Welcome to season 3!

Emotional Intelligence Teacher and Scientific Yogi, Sherrie Laryse, shares her journey in trying to start a family, along with the techniques and meditations that she took herself through to find peace with her situation along the way. Sherrie journalled all the way along this journey; a journal which was ultimately published as a raw, tell-all memoir, called On Path. This inspirational book talks through how to overcome life challenges, how to process emotions, and how to find peace in the face of loss.

A little note from Sherrie- After she recorded this episode, she realized she said philanthropy but meant altruism.

The part that got my jaw dropping to the floor was that she didn't respond to the popular IVF drug Orgalutran... absolutely devastating!

Taleeha retells her IVF tale. After trying to fall pregnant naturally for a year with no success, they sought help from a specialist, where she was diagnosed with PCOS. Taleeha experienced irregular periods and found it hard to track her ovulation. The first recommendation was to try OI which they did for many months with no success. It was time to see a fertility specialist, and further investigations were undertaken, which still gave no other reason for infertility. IVF was the next step. Taleehas story is a perfect example of 'it only takes one' as they fell pregnant on their first IVF cycle.

Jade talks to me all the way from the other side of the world. Many LOL and WTF moments in this one! Jade hilariously retells her IVF journey and the inspiration behind her memoir The good news is... you don't have Endometriosis.
