UW: Ep 15 -CONQUERING INFERTILITY

  • Summary

  • According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Survey of Family Growth, 1 in 8 couples reported having trouble getting pregnant or sustaining a pregnancy between 2004 and 2010. 

    Worldwide it’s estimated that 48.5 million couples are impacted by infertility.

    That’s a lot.  

    Yet so many women are suffering alone in silence because if/when someone happens to bravely share they’re struggling with infertility, many find others aren’t as supportive or understanding as they hoped.

    The truth is...many of us don’t know what to say or do because the infertility struggle is one that’s not yet commonly understood. 

    I want to change that pattern.

    I don’t want women who are going through infertility to feel alone and misunderstood anymore. 

    I also don’t want anyone to feel at a loss of words when someone shares with them they’re going through fertility treatments in order to conceive.

    I want us all to feel like we’re conquering infertility together.

    So, when I noticed a friend of mine, Kristin Dillensnyder started sharing her infertility journey on social media and then became an infertility coach, I took notice.

    She was teaching me a lot about what the infertility journey looked like and I was in awe. 

    Although, I only heard bits and pieces of her story and how she was helping her clients through the infertility process, I knew I had to have her on the podcast.

    I wanted to shine a light on what the infertility journey looks like so we ALL can become better humans together regardless if we’re going through infertility or not. 

    Of course, if you happen to be someone who is actively trying to conceive and experiencing infertility, this episode is for you too as this interview will allow you to understand things about your journey you may have never realized is going on.

    Specifically, in this interview Kristin and I cover...

    -Kristin’s infertility journey including what support she didn’t receive and how that lack of support inspired her to become an infertility coach 

    -An overview of what the infertility process looks like for many people 

    -The biggest struggles of those going through infertility 

    -How relationships can change due to someone experiencing infertility 

    -The best things to say (and not say) to someone who’s going through infertility 

    -How to support those going through infertility

    This interview opened my heart in so many ways.  I hope it does for you too.
