Today is Publication Day!

My new book, Life Without Baby: Surviving and Thriving When Motherhood Doesn’t Happen is making its debut today and I’m so pleased to be able to share it with you. It’s chock full of everything I’ve learned on this long, sometimes rocky, path to making peace with a life without children.

Perhaps the most important lesson I’ve learned since deciding to walk away from the possibility of motherhood is that none of us needs to go through this alone. Even though I once felt as if I was the only person this had ever happened to, I quickly learned that there is a generous and supportive community of women out there. And I’d like to introduce you to some of them.

Over the next couple of weeks, I’ll be visiting some of my favorite bloggers around the world. I hope you’ll come with me to discover some new resources and to meet some truly remarkable women.

I’m kicking off my tour today with a trip to Australia, where I join Michelle Marie McGrath on her Unclassified Woman podcast. Michelle has put together a fantastic series of interviews with childless and childfree women from around the world. We spoke about dealing with grief, debunking myths about childlessness, and about the healing power of writing and other creative pursuits.

Michelle will also be giving away of copy of my book, so we sure to tune in for your chance.
