Letters to our Younger Selves
The #NomoCrones gathered for a Fireside Wisdom Session on this powerful World Childless Week 2022 theme. Listen to us read our letters and reflect on them.
#NomoCrones (nomo is a word I created which means ‘not-mother’ and crone is not an insult!)
On September 14, the #NomoCrones gathered around the Zoom-fire to share their letters and reflections on the “Letter to our Younger Selves” theme of this day for World Childless Week 2022.
Whether you were with us live, or weren't able to make it, or just would like to watch it, please click the video above or this link to watch.
Thank you to each of the fabulous #NomoCrones for taking part and for sharing their amazing letters with us. I am still processing all that I heard, that's for sure.
