    WOVXN Fertility: A Letter From Rebecca

    In this episode of WOVXN Fertility, Rebecca shares a letter written 10 years ago announcing her pregnancy to her patients. She opens up about navigating her own experience with fertility while caring for women on similar journeys. She speaks honestly about the joy, grief, frustration, and complexity that comes with the fertility experience and of supporting others through something she was living herself. At Interwovxn, we believe no one should have to move through these experiences feeling alone. We’re here to create connection and community around the moments in our health and lives that can often leave us feeling isolated.  To learn more about Rebecca: Interwovxn IG This podcast is part of a short-form series, each one focused on a different season of women's health: menstrual health, fertility, motherhood, breast health, perimenopause, and menopause.

    WOVXN Motherhood: Compassion Fatigue

    In today's WOVXN Motherhood, Theresa talks about compassion fatigue. Doing compassionate work and caregiving, mothering, showing up for her husband, and being there for friends, there were a lot of people she cared about and a lot of needs around her. She started to notice something in herself; a coiling, a want to withdraw, an inability to disconnect and prioritize herself. At Interwovxn we are sharing stories to normalize, educate, and build community around our experiences so we feel less alone and more empowered.  For more about Theresa: Interwovxn IG  At Interwovxn, we believe women’s health should never feel rushed, overlooked, or one-size-fits-all.
