In this episode of the Power of Peacefulness Podcast, host Sharon McLaughlin, MD, interviews Dr. Gail Miller, a life coach and maternal fetal medicine physician who is childless not by choice. Dr. Miller discusses the challenges of probing inquiries and the importance of setting boundaries when faced with uncomfortable questions about personal matters like having children. She emphasizes the need for empathy and awareness, encouraging listeners to be mindful of their intentions and to pay attention to the reactions of those they question. Dr. Miller shares personal anecdotes to illustrate the emotional toll of insensitive questions and offers advice on how to respond and deflect such inquiries gracefully.

Dr. Miller also talks about her book, "Missing Motherhood, A Path Onward," which explores the journey of women who are childless not by choice, the stages of dealing with this loss, and the process of creating a new dream for the future. The conversation highlights the societal pressures and self-doubt faced by women in this situation and provides strategies for overcoming feelings of unworthiness. Dr. Miller's book and free online resources aim to support and empower women dealing with these challenges. The episode concludes with information on how to contact Dr. Miller and access her resources.
