ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗

Season Two Coming Soon!

✴️  Do you ever wonder what childfree life REALLY looks and feels like? Sure there are the party days and good times of your 20s and 30s (which we both crushed btw) but what about when things start to "slow down" at 50? Is fun still a priority? Does the worry about the elder years increase or decrease?  Does regret set in or fade into oblivion? Do friendships change? Is building community with new childfree friends possible? 


We are a happy childfree couple living in Austin, TX who are here to answer all these questions and share our in-depth experience and expertise on Childfree Life. Our personal journeys towards the childfree life were very different. Veronica experienced 10+ years of doubt and confusion while Rick wasn't aware that his voice mattered.  PLUS- we will be covering the topics that matter to all childfree people- health and wellness, relationships, investments, career, travel and a whole lot more!


KNOW THIS ➡️  We are committed to being honest and transparent with y'all as we share our past mistakes and what we are doing now (specifically) to live a fulfilled childfree life. We are also excited to introduce guests who can open the doors to even more joy and self exploration for us all.


Whether you are loving your childfree life or ruminating about the childfree choice- this podcast is for you! Think of us as your older(ish) & wiser(ish) childfree friends who are struttin' down the childfree path with you. 

New episodes are released every other Thursday!
