Love these podcast episodes from IWSTHAB an amazing nonprofit organization. Aimee is an expert interviewer and brings out honest, thoughtful and highly personal stories from all kinds of people who have experiences with fertility and infertility. I love listening to them and even though sometimes my heart breaks a little, I always feel inspired by the end of each episode
Such an important and comforting podcast. Thank you Dr. Baron!
So important to share these stories, these journeys, these resources. The experience of infertility is painful enough — going through it in isolation just makes it worse. Thanks for building community around this common experience and for sensitizing all of us to what the journey is like.
This whole series is incredibly genuine, heartfelt, informative, and supportive. the speakers bring a wide range of experience and knowledge making for a rich listen. Aimee (the host) does a fantastic job of bringing it all home and making everyone feel supported.
Dr. Friedman Baron’s gift is her ability to hold and create space, with her words and her presence. These podcasts are the kind of opportunity to open up a place in our hearts and minds for a new kind of listening and hearing, and I can only hope that those who listen are changed by them and share them as widely as possible. I am one of those who is changed.
