Celebrate Being Childfree A Retreat for Nonparents

FIND YOUR COMMUNITY

There are many reasons to be childfree. For some, not having kids is a conscious choice. For others, it just never happened. And for some who have experienced infertility, embracing a childfree life is a positive reframing of a path they never expected to take. 

Join author of Women Without Kids, Ruby Warrington, and activist and author, Rachel Cargle, for a weekend of childfree celebration and sisterhood. Ruby and Rachel will guide you through a series of interactive workshops designed to empower you in your childfree freedom.

Through journaling exercises, group discussion, and more, together we will: 

  • Dig deep into our childfree stories. 
  • Debunk the common stereotypes and stigmas surrounding nonparents. 
  • Heal the feelings of alienation and otherness that can accompany this orientation. 
  • Connect deeply in community with others navigating this unconventional life path. 
  • Create personal manifestos for what we want our legacy to be. 

Come celebrate everything it means to be childfree!
