BONUS EPISODE: Entreprenistas IN Fertility- Navigating Infertility during the holidays

“This is no small thing. It’s okay to not be okay. Talk to your team about it.”

Hey, everyone, it’s Stephanie here! Whether you’re simply family planning, or you’re experiencing infertility challenges, something that I learned firsthand through my battle with infertility, is how important it is to have the knowledge and information needed to make informed decisions, and have access to the best resources. I know that going through Infertility can be extremely lonely and also full of anxiety. In retrospect, I can see how running a business definitely prepared me for my journey with infertility as I had to learn how to speak up, how to research, and I did not take no for an answer. I kept going until I found the answers that I so needed and these were skills that I’ve used over the past decade building businesses. So for this bonus episode of Entreprenista, I wanted to support anyone worried about or actively experiencing infertility to affirm that you are not alone in this and provide you with information that I wish I had when first deciding to build my family. I am joined by two fellow Entreprenistas, Abbe Feder and Jamie Kushner Blicher,  who have both built businesses that are helping people going through infertility but in different yet miraculous ways. Hear how they have turned the pain of their own infertility journey into purpose using art and coaching.  I also bring on a leading fertility expert at CCRM Miami, Dr. Potts, as he lends his expertise, to demystify the misconceptions surrounding infertility. He illuminates the factors affecting fertility health and the revolutionary solutions available today.  From resources to hope, from personal experiences to medical insights, we’ve got it all covered. Dive in to get enlightened, feel supported, and take control of your fertility narrative. Whether you’re an entrepreneur or someone seeking clarity on this journey, this episode offers a compassionate compass, pointing the way forward!
