She appreciates living in Massachusetts, where mandatory insurance coverage allowed her to undergo IVF treatments. However, she expresses concerns about potential changes to these laws due to the current political climate, noting that some states already have restrictions. Julia emphasizes the need to cherish our freedoms to build families in ways that feel right to us. She also reflectes on the diverse stories shared on the Stork'd podcast—some heartbreaking, others showcasing resilience and determination as individuals navigated various options to build their families.

    S6 Ep. 19 - Leaning on Levity To Break the Grief: 6 Years of Unexplained Infertility With Abbe Feder, InCircle Fertility

    Abbe Feder is the founder of InCircle Fertility and host of the Fertility Chic.  In this episode, Abbe shares her own six-year journey through unexplained infertility, including her initial reluctance to turn to assisted reproductive technology. Ultimately, Abbe and her husband tried IUI and then IVF with multiple failed transfers and loss. After a traumatic birth experience and emergency hysterectomy, Abbe is the proud mom of twins.  Abbe leans on her experience and a deep well of empathy and tools to guide hopeful parents through the infertility experience. InCircle Fertility is not just a service; it's a guiding light for anyone navigating the complex path to parenthood.   Abbe’s belief in coaching clients through this challenging process is unwavering; she holds their hearts and hands as they navigate the emotional and physical hurdles of family building. If you or someone you know resonates with this journey, join us for an insightful conversation."    IN THIS EPISODE:  [2:49] Abbe discusses why she created her company, Circle Fertility  [4:00] Abbe reflects on her 6-year journey to becoming a parent  [10:43] Abbe decides to go to a fertility doctor for IUI treatments  [14:59] Abbe admits she believed that when starting IVF treatments, you would immediately get pregnant. She explains how she dealt with the disappointment  [20:47] How do you protect your mental health through disappointments? Abbe discusses details of the IUI and IVF journey  [31:20] Abbe advises on how to navigate the complex decisions of the process, and she discusses the expense versus self-care  [38:42] When should a person seek coaching, and how does Abbe define family    KEY TAKEAWAYS:  It is unfair that a woman who did not take care of her body can quickly get pregnant, and a woman who took excellent care of her health and body can’t conceive.   It is difficult to make life decisions when going through IVF. Your hormones are raging, you are taking more, the stakes are high, and you are exhausted. That is the time when you need to be able to lean into someone you trust.   Taking IUI or IVF treatments is no guarantee that you will become pregnant.     RESOURCE LINKS:  Stork'd - Facebook  Stork'd - Instagram   Stork'd - YouTube   InCircle Fertility - Website  InCircle Fertility - Instagram  InCircle Fertility - LinkedIn    BIOGRAPHY: Abbe Feder   Abbe Feder founded InCircle Fertility after emerging on the other side of her all-consuming struggles with infertility and pregnancy loss.

    S6 Ep. 18 - Can’t I Be More Than Just “Mom”? - Retaining Identity in Parenthood with Brittany Ross, Comedian

    Brittany Ross, a Los Angeles-based actor and stand up comedian opens up with refreshing authenticity about her journey into motherhood. She candidly shares her experiences of feeling like she lost her identity during her first pregnancy, as others only saw her as a mom-to-be and, after giving birth, felt defined solely by motherhood. Now pregnant again, Brittany reflects on navigating this journey differently, realizing she can embrace her role as a caring mom and her identity as a professional and individual woman. Join us as Brittany shares her insights and experiences in this honest and relatable conversation.    IN THIS EPISODE:  [2:46] Brittany shares who she is and how she brings her family into her comedic act, and she describes the unpreferred parent and gives examples  [10:59] Brittany discusses how she felt about being a mom from her identity standpoint and how people treat you differently  [18:44] Brittany is dealing with her second pregnancy differently, and how she is navigating this process  [29:00] Brittany’s advice is to remember everyone is different and can exercise whatever emotion they are feeling, and she reveals she had a miscarriage before her current pregnancy  [35:08] What triggered Brittany to decide to have a second child was what she wanted   [40:39] Brittany reminds listeners that everyone has ideas about what is right for you, but do what you think is right and what family means to Brittany    KEY TAKEAWAYS:  Children possess an innate ability to push their parents' buttons, and the bond between a mother and daughter is distinct. At times, it's uniquely positive, while at other times, it is a button-pushing scenario.  Getting pregnant represents a significant life change, and it is ok to deal with it however you want to. Don’t be pressured by outside influences of how you should feel or cope.   As a mom, you love your child but don’t want to lose your identity.  Some of the feelings you have are based on hormones.    RESOURCE LINKS:  Stork'd - Facebook  Stork'd - Instagram   Stork'd - YouTube   Brittany Ross - Instagram  Brittany Ross - Website    BIOGRAPHY: Brittany Ross    Brittany Ross is a Los Angeles-based Actor, Standup Comic, and writer. Originally from… well, she grew up moving around the world: Alaska, Scotland, Colombia, Venezuela, Texas, Chicago, & Hawaii. Being the “New Kid” is her special skill.

Other notable credits include her long-running recurring role on ABCs The Middle, CBS’s 2 Broke Girls, TBS’s Clipped, Disney’s Bizaardvark & more.
