Finding your people

Fertility journeys can feel isolating—especially when the people around you don’t understand the appointments, protocols, injections, scans, or the emotional rollercoaster of the two-week wait.In this episode, Lara explores why finding “your people” can make such a difference: those who have been through IVF or are trying to conceive themselves, and who can simply say, “Yes, I felt that too.” They’re the friends who understand without explanations, offer reassurance after a difficult appointment, and know exactly what it’s like to be in the trenches.Discover practical ways to build your support network, from Facebook groups and Reddit communities to conversations in clinic waiting rooms and taking the brave step of swapping numbers with someone you connect with. These friendships don’t have to last forever to be meaningful—they can support you for exactly the season you need them.If you’re feeling alone on your fertility journey, this episode is your reminder to reach out, put yourself out there, and find someone who truly gets it.For more support, check out my ⁠Monthly Fertility Snail Mail letter subscription ⁠
