Hi Friend, have you heard the words "IVF is your only option?" Same. We heard from two different clinics that IVF would be our only option for conceiving. I was frustrated and annoyed. In this episode, I share what I wish someone had told me back when I first heard this diagnosis. I hope you find encouragement, strength, and clarity as you navigate your family's next steps in light of a similar diagnosis.

Before I met Josh, I worked as a Children's Ministry Coordinator at a church. They offered to pay for us to go through Financial Peace University a program by Dave Ramsey and his team. As a young college graduate with student loans, this was a huge gift to learn how to honor God with my finances. When Josh and I then got married, we went through the videos again as a married couple. The principles we learned in this course contributed to how we made financial decisions regarding our trying to conceive journey.

We had committed to always honor God with our finances, and we take to heart the principles shared in this course. It's one of the reasons we took years before we got to the financial and logistical point of pursuing IVF. I have chatted with so many women who shared how heartbroken they were that they did not consider the financial burden of taking loans out to pay for their treatments only to end up not getting pregnant. This is a very sensitive subject but I believe that this road of infertility and trying to conceive is ALREADY so hard. It doesn't have to be harder because of finances.

I wanted to interview Rachel because I wanted to share the resource of what they offer at Ramsey Solutions (this course: https://www.ramseysolutions.com/ramseyplus/financial-peace?snid=products.pay-off-debt-and-build-wealth.financial-peace-university ) but also to shed light that God's word speaks to us with how we are to approach decisions that impact our finances. Because that also impacts our marriages on the back end.

I'm so excited for you to hear from Rachel Cruze, best-selling Author, Ramsey Personality and Certified Financial Coach. You can connect with her here:
