  • Struggle with host

    This podcast has great information but I was thrown off when I realized the picture on the title page of the podcast is not the host. Also as I listened I found the host would constantly reference her surrogacy journey in the middle of interviewing people.

  • 1x GC

    So I started listening to this podcast from the beginning and as soon as I hit episode 3 with Brooke I might have to reevaluate 😅 I was a GC for her at her agency, Roots, in 2019 and have nothing nice to say about her. Other than that, first 2 episodes are great!
