Ep. 191: Infertility is More Than a Medical Term, with Paula

Infertility is more than a medical symptom; it affects every aspect of your life. For Paula Gallagher, it impacted her sense of self, her conception of God, her vision for her future, and her idea of family. A decade later, her struggle has become her ministry as she walks alongside women in the midst of infertility. This episode touches on her own story and the aspects of struggling to conceive that are often the hardest. But it doesn't end without hope. She shares the peace that God provided when it made no sense, and how that peace sustains her today.NOTE: In this episode, Paula shares honestly about her story and the pain of infertility. Miscarriage is mentioned.GUEST BIO: Paula Gallagher is an infertility coach, who is passionate about accompanying women on the path of infertility.
