Finding connections with the childless community
Reaching out to the childless community for the first time can feel really daunting. How easy is it to connect over our childlessness anyway? The fact that you’re thinking about looking for connection in this community means that at some level you’ve accepted that you belong here. It takes courage to get to where you are right now.
This guide provides supportive advice on finding your space and places where you can connect.
This guide was written by Sarah Lawrence, MBACP Dip. Trauma-informed counsellor for the childless community and owner of After the Storm. Co-director and co- founder of The Full Stop Community CIC and co-presenter of The Full Stop podcast.
