Guest Appearance on Finding Hope After Loss: Hope In Infertility and Pregnancy Loss

Guest Appearance on Finding Hope After Loss: Hope In Infertility and Pregnancy Loss

A recent appearance on the podcast Finding Hope After Loss: Hope In Infertility and Pregnancy Loss.

This conversation offers honesty, hope, and perspective for anyone facing infertility, miscarriage, or considering foster-to-adopt as part of their family-building journey.

We cover my journey through unexplained infertility, pregnancy loss, failed IVF, and an unexpected ectopic pregnancy that required emergency surgery -- into finding hope through foster care and ultimately adopting two children.
