Knowing there are options means you make better choices (Q&A with Genevieve Roberts)

As you will have seen this morning, my interviewee this month is Genevieve Roberts. She is the author of Going Solo: My Choice to Become a Single Mother Using a Donor, which is about her journey to having her two children, Astrid and Xavi, on her own. She also regualrly writes on the topic of being a single mum (and I have shared quite a few of her articles in this newsletter) and she is also the founder of One Pair Of Hands, a newsletter for single parents.

Earlier this year, following a conversation over Twitter DM, Genevieve kindly sent me a copy of her book and I have been wanting to interview her since then. Although we did speak about her decision to become a mother on her own, the conversation was quite wide-ranging and I think the advice she gives to her teenage self is something we could all live by even as adults. I hope you’ll enjoy it even if you never want kids or it’s not currently on your radar!
