The Childfree Goddess Podcast

For many childfree women, our pets become some of the beings we love, nurture, and care for most deeply. But with that incredible love can also come a difficult reality: one day, we may have to say goodbye.
In this episode, I sit down with Jessica Richman, a childfree goddess, licensed social worker and certified End-of-Life Pet Doula, to talk about the powerful bond we form with animals, why pet loss deserves to be taken seriously, and the support available when navigating anticipatory grief and loss.
If you’ve ever loved a pet like family—or wondered how you’ll handle losing one someday—this conversation is for you 🐾💛 Learn more about Jess' work: Jess' website: https://jessicaendoflifepetdoula.carrd.co/ Jess' IG: https://www.instagram.com/jessica.petlossdoula/ For more Childfree Goddess content and resources visit: Website: https://www.childfreegoddess.com/ Substack: https://childfreegoddess.substack.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/life.without.kidsDiscord: https://mailchi.mp/lifewithoutkids/childfree-womens-circle-sign-up

Can you be confidently childfree and still wonder, “What if I regret this someday?”
In this episode of The Childfree Goddess Podcast, I’m getting honest about a topic that can feel taboo in childfree spaces: the doubts, fears, loneliness, curiosity, and even grief that can show up throughout our childfree journey.
I share what has been coming up for me as more women around me become mothers, the experiences and versions of myself I’ve had to grieve, and why none of these feelings make me less confident in my choice.
Because the goal isn’t to never question yourself again. It’s learning how to acknowledge and process those feelings without allowing them to keep you from going all in on the life you’ve chosen.
If thoughts of “what if?” have ever visited you, this episode is for you.

The Childfree Goddess Podcast is back for a new season, and this time I’m doing things differently.
After 75 days away from social media, I’ve been reflecting on creativity, AI, authenticity, and the pressure to make everything look polished and perfect. I realized I was trying to create this podcast by following the rules of people whose lives look completely different from mine.
And then it hit me: How often do we do the same thing with our childfree lives?
In this episode, I share some personal life updates, why I’m bringing video and a more natural, unfiltered format to the podcast, and what my four years as a digital nomad continue to teach me about creating a life on my own terms.
Most importantly, I invite you to ask yourself: Where are you still playing by rules created for people who don’t want the same life you want?
Welcome to Season 2, Goddess. It’s time to make our own rules.Check it out on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheChildfreeGoddessPodcast

A comment on Instagram sparked one of the most confronting reflections I’ve had in a long time.
In this episode of The Childfree Goddess Podcast, I respond to a message claiming that women who never give birth are at higher risk of cancer. A new twist on an old pressure tactic.
But this episode isn’t really about statistics.
It’s about fear.
It’s about how society shifts from calling childfree women selfish, to appealing to something even deeper: the fear of illness and death.
Through a powerful thought experiment, Wilmarie asks herself:
If not having children were directly linked to illness… would I regret my choice?
What follows is an honest exploration of mortality, grief, intentional living, and radical self-trust.
You’ll hear:✨ Why fear-based persuasion doesn’t work when you know yourself✨ How grief transformed my relationship with death✨ Why living intentionally eliminates regret✨ And the importance of focusing on direction, not speed, in your life
This is not a light episode.But it is a liberating one.
Because when you are at peace with your choices, even the ultimate fear loses its power.Find more at childfreegoddess.com

In this Valentine’s special episode of The Childfree Goddess Podcast, Wilmarie shares her personal childfree love story — from being the romantic teenager who swore she’d never marry, to building a marriage rooted in freedom, honesty, and conscious choice.
In this episode, she opens up about:
✨ Dating in her twenties as a confident childfree woman✨ The painful realization that many men still expected motherhood✨ Learning what she truly valued in a partner (beyond societal standards)✨ The decision to stop chasing love — and what happened next✨ Building a marriage based on freedom, shared values, and individual happiness
This is a story about high standards, self-trust, breaking generational patterns, and redefining what love and marriage can look like without children at the center.
It’s about choosing each other not out of obligation — but out of desire.It’s about a love that feels like home… and still tastes like adventure.It’s about proving that childfree love isn’t lacking — it’s liberated.
Whether you’re single, partnered, dating, or questioning what’s possible for you, this episode is a reminder that you get to make your own rules.
Because childfree women don’t just create different lives, we create different love stories.

In this episode of The Childfree Goddess Podcast, Wilmarie invites you to slow down, go inward, and return to the foundations of your wellbeing.
As winter calls us into rest and reflection, this conversation is a reminder that true confidence, clarity, and satisfaction in your childfree life begin with something simple: checking in with yourself.

Take a breath, pour your favorite drink, and come back home to yourself.

What if your choice to live childfree wasn’t something to defend, but something sacred to remember?
In this episode of The Childfree Goddess Podcast, Wilmarie invites you to meet the archetype that inspired this entire movement: the Childfree Goddess.
Wilmarie shares why she insists on calling childfree women goddesses — and how discovering an ancient Greek deity changed everything about the way she saw her womanhood and her path.
This episode is an invitation to connect with your inner sanctuary, wisdom, and centeredness, and to remember that your path is not a deviation from womanhood, but an expression of it.
Plus, Wilmarie shares a glimpse into the Childfree Sisterhood group program, where women go deeper into archetypes, mythology, and inner reconnection together.
