How Tash tackled fertility challenges, disordered eating recovery, and IVF to create her perfect family.

In this episode of No Need for Prince Charming, Tash shares her inspiring journey to becoming a solo mum by choice to her beautiful daughter, Izzy.

With the support of a trusted GP, she navigated fertility challenges, endured a failed IUI, and found success through IVF. Her story highlights resilience, emotional preparation, and the importance of building a support network. Tash also reflects on pregnancy during Melbourne’s lockdowns and the joy of finally embracing motherhood after years of uncertainty.

  • The importance of a supportive GP and fertility specialist.

  • Moving from IUI to IVF after a long and challenging process.
