  • Great insights!

    That was a fabulous interview with Amanda Knox. She shares really helpful wisdom there that I personally really needed. And such kindness always from Róisín Ingle! I’ve been a fan of Róisín for over a decade. Two warm, intelligent, strong and generous women. Thank you!

  • Thank you

    For an Irish person living overseas this podcast is just fantastic. I am transported back home to a good afternoon with my girlfriends, and for that, thank you. I have learned so much since I started listening not to mention the new list of book recommendations that I’m eager to get through. I’m thrilled to have found The Women’s Podcast.

  • Let the guests speak

    I used to love this podcast, but Roisin’s constant interrupting & talking over guests is annoying.

  • Love this pod,but…

    I adore this podcast but giving a platform to someone claiming to be a nutritionist (she’s not) and who trots around supermarkets demonising food and spouting rehashed nonsense about additives, all the while selling an online ‘course’ was a disappointing turn of events for this show. Don’t judge this pod on that one show, it’s usually excellent!

Childfree by choice at 77: Helen Taylor reflects on a life without children
Q: You were born in the 1940s. And what I found really interesting about your story is that your mom, Ida, she would tell you over and over again when you were younger not to have children. Why did she tell you this?
