Description

LINDA WENT ROGUE THIS WEEK! After I interviewed Alexandra Collier on her experiences on becoming a single mother with a sperm donor, Linda decided to reach out to her via email to ask her all the important questions that I had apparently missed... Alexandra (or as Linda now knows her, Ally) kindly obliged. This is Single Minded, the podcast flipping the script on being single. Because being single is awesome.On today's episode, I chat to writer Alexandra Collier, who lived in New York for 10 years, before moving to Melbourne to start the process of becoming a single mother by choice. AND I HAD SO MANY QUESTIONS! As someone that is considering freezing their eggs, it was inspiring to hear from a woman who is breaking down the stigma of having a child alone.  You can read her Sydney Morning Herald piece here: https://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/life-and-relationships/leaving-the-land-of-romantic-fantasy-why-i-chose-to-be-a-single-mum-20201007-p562xu.html"Leaving the land of romantic fantasy"...

Single Minded is the podcast flipping the script on being single. It's for independent thinkers who are forging their own paths, with a healthy dose of dating chat & lols. Hosted by Hannah Furst and her mum Linda, each fortnight they delve into topics like creating an authentic dating profile, single shaming, egg freezing, financial independence, travelling solo, navigating a one night stand and forging your own path in life. It was created for women of a certain age who are sick of the societal pressure towards settling down. They don't want to wait to meet someone before their real lives can begin, because being 'single minded' is about living your best life NOW.
