They have been married for 6 years and dating for 13 years after meeting at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, MO. After both graduated from SEMO they moved to Seattle, WA where they began their professional careers. After living there for 3 years they moved back to St. Louis, MO where they got married, bought their first home and now onto their 2nd“forever” home. Blake works for Boeing in Program Management and Laura works full time for Sysco in sales and also a personal trainer at F45 and owns her own fitness company Spot on Strong that provides online fitness programs.

Their most recent journey has been trying for kids. They had been trying for kids for 2 years with no luck so they visited Vios Fertility to figure out their next steps and have been going through the IVF process.

In our second Infertility Awareness episode, we interview Tina Patti - Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, to discuss holistic ways to make changes to your body to help with possible infertility struggles. Tina is a licensed Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, is one of the few licensed in infertility in the STL metro, and works for Springer Physical Therapy in the STL area.

In this Episode, Sam and Taylor interview one of Sam's college friends about her journey to Parenthood. Katie goes into detail on her infertility, foster care, rainbow baby, thrifting, and DIYing.

About Katie:

I’ve been married to my husband David for nearly eight years and we recently had our first biological child, Eli (13 months). After enduring infertility and struggling to start our family, we decided to pursue foster care and became licensed foster parents in 2019. Through foster care we have cared for a total of eight children (four long-term placements), the longest placement being with us for eight months. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family,  thrifting, DIYing, home renovation, traveling and creating content for my Youtube channel.

In this episode, Sam and Taylor interview supermom, McKenzie who discusses her journey to becoming a mom. During the episode, McKenzie shares her experiences with pregnancy, labor and emergency c-section, and postpartum depression. McKenzie breaks down the cookie cutter #momlife experiences and challenges society's expectations of loving every second of your pregnancy and social norms of frolicing in a field of sunflowers as you're getting ready to pop.  If you are a mama who has had a c-section, know this: you are a mama no matter how your babies came into this world - and you rock!
