In this episode, I chat with Lana Manikowski, a certified life coach, infertility advocate, and author of So Now What?.
Lana shares her personal journey and how she found purpose beyond motherhood. We discuss the emotional challenges of infertility, the importance of acknowledging grief, and the need for open conversations around pregnancy loss.
Whether you're navigating your own fertility journey or supporting someone who is, I hope this episode offers comfort and insight.
