    #69 Nicole Baumann - Failed transfer, no surrogate and starting from scratch again.

    Todays episode is proudly brought to you by Upstate Studios! Use code MISSTA at checkout to receive an unlimited 30 day pass for only $29!  Click here to redeem your offer! In this heartfelt and sensitive episode, Nicole Baumann shares her journey following another failed surrogacy transfer, and the painful breakdown of her surrogacy relationship. With deep respect and gratitude for her surrogate, Nicole retells this chapter of her story with honesty and care. This episode explores themes of surrogacy, fertility struggles, relationship challenges, and loss, and it reflects Nicole’s personal version of events. Nicole shares this now because the experience has been too painful to constantly retell each time someone asks, and she is finally ready to put her truth into words. Please be mindful when listening, as this conversation touches on sensitive and emotional topics for both parties. Please note that Kiera has given her consent for this episode to air. Again - it is important to remember that is is Nicky's version of events only and a retell of how she felt through the process. We have deep respect for Kiera and what she offered to Nicole.

Demi shares how she’s been feeling completely overwhelmed (can anyone relate?), and Mel opens up about her emotions after hearing from her daughters prep teacher that Penelope was “behind” in reading!
