Infertility Series, EP-5: Amber, Leslie & Emilee on Infertility, Identity, and Letting Go of Control

Send us a text

In this episode of our Infertility Series, we’re going deep into the unfiltered, emotional, and often messy reality of trying to get pregnant.

🧡 Amber shares how losing control in her life led to extreme exercise and disordered eating — and how she had to rebuild trust with the body she spent years punishing.
🧡 Leslie takes us back 20 years to when she went through infertility before having her two boys. And at the time “just relax” was the most unhelpful (and most common) advice she heard.
🧡 Emilee opens up about being pregnant after IVF… and how anxiety and fear still follow her, even in a season of joy.

This episode is about way more than test results and treatment plans — it’s about the mental and emotional toll that infertility takes. It’s about intimacy, self-worth, jealousy, shame… and the strength it takes to keep going anyway.

Whether you’re in the thick of it, supporting someone who is, or just trying to understand this journey better — this one will stay with you.

🎧 Listen now — and if it moves you, send it to someone who needs to know they’re not alone.
