Cristina Loaiza talks to Fertility Coach Jennifer Elworthy on the challenges that women face when building a career while also navigating fertility issues.

Jennifer Elworthy has over 20 years’ experience in marketing, working on some of the UK’s most well-known media brands from the BBC, ITV & News UK. 

In 2015 she experienced recurrent miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies, leaving her confidence at work at rock bottom.
