090. The conversation focuses on the deeply personal and often difficult topic of navigating pregnancy after loss in your 40s. The episode features returning guests Jamey and Jenna, who join the round table to share their vulnerable stories of resilience and hope. Jamey opens up about her ten-year IVF journey, which included multiple miscarriages before she successfully conceived via embryo adoption at age 41. Jenna discusses her own path to motherhood, which involved four losses before she welcomed her fifth daughter at the age of 43.

The goal of this round table is to normalize the reality of pregnancy loss for women over 40 and to ensure that no one feels alone in their journey. By sharing these raw experiences, the guests offer a supportive space for listeners who are navigating the "mental scramble" of balancing hope with the anxiety that frequently follows a loss. This episode serves as a powerful reminder of the strength required to persevere through fertility challenges and provides community for those still "in the thick of it" while pursuing their dreams of motherhood later in life.
