63. The pressures of a biological clock - Navigating the decision to have kids, freeze eggs and balance expectations

This episode is all about babies!

Do I want them? Should I want them, what does it mean if I don't? 

After finding out I have a low AMH level (egg count) my partner and I have been having these conversations and have decided to do an egg and embryo freeze cycle.  

In this episode I chat: 

• The tough reality for women that we do in fact have a biological clock that we need to consider 
• How we made the decision to freeze eggs 
• What scientific and biological factors swayed my decisions 
• I share openly how I wasn't sure if I wanted kids and my fear of judgement from myself and society 
• What my competing (and conflicting) goals are right now 
• The pressures I put on myself in this process 
• What the process of freezing eggs has been like, including the costs, the process and how I am personally feeling
• How I changed my diet and training to honor my body in this process
