Hello Beautiful  In this episode, I sit down with Carrie Hauskens as she talks about her own personal infertility journey from struggling to get pregnant to her miscarriage and all the things in between.  She gives a raw account of how much taking care of your mental health plays a role in the whole process, and how her attitude shifted during this process. We discuss the shift that takes place, p...

Working through our issues during infertility helps us become such a better mom.  In this episode I sit down with Jennifer Robertson as we talk about dealing with our  shit.  We tend to stuff down all the feelings and emotions that we go through during infertility.

When we are in the midst of our infertility journey the last thing we want to do is slow down, because...
