Karen spent years wondering if her ex husband loved her enough to have kids with her, when a suggestion from her gynecologist turned into a wake-up call - "Time to talk about freezing your eggs" she said. And Karen's first thought was, "The cost of that could get me a bunch of trips to new countries I've never visited!" Truth was, Karen had a different trajectory for her life. When it came to having kids, she felt it's not a hell yes, it should be a no. After years of therapy, meditation and pranic healing she stopped listening to societal norms, her parents' hopes, and even her own presumptions about what it meant to be a woman. She also liberated her ex from carrying guilt about not 'giving' her kids in their marriage.
