Hi!
Here’s a summary of what we’ve been up to in case you’ve missed it!
New podcast episodes
Episode 38 — How deep is the desire to have a child vs how deep is the desire not to have a child? Spoiler alert: we do not have the answer to this question. Someone in our audience sent us an email telling us about her journey from childfree, to wanting to be a mother, to childless, to childfree again. Our discussion to answer the question about the desire that comes with wanting or not wanting to be a parent was built around her story.
Episode 39 — Dr. Angela L. Harris joined us on this episode to chat about No Bibs, Burps, Bottles, a brand she created specifically for childfree, Black women. She shared with us the reason behind her brand's creation, a couple of her life experiences as a Black, childfree woman, and showed us her fluffy slippers!
You can also listen to these episodes in podcast form. Search CHILDFREE GIRLS on Spotify, iTunes/ Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, PlayerFM, Podbean, and other major podcast apps!
Our buzziest meme of the month
Childfree Club
You may have heard us talking about Clubhouse. It’s a new social network app based on voice, where people around the world come together to talk and listen in real-time. Nothing is posted or recorded. It’s basically a party line with your friends.
We are excited to announce that we have founded a club within the app for childfree people! It’s called Childfree Club! Check out our cozy virtual lounge where members can gather and have awesome childfree conversations!
We hold daily chat sessions around various childfree topics!

On a personal note
Isabel Firecracker is in vacation mode. She is also announcing Childfree Rallies this weekend! Stay tuned to her Instagram! @theuprisingspark
Kristen Tsetsi is finally almost finished with the first (and therefore embarrassingly bad) draft of a novel she’s adapting from a play she wrote a few years ago. She is also inadvertently tormenting a landscaper by asking him to remove a garden that, she learned upon making the request, he had planted for her home’s previous owner. She feels terrible, but not terrible enough to maintain a garden. @kristentsetsi
LeNora Faye recently purchased a piano and is getting reacquainted with music. She’s practicing a lot of Elton John songs. @thebitchybookkeeper
Childfree Girls’ Comfort Food for Thought

Isabel, Kristen, and LeNora
