Life Update: Girls' Trip, Valentine's in Aspen & the IVF Waiting Game

Listen Later

Ep. 177: I’m back from an amazing trip to Colorado, and in this solo episode, I’m sharing all the details—my first real girls’ trip, incredible food, nostalgic skiing, and the support I didn’t know I needed. Greg even came out to meet me for Valentine’s Day in Aspen, making the trip even more special. But beyond the fun, this time away gave me space to reflect on everything I’m going through with IVF. I’m opening up about the emotional ups and downs, how I’m staying grounded during the waiting period, and the mindfulness tools that are helping me through it.
