Mommy Oyoyo

80. African and Childfree by Choice feat. Zeezee A.

Typically in African society and culture, women are expected to not only have, but WANT to have children. From childhood, African women are generally told by society that marriage and motherhood are the ultimate life goals. In this episode, I speak with Zeezee, who has never felt the longing to be a mother. She shares very candidly about how she came to the decision to be childfree, navigating pushback and societal pressure, having difficult conversations with potential partners, and more! Whether you're firmly childfree, questioning your options, or simply curious about this life path, this episode is for you. RELATED EPISODES 1. Introduction to Mommy Oyoyo 24.
