How can you build the family you desire and still maintain a successful career? Where can you get the support you deserve on your family-building journey? 

Jessica Bell van der Wal and her husband faced an uphill battle on their journey to growing their family. As they navigated limited options and hurdles, they discovered that there was so much about the process they didn't know. There's the issues of fertility, ovulation, and even career that's rarely taught or discussed.
