It was a blast from the past to sit down with my friend and former co-worker Amanda Lane. Join us as we reminisce about dating apps, discuss her decision to embrace van life, examine the ecological merits of not having children, and question why the American dream of buying a house is even necessary.  Amanda&apos;s story is a testament to living life on her own terms and never succumbing to societal expectations. It was such a treat to reconnect with an old friend over a newfound affinity - I hope you love her story as much as I do!<a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2225488/support">Support the show</a>Email me questions at <a href='mailto:childfreemepodcast@gmail.com'>childfree.me.podcast@gmail.com</a> - I&apos;d love to hear from you!
