Childfree Life by Design
Childfree Life by Design is a podcast for people who are Childfree or permanently childless and thinking seriously about money, legacy, and what comes next. It tackles financial planning, estate planning, and life decisions for adults building a future without children and without a default script to follow.
Hosted by experts in financial and life planning, the show cuts through outdated assumptions about family, retirement, and aging. Conversations focus on utilizing wealth, solo aging, long-term care, relationships, and how to plan with clarity when you don’t have kids.
This isn’t about justifying your choices or debating labels. It’s about practical guidance for planning life without children making smart financial decisions, defining legacy on your own terms, and building support systems that actually work.
If you’re Childfree, childless, or planning without kids and want thoughtful, trusted education, this is where those conversations happen.

Unlearning the Standard Life Plan with Katy Seppi
In this episode of Childfree Wealth Podcast, hosted by Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP, invites special guest Katy Seppi, founder of The Childless Collective, to discuss the societal pressure to follow the standard life plan of going to college, getting married, buying a house, having kids, retiring, and passing on assets to the next generation.

In the podcast, Katy emphasizes that not having children does not make her life any less fulfilling, and that individuals have the ability to create a life that aligns with their unique circumstances and desires. The discussion also delves into the financial, mental, & emotional considerations and benefits of being childfree, including the ability to save and invest more for personal goals and experiences.
