In this episode of Just Between Us, Jennifer Zamparelli is joined by counsellor and psychotherapist Margaret O’Connor (specialist in parenthood ambivalence and decision-making) and Niamh Madden, founder of Sisterhood, a community for child-free women in Ireland. Together, they unpack the pressure to follow the “default” life script, what it means to feel uncertain, and why a joyful, meaningful life can look many different ways — with kids or without.
