Super happy I found this podcast! It’s incredibly helpful to have a show that thoughtfully explores ART and infertility. I’ve already shared it with friends who are also navigating their fertility journeys. This is a must-listen whether you’re just beginning the process or currently in the midst of treatment. The interviews are excellent, and the resources shared are truly valuable.
Apple Podcasts5BarGin17United States4 months ago - Thankful for this podcast
As someone in the middle of an infertility journey, after a miscarriage and nearly two years of unexplained infertility, and now preparing to start IVF, this podcast has helped me immensely. Listening to other women’s stories, how they’ve navigated this difficult path, and how so many have come through on the other side has been both uplifting and deeply comforting. I’ve also learned a lot while listening that has prompted questions I’ve been able to ask my provider. Thank you so much.
