In recognition of National Infertility Awareness Week (April 18-24), we wanted to bring in a different perspective of working through Infertility. What we have learned is that everyone’s family planning journey is very unique. Many’s stories end with much joy, but also, so many stories are extremely difficult to live through. And, unless you have struggled with infertility or with a pregnancy loss, you don’t realize how common it is and how uncommon it can be to welcome a healthy baby home. 

Thankfully, today’s guest Ali Prato (host of the podcast Infertile AF) has helped create community around infertility, giving people a way to talk through and share their pain with others. This support system is a beautiful representation of The Third Place, allowing space for dialogue around one of our least talked about topics.

***********

The Third Place Podcast.is a weekly podcast that invites listeners into the hard conversations that we have a tendency to avoid.

We “go there” on things such as…

• How anger is beautiful
• How to find presence amidst chaos
• How to have difficult conversations
• How to be an ally
• How to live with grief

The Third Place is a safe place where curiosity is encouraged, differences are welcomed, and empathy is embraced through healthy dialogue.

We've forgotten how to talk to each other… Life has become polarized and dualistic - you’re either with me or against me. To embrace the complex human experience is to see the world through other’s eyes. The Third Place podcast helps with the disconnect. This looks like less conflict and tension and more like a peaceful existence with others. The Third Place podcast restores the art of dialogue.
