<p>Today I sit down with Sarah Patel, a woman who knew she didn&apos;t want to have childfren but doubted her choice when no one else around her felt the same way. Sarah is the mother of a thriving 6-year old who she loves deeply, and yet she can clearly recognize that the love for her child does not come with a love of parenting. She and I discuss her journey to choosing to have a child,  the impact of childbearing in an overpoulated world, and the courage to honor one&apos;s truth amidst the clamor of cultural expectations. </p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2225488/support">Support the show</a></p><p>Email me questions at <a href='mailto:[email protected]'>[email protected]</a> - I&apos;d love to hear from you!<br/><br/>Follow on the Gram: <a href='https://instagram.com/childfreeme_?igshid=MzMyNGUyNmU2YQ=='>@childfreeme_</a><br/><br/>Music from #Uppbeat:</p> <p><a href='https://click.pstmrk.it/3s/uppbeat.io%2Ft%2Fandrey-rossi%2Fseize-the-day/vZub/pAuwAQ/AQ/3f2c6871-4780-43ee-bf76-8ac5853cf678/4/Z-lTzv-c9m'>https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day</a></p> <p>License code: 10MWPZUG3AZBGZPR</p>
