The Motherhood Question - A Workbook for Women Who Aren't Sure Yet
This is a compassionate workbook for women seeking their truth about becoming a mother or remaining child-free. With the help of over 150 questions, the goal is to bring you clarity, and to touch on some important themes:
→ External pressure is real, but it's not your truth.
Family expectations, societal timelines, biological clocks, partner desires, friend comparisons—all of these are loud. This workbook is designed to help you turn down that noise so you can hear your own voice.
→ Both paths are valid.
Motherhood is profound. So is a child-free life. Neither is a consolation prize. Neither guarantees happiness or fulfillment. Both require intention, choice, and courage.
→ Clarity brings freedom.
Even if the decision feels heavy right now, there is deep peace on the other side of knowing what you want. Once you're clear, you can commit. You can stop second-guessing. You can build the life that's yours.
The workbook is divided into 8 sections:
Looking Back - Exploring the stories you were told about motherhood, family, and womanhood
Looking Inward - Discovering who you are now—your values, your joys, your definition of a meaningful life
Looking Forward (With a Child) - Imagining motherhood honestly and fully
Looking Forward (Without a Child) - Imagining a child-free life honestly and fully
The Practical Realities - Considering resources, logistics, and support systems
Fears & Doubts - Examining what scares you about each path
Your Inner Compass - Tuning into gut feelings, body wisdom, and the quiet voice beneath the noise
Synthesis & Next Steps - Reflecting on what's emerged and exploring paths forward
