SUMMARY:The Other Path: A Workshop for Women without Children (In Person)
DESCRIPTION:Join other childless or childfree women on this Other Path as we tell our stories\, explore our challenges\, grieve our losses\, ask our questions\, discover our fertile gifts\, and birth our creative desires.\nBeing a woman without children is a significant experience that often goes unnamed or marginalized. Perhaps you find yourself on the Other Path because of a decision your body made\, one you forgot to make\, one you made freely\, or one you are struggling with today. Whatever the circumstance\, being a woman without being a mother in the “traditional” way evokes its own unique feelings\, considerations\, and experiences that deserve to be named and shared in the company of like women. Join other childless or childfree women on this Other Path as we tell our stories\, explore our challenges\, grieve our losses\, ask our questions\, discover our fertile gifts\, and birth our creative desires.
