Hi I’m Juli. I’m childless by circumstance after taking the time out to manage a lengthy healing journey from complex trauma alongside endometriosis and adenomyosis, and ultimately just never meeting the “right” person, after recovering from abusive relationship cycles.
I’m a neurodivergent Life Coach & Trauma Therapy Practitioner and I see childlessness through a trauma-informed lens. My aim is to support childless clients by equipping them with an array of tailored therapeutic, coaching and energy healing tools that they can use day to day. I recognise the importance of both validating the trauma of childlessness from a mind-body perspective, in combination with the moving forwards element, enabling us to live the lives - we may not have planned - but truly deserve.
I found my own voice surrounding childlessness during the lockdown of 2020, which led me to setting up @the.childless.circle on TikTok, (and more recently Instagram), where I proudly “advocate, educate and validate all things childless”. I also hold a Psychology MSc from Birmingham City University, where I undertook a research project for my final dissertation, exploring the long-term impacts of circumstantial childlessness in women from mid to later life.
I first discovered the childless community via WCW around seven years ago, and was welcomed by Steph with open arms; it’s not an over-exaggeration to say that was a life-changing moment which opened the door to community and ultimately my own healing journey. To now be invited as an official Ambassador for WCW is a real honour, and I feel both grateful and privileged to have the chance to give back to such an incredible, diverse and inspiring community.
