‘Putting Childlessness on the Workplace Agenda’
In this episode, I am speaking with Dr Krystal Wilkinson and Dr Robin Hadley around the topic of childlessness in the workplace and the absent narratives which need to be addressed. We discuss the fact that being childless not by choice is a stigmatised and taboo subject in the workplace and how the legitimacy of childlessness is a real issue compared to parenthood where policies and government legislation exist. It is essential that everybody’s non work needs deserve to be addressed and acknowledged without fear of judgement and discrimination. We talk around the challenges which arise from feeling isolated but also delve into what can be done to put childlessness on the agenda and support all employees who are affected.
Happy and Childless is a podcast designed to help you move in to the next chapter of your life learning tips and techniques to help you create a life which is Happy and Childless.
My mantra is “Human First Female Second” and I believe that my role in life is far greater than being a parent.
I am passionate that there is an exciting next chapter and I will be speaking with like-minded women and men who give insights into their journey to happiness whilst living a childfree life.
My aim is to be an example, demonstrating that through positive mindset, management of thoughts and taking action, a happy next chapter can be created and enjoyed.
If you are ready to put yourself, your health and your mental well being first and you want to embrace your life again then this is the podcast for you.
