This week we have fiction writer and mom to one amazing 10-year-old, Joy Netanya Thompson, on the pod to discuss why she chose to stick with having just one kid. Joy gets real about postpartum depression, the decision to stop at one when she never imagined she'd only have one child, and why people need to stop asking invasive questions about family size. Also: January birthdays are hell, boys are eternally and confidently dumb, and why siblings don't guarantee friendship or support
