Show Notes
Lovely listeners, this might be our most emotional episode yet. We've recently been speaking a bit more on the podcast about our experiences with being child-free, so you might already know that, for numerous reasons, neither of us have kids, despite wanting them. And from the amount of messages we get, we've realised how common this experience is, despite how isolating it can feel. So in this episode, we're getting real about our experiences, and where we're currently at with this. We're also chatting to the incredible Jody Day, aka the BEYONCE of Childlessness, about her advice on grief and what a childless future can look like.
p.s. as you'll hear in our chat, we're aware that child-less and child-free are meant to have different definitions. We're currently more comfortable using the term 'child-free' for ourselves, so that's what we're using in the episode title. It's absolutely not to take away from anyone who's child-free by choice, it's just where we're currently at in our "journey" xx

Lauren's been digitally detoxing and Laura is trying to chase some sun (semi-successfully) so this week, we are sharing some of the best moments from Series 5. You will hear:
About a year ago, Laura suggested getting Styled By Susie onto the podcast and Lauren was a bit unsure. Because when we hear the word stylist, we immediately think of someone who is going to tell us everything we can't wear.
