Other Than Motherhood
A "feelings-based" podcast that seeks to expand the discourse around the decision to be childfree and an exploration on the influences and messages that impact our thinking, and all of the possibilities of a life that is other than motherhood. This Podcast series focuses on bringing unique perspectives and interrogating the difficult questions, as well as elevating the importance of identity for women who do not choose to become mothers.

"Instead" with Maria Coffey
Hello everyone! I am very excited to introduce this week's guest - Maria Coffey is an author of 13 books, including her most recent publication - "Instead - Navigating the Adventures of a Child Free Life."
Today, Maria will be talking with me about her experiences and how she came to write the book and some of the major themes within it, including a number of incidences that have had a big impact on her life, as well as treating us to a couple of readings too.
Outside of writing, Maria also runs the travel company "Hidden Places" with her husband Dag https://www.hiddenplaces.net/
