The ingredients of a Full Stop podcast

• You will already listen to us or be familiar with our episodes.

• You do not need to be famous, have a good voice or massive amounts of tech.

• Our audience welcome honest conversation that includes the highs and lows.

• We expect our guests to share their podcast episode on their social media and/or newsletter if they have these resources or channels. Promoting your interview on your social media platforms is a great way to appreciate our time together and strengthens our collaborative relationship.

• Originality, a theme we’ve not yet covered or one that you think we need to return to. Tell us!

• Bring your story. We are happy to be part of a promotion but this must be balanced by a story or information to help our listeners.

• Diversity and inclusivity. We welcome all who are childless, not by choice, for any reason, into our space.

• Authenticity and passion, with a dollop of compassion. There is no competition in our space, we want you to succeed.

Diversity and inclusion

We are mindful of diversity and the empowered platform that our podcast can bring to spaces in our community such as single, chronic illness, ageing, LGBTQIA+, faith and colour. We never close down a conversation by speaking on behalf of others. We welcome you to our space.

We do not promote religious or political themes, anti-vaccine or oppression. We are a childless podcast, so trying to conceive or alternative ways to conceive are inappropriate.
