People are increasingly unsure about kids, and the US and
European fertility rate is at an all time low. According to Pew
Research, 1 in 5 people will remain childless. This week, the
Beyond Well Team talk about the growing number of people who are
intentionally childless. If you are attempting to decide whether to
have children, this episode is for you.
As a farm girl raised in eastern Oregon, Jackie ShannonHollis
expected to become another someday. But, after several failed
relationships, Jackie met the love of her life, a man who did not
want children. In direct and intimate language, Hollis talks about
her consideration of what to keep and what to abandon to make space
for love. Her debut memoir, This Particular Happiness is receiving
critical acclaim for its honesty, its poetry, and one woman’s
ability to tell the truth about our most intimate desires.
