šŸ“¢ E35: Parenthood Isn’t for Me, and Here’s Why – A Deep Dive into Choosing a Child-Free Life

šŸ’” Why do some people choose not to have kids? A listener asked me about being child-free in my mid-30s, and it got me reflecting on my own reasons—autonomy, sacrifice, fulfilment, and whether parenthood is truly the only path to a meaningful life.

In this episode of English & Beyond, I dive into:
āœ… The rising trend of choosing a child-free life
āœ… Family pressure & societal expectations around parenthood
āœ… The "white picket fence" dream—why I once wanted kids but changed my mind
āœ… The pros & cons of a child-free life
āœ… A candid discussion with CĆ©sar—do we ever feel FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) about not having children?

Plus, unexpected twists, including an awkward baby-holding moment and… sausage dogs. 🐶
