Eloise Drane has been a 6-time egg donor and 3-time surrogate, but her greatest legacy might be how she’s reshaping the fertility industry itself. In this powerful episode of BACKtalk, host Janice Robinson-Celeste speaks with Eloise about founding Family Inceptions, the first Black woman-owned fertility agency in the U.S., and how she’s breaking down barriers for intended parents, surrogates, and egg donors, especially Black women. From discrimination in fertility clinics to the emotional and physical realities of surrogacy, Eloise gets real about what it takes to build a family and why inclusion matters.
