What does it really mean to choose a child-free life by choice in a world that still equates womanhood with motherhood?
Hi Muses,
In this powerful - and deeply validating - episode I’m joined by Wilmarie Hernandez, a coach and creator who supports women navigating life without children - intentionally, unapologetically, and on their own terms.
We’re exploring what it looks like to redefine womanhood, honour your inner knowing, and design a life that reflects who you truly are - not who society expects you to be.
This conversation is for any woman questioning traditional timelines, feeling pressure around motherhood, or carving out a life that doesn’t follow the script.
In this episode, we explore:
* What it means to be child-free by choice - and why this path deserves celebration, not justification
* Knowing you don’t want children from a young age and learning to trust that inner voice
* Navigating dating and relationships as a child-free woman
* How choosing a child-free life can expand freedom, creativity, travel, and possibility
* The emotional impact of societal pressure, family expectations, and internalised guilt
* How friendships can shift when your life path looks different - and how to navigate it with compassion
* Healing the mother wound and sisterhood wound to build deeper, safer connections with other women
* Redefining success, fulfilment, and purpose beyond traditional milestones
* Creating a life that feels aligned, expansive, and deeply your own
Wilmarie also shares her own journey - from growing up in a traditional culture, to finding love, building a marriage rooted in shared values, and designing a location-independent life filled with meaning, connection, and choice.
This episode is a reminder that there is no one right way to be a woman - and that your path is valid simply because it’s yours.
✨ If you’ve ever felt different, questioned the narrative, or needed permission to choose yourself - this conversation is for you.
Until next time X
