Food and Lifestyle to Fertility: Ashley’s Egg Freezing Journey

Ashley Chukwu is a 30-year-old food and wine blogger in Atlanta, living her life without the prospect of building a family soon. So, when her mom suggested she consider freezing her eggs, Ashley decided to do some research. At the time, she knew little about the process or whether her insurance would cover it. That’s when she discovered her employer offered fertility preservation through Progyny. 

In this episode, Ashley shares her journey—from researching the process and navigating her benefits to handling injections and undergoing the procedure. She discusses challenges along the way, the importance of representation, and reflects on the peace of mind she’s gained from taking control of her fertility. 

Tune in to hear Ashley’s experience and learn how support from her company helped her make a decision that aligns with her goals and lifestyle.
