Not every path to parenthood ends in a baby — and not every story needs to.

In this episode of our Infertility Series we’re diving into three powerful, wildly different fertility journeys — all full of grit, heartbreak, humor, and the kind of truth we need to be talking about more.

➡️ Jess gets real about navigating IVF as a queer woman with her wife by her side. From failed transfers to giving progesterone shots in the stadium bathroom at OSU (true story), her journey is proof that love, persistence, and a solid sense of humor can carry you through just about anything.

➡️ Jessie was told she had less than a 5% chance of having a baby — and then went on to have four. She didn’t take no for an answer, found the right people who believed in her, and flipped the script in the most jaw-dropping way possible.

➡️ And Allie? Allie’s story is just as powerful — because she chose to not have kids. After treatments, heartache, and a whole lot of judgment from people who didn’t get it, she and her husband walked away and built a beautiful, full life in a different way. 

Whether you’re going through it, love someone who is, or just want to understand what this all really feels like — this one’s for you.

🧡 Listen now. Share with someone who needs it. And know this: whatever your path looks like… you’re not alone.
