81. Faith in the Wilderness and Trusting God in the Childless Journey

Hi friend! If you are a woman who does not have kids by chance, not by choice, this message is for you. If you had an inner desire to be a mother but never came to reality, this show is for you. If you got married at a later stage in your life, or if you are single and you never had the chance to even try, this is for you.

If you were a mama at some point and suffered a loss, this is for you too. And if you want to feel like you are a part of a community alongside other women who have walked a similar path, who understand you, who see you and feel you, this is where you belong. This show is called By Chance Podcast, a space for sacred conversations with women who don't have kids by chance, not by choice.

We will have conversations with brave women who share their stories with grit and resilience. We'll also bring on different guests who will help us continue to grow and guide us in our healing journey. I will share with you tools that helped me thrive over the last 20 plus years, even when I battled years of depression and anxiety.

Each week, I will bring you an episode that will be a reminder that our struggles, fears, and joys are universal threads that bind us all together. This show will be heartwarming, vulnerable, fun, and educational. I'm Elizabeth Tiglao Gus, your new friend and podcast host. I am a woman who has overcome 10 years of infertility struggles, including three years of failed adoptions.

So trust me when I say, I see you. I am also a social entrepreneur and a life coach, focusing on helping women thrive rather than just survive. I help women who are ready to transform their lives, empower themselves to live with purpose and radical self love. If you are ready to be part of this community, come with me.

Together let's celebrate life and being a woman without being defined by the rule of motherhood. And my hope is that you will feel seen, heard, and feel less alone when you tune in. Now it's time. Let's go. Let's go.
