  • The Woman Who Came First
    Dec 12 2025

    Send us a text

    For a long time, I’ve noticed the way we talk about motherhood — how often it’s framed as the moment a woman becomes whole.

    As someone who is pregnant and stepping into this next chapter, I wanted to slow that conversation down.

    In this episode, I reflect on motherhood as a new level, not a missing piece. I talk about the years of becoming that make strong mothers possible, the women in my life whose lives are already full and meaningful without children, and why implying something was “missing” before motherhood denies the very structure that makes motherhood grounded and healthy.

    Nothing was missing. Not before. Not now.

  • IVF Explained: My Entire Journey From First Consult to Transfer Day
    Dec 2 2025

    Send us a text

    If you’ve ever wondered how IVF actually works, this episode walks you through everything.

    I’m taking you from my first consultation in August 2024, through the endless labs and imaging, my Lupron era, stimulation meds, bloating, monitoring ultrasounds, and the entire egg retrieval process. Then I break down exactly what happens to the eggs in the lab… fertilization, embryo development, blastocyst grading, and PGT testing. And finally, we walk through the embryo transfer process: how estrogen and progesterone work, what lining monitoring looks like, and how the actual transfer takes less than 20 seconds but somehow changes everything.

    This is a long, honest, detailed episode designed for:

    • anyone starting IVF
    • anyone supporting a friend going through IVF
    • or anyone who wants to feel seen, validated, and less alone

    If you’re navigating infertility or preparing for IVF, I hope this episode arms you with clarity and reminds you that you’re not walking this road alone.

  • “Kids Are Soooo Expensive…”
    Nov 24 2025

    Send us a text

    “Kids are expensive,” they say.

    And I’m over here like… my daughter has already cost me FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS. And she’s still in the womb.

    In today’s episode, I break down the unbelievable (but very real) financial side of IVF: meds, retrievals, transfers, testing, monitoring, and the fun little plot twist of having Factor V Leiden, which means daily Lovenox injections to keep both of us safe.

    And don’t worry, insurance makes multiple appearances… mostly as the villain.

    If you’ve been through fertility treatments or are in the thick of them now, this episode will feel way too familiar.

    Let’s talk about the true price of a miracle.

  • What the Last 15 Weeks Have Really Looked Like

    TW: Infertility, miscarriage, pregnancy after loss

    The past 15 weeks have been a whirlwind... from our embryo transfer, to the waiting, to the stress of every ultrasound, and the quiet battle of trying to find peace in the storm. Pregnancy after loss isn’t simple or carefree, it’s layered with fear, gratitude, and constant prayer.

    If you’re still waiting, still grieving, or if hearing someone else’s update feels heavy right now, please know I understand. Listen when and if you’re ready. This isn’t a glossy highlight reel. It’s the messy, honest story of what the last 15 weeks have looked like for me.

  • Spirit, Lead: Finding Order in the Chaos of Infertility
    Oct 2 2025

    Send us a text

    Infertility has a way of turning life upside down—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In this episode, I open up about what it feels like to live in that constant state of disorder and how the Holy Spirit keeps drawing me back into alignment. We’ll talk about the chaos of treatments and waiting, the struggle to release control, and what it really looks like to live Spirit-led when nothing is going the way you planned. If you’ve ever felt lost in the waiting or wondered if God still sees you, this conversation is for you.

  • Why Is This All On Me?
    Sep 29 2025

    Send us a text

    What does the mental load of IVF really look like? It looks like me stepping out of a women’s church conference with a full heart… only to end up sobbing in the hallway because my IVF clinic didn’t have an ultrasound report they needed before 3 p.m. It looks like chasing labs, begging pharmacies, and missing family moments — all because time is everything in fertility treatments and nobody else can carry the weight but you.

    In this episode, I share the raw reality of the invisible work behind IVF: the phone calls, the panic, the missed moments, the cold ultrasound techs, the thousands of dollars on the line, and the constant fear that one mistake could derail everything. If you’ve felt the crushing mental load of fertility treatments, you’re not alone.

  • Finding My Voice Again
    Sep 22 2025

    Send us a text

    After weeks of silence, I am back at the mic, and I want to be honest about why. In this episode, I open up about how both positive and negative feedback have shaped my journey with this podcast, how infertility has shifted my friendships, and what I learned recently in my women’s business cohort about choosing your “personal board of directors.”

    Infertility and IVF are not tidy stories. They are messy, emotional, and sometimes uncomfortable. But authenticity matters more than perfection. Today I am recommitting to showing up here with honesty, even if it risks being misunderstood, because I know there is someone listening who needs to hear they are not alone.

  • Little Joys While Navigating Infertility

    Infertility is heavy. But this episode? It’s a soft place to land.

    In this episode, I’m inviting you into the small joys that have kept me going in the middle of the hardest season of my life. This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a slow, honest look at what joy can still look like, even here.

    From my husband’s love of mountain biking… to long piano sessions… to cooking gourmet meals when my heart was shattered… to our two ridiculous cats who have no idea what IVF is but show up anyway, this episode is a full exploration of the things that remind me I’m still a whole person, even in the waiting.

    If you’ve felt like you’re not allowed to smile until the test turns positive—this one is for you.

    Joy isn’t a reward. It’s a lifeline.
