Ever wondered why it's so tough to become a Surrogate? In this Surrogacy Talk, we dive into the stringent qualifications required to become a Surrogate with Golden. Despite the high demand for Surrogates, only about 2% of applicants meet our criteria. As the director of a surrogacy agency, I'll share the inside scoop on why our standards are so high and the surprising reasons behind them. We'll explore the reasons behind our selective process and discuss why it's essential for agencies like ours to maintain these high standards.

Over 10 years ago, the birth of Frank and Adam’s daughter lit a spark that ignited the inspiration for what Golden Surrogacy is today. It has been 10 years and in this Surrogacy Talk, Frank reflects on that day and how one thought he had while holding his daughter became Golden’s slogan.
No one likes to hear that their expectations are unrealistic. This is especially true for Intended Parents embarking on a surrogacy journey. But the truth of the matter is that no two surrogacy journeys are the same, and if Intended Parents are unwilling to budge on certain expectations, they are setting themselves up for disappointment. Whether it be regarding costs, timelines, chances of success, or even levels of involvement, it is important to manage expectations to get the most from a surrogacy journey.
The question, “How much does surrogacy cost” can be intimidating. If you are an Intended Parent looking for a surrogacy agency to work with, you have probably seen a wide range of numbers from different agencies. In this Surrogacy Talk, you will get an overview of the numbers you can expect if you partner with Golden Surrogacy. Frank will also discuss the dangers of working with an agency that advertises inaccurate costs. At the end of the day, whether you choose to partner with Golden or another agency, you deserve accuracy and transparency.
You want to become a Surrogate and you are living in Florida. Where should your surrogacy agency be located? Are you limited to only working with agencies that are also in Florida?

Believe it or not, whether you are an Intended Parent or a Surrogate, you will never have to visit your agency in person.
For Intended Parents and Surrogates, it is important to be open to developing a relationship with each other during your surrogacy journey. But what about once your journey is complete? Are you expected to remain friends? In this Surrogacy Talk, Frank answers a question submitted by Mary, a two-time Golden Surrogate. He opens up about his relationship with both of his Surrogates and how he navigated those relationships during and after his children were born.
