The writers behind this newsletter.
I host Life Without Children, an inclusive space for people without kids and those who want to learn. Therapist-in-training, runner, dog-mad, nature-obsessed, ocean-oriented soul.
Emma Harris is a UK-based psychotherapist and clinical supervisor specialising in childlessness not by choice, neurodivergence and grief. She works with IFS and EMDR and lives in Dorset with her cat, Wendell.
Emerging writer, fully-formed researcher, apprentice crone, optimistic wayfarer, second mother.
Alice Cutler is an actor, stand-up, and writer navigating the waters of infertility and mental health. She lives part time in Los Angeles and part time in Idyllwild.
Writer, editor, journalist, and author. Debut memoir (Numb, Party of One) hits shelves in February 2027. As seen in HuffPost, Bustle, CNN, NBC, Food & Wine, The Daily Beast, YourTango, and Medium.
How do the patriarchy, maternal ambivalence & mother-daughter estrangement interconnect? I'm writing to find out. Work in LitHub, The Audacity, HuffPost, Litro, and more. Debut novel forthcoming from Unsolicited Press.
Writer. PhD in health information. Health warrior. Spiritual experimenter. Cat lover. Collector of moments.
Not married. Not a mother. Middle aged. The kind of woman who lives in a house on chicken legs.
I start things I may or may not finish. I’m a niche-less fool who writes and creates, and has more ideas than I know what to do with. Let’s connect or collaborate.
