When Liv reached her mid-thirties as a single woman, she made a decision that would change her life: to have a child on her own. In this episode, she talks to us about navigating fertility clinics, buying sperm from Denmark, and the emotional rollercoaster of choosing solo parenthood.

Liv shares the grief she carried through her twenties and thirties watching people around her start families, the moment she decided to go it alone, and the incredible journey that brought her son Herb into the world..

We chat about the impossible task of choosing a donor, the challenges of doing it all solo, and what’s surprised her about Herb as he’s grown up. 

Plus - Herb joined us in the studio, and honestly, it melted our hearts!
