Description

In this episode of Growing, host Beth sits down with Alexandra Collier, an award-winning Melbourne writer who alongside an amazing career is a solo mum by choice. 


Ally’s memoir Inconceivable details her journey into motherhood after waking up one day with a strong urge to start a family, a goal that her partner didn’t share. 


In this chat, Ally shares what it was like to return to her parents home, age 37, heartbroken and yearning to be a mum, the joys and challenges of eventually realising that dream and provides insight into how we can better support people in non-traditional family structures to thrive. 


Beth absolutely loved this chat. Ally is warm, funny and incredibly clever. A must listen!
