“Feel the fear and do it anyway” could be the motto of 67-year-old aussie legend Karen. She’s skydived despite her fear of heights, dived with sharks even though she didn't quite trusting the cowboys running the operation, and tried stand-up comedy - because of her terror of public speaking 💪

For Karen, being childfree has meant freedom. Freedom to leave her husband who thought she’d change her mind and only wanted to dim her (intense) light. Freedom to move on a whim, from Adelaide to Singapore, and then Hong Kong. And freedom to date men as young as her friend’s grown-up children ❤️

Karen has so many stories, we kept the juiciest ones for our Dolly Patrons. Subscribe now to hear about Karen’s trip to a brothel, how many children she had in a past life, and what she did on her honeymoon with the toast and the jam… 🍞

Whatever you wish for your childfree life, we hope this conversation inspires you to not let fear stand in your way!
