What Life Is Like After You Decide Not To Have Kids Jun 23, 2024

Show notes

Subscribe to Mamamia

If you're a girl or a woman who doesn't think she wants to have kids - where are your role models for what your life could look like?

Portrayals of happy mums are everywhere, but rarely do we see women who choose not to have children shown in a positive light.

Ten years ago, journalist and editor Farrah Storr decided to be a non-parent. In the years since that decision, she has learned so much about the many ways a woman can live a rich, connected and fulfilling life without having children. And lucky for us, she’s turned her observations into a list of aha moments and beautiful surprises that we can all learn from, whether we are parents or non-parents, and she shares them with Mia Freedman in this episode of No Filter.

You can read Farrah’s substack “Things Worth Knowing” here.

And you can follow her on Instagram here.

How Remy And Alain Became Fathers To Three Children Overnight May 26, 2024

Show notes

Subscribe to Mamamia
When Remington and his husband Alain welcomed three children into their home 18 months ago, as foster parents, they knew their lives would never be the same. What they didn't know is how long their children would stay.
In Australia, thousands of children find themselves in foster care for various reasons: neglect, abuse, trauma or simply their biological parents can't afford to raise them.
Remington Meyer talks to Mia Freedman in this No Filter episode about the deeply emotional journey of bringing kids into their lives and what it's like shifting your world from just a quiet couple to a vibrant house of five.
And he answers the question: how do you open your heart knowing you might have to say goodbye?
If you’re interested in being a foster carer, please contact Anglicare Southern Queensland via their website or call 1300 000 828 or head to Barnardos Australia.

Patric Gagne Is A Sociopath May 19, 2024

Show notes

You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with Patric here.
Subscribe to Mamamia
Patric Gagne is not what most people picture when they hear the word ‘sociopath’. For example, she’s married and has two children. She’s a functioning member of society. She has friends.

Sociopaths tend to lie, break laws, act impulsively and they have little regard for their own safety because they simply don’t have fear or guilt. All these things are true for Patric.

In this conversation Patric talks to Mia Freedman about the emotions she doesn't feel, the signs that popped up when she was a child and what it's like being friends with a sociopath.

It’s believed just under 5% of the population are sociopaths, that’s one in 25 people. That’s why Patric wrote her memoir Sociopaths, to share what it’s really like.
Patric's book Sociopaths is available here

Subscribe to Mamamia
In the second episode of our 3-part No FIlter mini-series featuring interviews with Olympians before they head to Paris to compete, Matilda's star Katrina Gorry opens up to guest host Libby Trickett in a way that takes them both by surprise.

Gorry captured our hearts at the Women’s World Cup in 2023- as did her two-year-old daughter Harper. Coming back to work after having a baby is difficult for any parent, particularly when your job involves playing for your country. Still, Katrina had the highest number of tackles of any player and covered the most ground.
Now Katrina and her partner Clara Markstedt are expecting another baby, just in time for the Paris Olympics.

The first time Keri Kitay’s mother Terry forgot where she parked her car, she was surprised and annoyed. But she wasn’t alarmed. It wasn’t until years later that she would realise it was one of the first signs of early onset Alzheimers which would slowly dismantle her mother’s life.
There are around 15 Australians per 1,000 living with dementia and a tiny percentage of those are relatively young.

This is the story of one person and the way her family said their long goodbye.
Keri's book The Long Goodbye is available here.
