The Winding Road
by Katya Sliunko
Welcome to The Winding Road. I'm your host, Katya Sliunko, life coach, fellow overthinker, and someone who spent years searching for clarity around one of life's biggest questions: Do I want to have kids? If you're feeling torn between different possibilities, overwhelmed by other people's opinions, or simply trying to understand what you truly want, you're in the right place. This podcast isn't here to tell you what decision to make. It's here to help you slow down, ask better questions, and reconnect with your own voice. Through honest conversations, personal stories, expert interviews, and practical tools, we'll explore the twists and turns that come with making deeply personal life decisions. Because clarity isn't about finding the "right" answer—it's about finding your answer. I'm so glad you're here. Let's begin.
