Building your family

Listen to your gut with Jarret Zafran


Listen Later

There are some things we share on the podcast that are objective.  As a researcher, I have tremendous regard for focusing on what is proven and making well educated choices. As a therapist, I also understand that choosing a donor is a very personal, and often emotionally charged experience.  Even the most academically oriented people I see often make decisions based on emotion.  There is no right and wrong here.  What's most important is that you are educated about your options, and then make a choice that's right for you.

 

In this episode, you will meet Jarret Zafran. He is a lawyer and runs a surrogacy agency which he built from the bricks of knowledge he gleaned on his way to becoming a father.  

 

It was not always easy for Jarret and his husband Elliot, but they learned how to navigate the surrogacy and egg donor process, make decisions as a team and in the end, trust their gut, which may sound surprising coming from two academically oriented men.

I'm sure you will get some great “take away’s” for yourself or someone you care about.  Enjoy!
