    Dead Inside but Full of Life: Riki Lindhome on IVF, Surrogacy & Turning Pain into Art

    In this unforgettable episode of Friends with Fertility, we welcome actress, comedian, and musician Riki Lindhome—best known from Garfunkel & Oates, Another Period, Netflix’s Wednesday, and films like Knives Out. While audiences know her for her quick wit and comedic genius, Riki opens up about a much more personal story: her long and complicated road to motherhood. After years of IVF, heartbreaking losses, and a failed adoption, Riki ultimately welcomed her son through gestational surrogacy. But she didn’t stop there—she transformed her journey into Dead Inside, a one-woman musical that is equal parts raw, funny, and cathartic. In our conversation, Riki shares how creativity became her coping mechanism, why advocacy for women’s health matters now more than ever, and the importance of recognizing that there are many valid, beautiful paths to parenthood. This episode is full of honesty, humor, and hope—a reminder that even in the hardest moments, art, community, and resilience can carry us forward.   Find Rikki: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rikilindhome/  Find Elizabeth: Instagram: @theoffcialelizabethking TikTok: @elizabethkingofficial https://www.elizabethking.com/    Thank you for listening to this episode of the Friends With Fertility Podcast.
