LIFE BEYOND EXPECTATIONS
The Childless Collective Summit is a 4-day virtual event, featuring 40 speakers, all focused on topics related to being childless not by choice. I know how hard it can be to find support and resources when you’re designing an unexpectedly childless life. That’s why I decided to bring all my favorite voices together for this one of a kind event. It’s the event I wish I’d had when I was trying to envision my life without kids.
As Jody Day says, “The room called childlessness has many doors.” Our stories are unique, but no matter where you’re at in your journey or how you got here, this summit will provide you with resources and support to take the next steps. Over these four days, you’ll hear from speakers from across the world to assure you that, while your life may not look the way you’d planned, it can still be filled with joy, love, meaning, and fulfillment.
Now for the part you’ve been waiting for. Here are the incredible speakers you’ll hear from at the Childless Collective Summit. You can also learn more about the speakers here.

The Childless Collective Summit is designed for those who are childless not by choice, regardless of the circumstances. It would also be helpful for those who are still pursuing parenthood but are considering a life without children as an option.
The summit runs from Thursday, July 14 to Sunday, July 17. The Facebook group will be available to join once you get your ticket and throughout the event.
Each recorded presentation will be available for 24 hours. However, you can grab one of the Extended Access Passes to get a full year of access to the presentations and special extras!
We never share your email address. You’ll only receive emails from Chasing Creation. That’s so you can get all the updates for the summit and links to each day’s videos. After the summit is over, you’ll continue to hear from me, but you can unsubscribe at any time.

To avoid tech glitches, lower my anxiety, and keep things easy for the speakers, most of the sessions are pre-recorded and will be released at the scheduled time. However, each speaker will be available live, in the chatbox during their scheduled presentation. We hope you’ll join us live to chat while you watch!
In addition to the pre-recorded presentations, we’ll also offer a few live, interactive sessions over Zoom! These will be noted on the schedule. We hope you’ll join us!
Yes! All pre-recorded sessions will include captioning. Live sessions will not include captioning, but they will be added in the versions included in the Extended Access Pass.
All of our speakers for this summit have been selected and our slots are currently full. However, we’re open to potential speakers or sponsors for next year’s summit. If you are interested in being considered for the Childless Collective Summit in 2023, email katy@chasingcreation.org.
We are currently looking for sponsors for the 2022 Childless Collective Summit. For more information, email katy@chasingcreation.org.
No problem! I’m quickest at responding to DM’s on Instagram so feel free to ask your questions there @Chasing.Creation. You can also email me at katy@chasingcreation.org and I will do my best to get back to you within three business days.
