Our Stories

j0178801

We are no longer accepting stories for “Our Stories” posts.
However, we have left the questions up because we encourage you to answer them for yourself. Over the years, we have heard again and again how this exercise has helped LWB readers reach the next level of healing on their journeys. We hope that might happen for you too.

You can read all Our Stories here.

The Questions:

Briefly describe your dream of motherhood.

Where are you on your journey now? (for example: still in denial, angry, hoping for a miracle, depressed, crawling toward acceptance, embracing Plan B, all of the above)

What was the turning point for you? (either when you gave up on the dream of having children or when you felt you were able to move forward with a Plan B)

What’s the hardest part for you about not having children?

What’s the best part about not having children?

What’s the best advice you’ve received?

What have you learned about yourself?

What’s one thing you want other people (moms, younger women, men, grandmothers, teachers, strangers) to know about your being childfree?

How do you answer “Do you have kids?”

What is the best advice you’d offer someone else like you? (or What advice would you like to give to your younger self?)

Who is your personal chero (a heroine who happens to be childfree)? What about her inspires you?

What do you look forward to now?

What’s your Plan B?

What is your hope for yourself this coming year?

How has LWB helped you on your journey?
