67: Patriarchy and Pronatalism and Their Impact on Childless Women, with Jody Day

Time: 1:07:22
There is so much systemic prejudice towards childless women ingrained in our society today that stem from ancient patriarchal and pronatalist views and government policy.  Most of us don't even realize the extent.  I didn't realize it and received a bit of an awakening right on the show. 
Jody Day, the "mother" of the childless woman movement, joined me on this episode to share her story and why she started Gateway Women.  Her own need for community and support led to a network for childless women, a book, two Tedx talks and countless other accomplishments in the childless space.  
Have a listen as we discuss:

Description

You’re on a new path and one you didn’t expect to travel. And it’s definitely a road less travelled. It’s the one without kids. My name is Sheri Johnson and I’m on it too. No matter how you got here – pregnancy loss, infertility, never finding the right partner - the loneliness and lack of childlessness is the same. The triggers? They’re universal. That feeling of inadequacy in a world so focused on motherhood is what we all feel. It all boils down to our sense of worth. This is where we walk the path together and we talk about building our sense of worth, so we too, can find our place, and live joyful, fulfilling lives as a childless women.
