or above can join us for a monthly mental health support group via Zoom and folks at the $10 level can listen ad-free. Also remember to please leave us a review wherever you get your podcasts.
