Are we ignoring the non-parents? with Lisa Kissane
In today’s episode, I got the chance to geek out with a fellow youth professional, Lisa Kissane. Lisa is a website and sales page copywriter for service-based businesses that are dedicated to doing good for others. With her background as a social worker, we bonded over the importance of having a sense of purpose in our work.
Lisa shared her experiences of feeling unrepresented as a woman without children—in literature, community, and even in language. She took us through her inspiring journey of developing a book club for non-mothers and the wider community she’s building. She’s the founder of Flow: The Non-Parent Network, a business networking group for people who don't have kids.
Our conversation opened up intriguing avenues around cultural reference points, labels, assumptions, and the terminology we use every day—plus JD Vance's stab at childless cat ladies.
Join us as we dive into an exploration of roles, nuance, and the significance of community!
