LFPWLI: Struggling with Infertility and Reclaiming Your Life (part 2) with Brandi 

 

In the second of this two-part series, Mathew, Dr. Frank, and Brandi discuss struggles with infertility and the eventual journey to motherhood. When Brandi and her husband began trying to get pregnant, she was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis. After multiple failed IUI procedures, several unsuccessful rounds of IVF, and a difficult search for an egg donor, they eventually had twins and are now parents to two beautiful boys.

 

Brandi’s story shows the importance of reclaiming control and embracing your own story in order to move past trauma. She how she came to forgive herself after her abortion and how a life-altering car accident showed her the importance of sharing her story with other women. She offers comfort and support to others who may be struggling with infertility and the aftermath of abortion, letting them know that they are not alone in their journey.

 

“As I was being stitched up from the c-section, I felt like my heart was being stitched back together as well.”

 

In this episode, you'll hear: 

  • Why you need to reclaim power and own your story in order to move past trauma
  • How Brandi found her egg donor
  • That “being on the other side of things” looks different for everyone
