In this heartwarming and honest conversation, we sit down with Elizabeth Car, the very first baby born through IVF in the United States. Elizabeth shares the incredible story of how her parents made history, what it was like growing up with the world watching, and how she turned that spotlight into a lifelong mission to educate and advocate.
We talk about the challenges her family faced, the pressure of being a “first,” and how the fertility space has changed (and what still needs to change). Elizabeth opens up about the stigma that still surrounds infertility, the emotional weight some families carry, and why it’s so important to talk openly, with our communities and with our kids, about how our families come to be.
Elizabeth’s story is not only a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come in fertility science, it’s also a testament to the strength, advocacy, and compassion she continues to bring to this space. Her work is nothing short of inspiring, and this conversation is one you won’t want to miss.
