“Why are women choosing to have fewer children?” This seems to be the question on everyone’s lips at the moment – not a day goes by when I don’t see a related story in the media. Globally, reproductive rates are plummeting, and world leaders are wringing their hands and, in some cases, crying on our […]

Having been interviewed on BBC 4’s Woman’s Hour and BBC Radio 5 Live’s Breakfast Show, you could be forgiven for thinking I was confident speaking on live radio. Wrong! As I sat waiting for the phone to ring for my guest slot on Chris Warburton‘s Show on 5Live, I must have looked like I was […]

As I was thinking about childlessness in society, and the importance of speaking out and raising awareness for CNBC (Childless Not By Choice) people everywhere, I was reminded of a fantastic example of this which happened last year… A member of The Non-Mum Network Facebook group had become frustrated by the lack of awareness and […]

I’m a guest on Mike’s Open Journal Podcast

G’Day Non-Mums! How are you all on this dull February morning?Now, those of you who know me personally and not just via the blog will already know that I’m something of a motormouth. I have a tendency towards being pretty full on: turbo-charged and as nutty as a tray of Ferrero’s at the Ambassador’s Reception. Some […]

Some weeks ago an email randomly popped into my inbox from a girl called Carrie, saying she was a podcaster interested in interviewing writers and bloggers for her Society Lounge (Sip and Shine) podcast, she really liked my blog (having discovered it via Twitter) and would I be up for an interview? Of course I […]
