82. Dear Former Fence-Sitter #3 with Amanda E. White, LPC

We're back for another episode of our Dear Former Fence-Sitter series with mom, therapist, and former fence-sitter, Amanda E. White!

(3:02) Meet Amanda

(8:01) Question 1: I feel like having a child will mean a more fulfilled life, but I can't seem to focus on anything but the downsides of parenthood. What should I do?

(23:10) Question 2: If I don't like other people's kids, is it still possible I'd enjoy having my own?

(36:31) Question 3: How do I know if the pull I feel to have a child comes from within — or is just external pressure?
