Fertility is rarely simple. For many, it’s a journey that calls for time, patience, and the courage to adjust course—whether that means changing clinics, rethinking treatment options, or finding new sources of hope.

In this episode of Choosing Chaos, we sit down with Lindsay, who was told at just 33 years old that motherhood might not be possible. Years later, after navigating heartbreak, loss, countless rounds of treatment, and the rollercoaster of hope and disappointment, her persistence led to life-changing news.

A gentle note: This episode includes sensitive conversation around pregnancy loss.

Lindsay’s story is a powerful reminder of self-compassion, and the truth that while the fertility journey is often invisible to others, it deserves our empathy, respect, and love.
