Who is the Full Stop Community for?

Our online community is for childless-not-by-choice people, this means we welcome anyone who identifies as not being a parent, not by choice for any reason.

It’s perfect for people who listen to the Full Stop podcast and would like to get more involved in the longest running podcast for the childless community. You can do this by coming along to the live podcast recordings and asking questions in our online space in real time that will be answered by us or the guests. If the podcast is new to you, then you’ll get a very warm welcome to our online space that’s the only one open to all genders affected by childlessness.

You can chat about the themes raised in the recording in our post-recording space, and provide feedback which we always listen to. There’s always an opportunity to suggest themes for our podcast episodes and guests. But, if you’d simply like a place to ‘be’ then that’s okay too, there is never any pressure to post or take part.

It’s more than the podcast!

We are developing resources that our online community can access for free, and help to shape. How about contributing and writing a resource with support from us including professional design and development? And if you’re creating a service or developing an idea for the childless community, we’ll share that in our popular and well-read newsletter that goes out with each podcast episode.

You’re probably already familiar with the friendly vibe and honest conversation in our podcast and you’ll find this reflected in this safe space.

As owners and founders we show up but it is our members' space to shape and develop. There’s room to celebrate wins, share resources, rant and grieve with new friends who get it. We’re also pleased to say that in the first year of opening, we’ve never been required to moderate any problematic content, nor have there been any data breaches or security issues that are often found with Facebook.

A member shared that they had ‘grown with us’ and that’s a great summary. It’s not for you if you’re trying to conceive, but if you’re seeking support and empowerment in your childless life and solid friendship then this is your place.

If you have any questions, you can drop us a line or arrange a chat with Michael, Sarah or Berenice, just pop us an email and we’ll get right back to you firstname@thefullstoppod.com
