The Georgian Surrogacy Podcast

The Georgian Surrogacy Podcast

The Georgian Surrogacy Podcast was initially created by two Australian Mum’s who navigated the complicated world of doing surrogacy in Tbilisi, Georgia. Created to offer information, support, and their own experiences; the podcast covers different stages, options, tips, information and processes to navigate through the world of international surrogacy in the wonderful country of Georgia. Hosted by Liz Tripodi, a multi award winning Arts, Music and Business Leader of 30 years who had been on the road to parenting for 13 years before the safe arrival of twin girls in 2020 in Georgia. Liz joined the team at Chachava Clinic in Georgia as an International Coordinator in 2024.
