From Toilet Panic to 3AM Peace: One Woman's Journey Through IBD, Fertility, and Finding Hope in the DarkNow, this is a story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down... but it's not the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. It's the raw, unfiltered truth about trying to become a mother at 40+ while battling IBD, premature ovarian failure, and a medical system that wasn't designed for women like me.This is where I share what really happens when your bowels, your fertility, and your dreams collide. From panic attacks in public toilets to navigating donor eggs, from being dismissed as "too old" to holding my miracle baby at 3am - this is my story, filter-free.What you'll hear:Honest conversations about IBD and fertility (including the farting - because fart loud, fart proud!)What fertility clinics don't tell you about reproductive healthThe emotional reality of premature ovarian failure and donor eggsMedical advocacy and learning to trust yourself over "experts"Hope, tears, and finding peace when everything feels hopelessGuest stories from others on similar journeysThis podcast is for: Women struggling with fertility who feel alone despite being surrounded by support. Anyone navigating chronic illness while trying to conceive. People facing age-related prejudice in their fertility journey.

Just real stories from the messy middle, the parts nobody talks about but everyone experiences.This isn't medical advice. I'm not a doctor. I'm just someone who's been through it and wants you to know you're not alone in the dark.New episodes: WeeklyYour voice deserves to be heard. Always.
