Join us this week as we tackle one of the most challenging holidays for women on fertility journeys—Mother's Day. We're honoured to welcome renowned gynaecologist, fertility specialist and Director of Genea Fertility Melbourne City, Dr. Chandrika Parmar, who brings her expertise not just as a fertility specialist but as someone who deeply understands the emotional complexities her patients face during these celebration-focused times. Dr. Parmar shares thoughtful insights on managing grief triggers, setting healthy boundaries with family, and creating meaningful rituals that honour your journey. We discuss practical strategies for navigating social media, family gatherings, and well-meaning but painful comments, plus specific language for declining invitations when needed. Whether you're years into your fertility journey or just beginning, this episode offers both the validation and practical tools needed to move through Mother's Day with your heart intact. Dr. Parmar's compassionate approach reminds us that there's no right way to experience this day—only what feels right for you.
