Running a business while trying to conceive is one of the hardest things I’ve ever done – and I know I’m not alone.

In this episode of Diary Of The Search Queen, Ellie Swift joins me to talk about the messy, beautiful, brutal truth of building a business during fertility treatments.

Because when you’re running a 7-figure business with a full roster of clients, you don’t get to hit pause. You keep holding space for others – even when you’re at rock bottom emotionally.

But this is exactly why Ellie believes her fertility journey made her a stronger, more intuitive business owner.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • What it means to live a “double life” when you run a business and personal brand while privately struggling
  • How she structured her business to thrive in early motherhood
  • The moment she almost gave up – and what happened next
  • Why Ellie believes her fertility journey made her a better CEO and mentor

Whether you’re navigating your own fertility journey, showing up in business through grief, or just trying to hold it all together – this episode will remind you you’re not alone.
