Choosing Chaos: Solo Motherhood by Choice

Choosing Chaos: Solo Motherhood by Choice — the podcast for women who are done waiting for “the one” and ready to become a parent on their own damn terms. We’re talking fertility, pregnancy, the emotional chaos, and the village it takes to raise a kid.

Sometimes you cry in the bathtub. Sometimes you're crying because your toddler bit you. And sometimes, you cry because you chose all of this.

Unfiltered conversations about solo motherhood—because doing it alone doesn't mean doing it quietly.

Nathalie thought she was living the life she was supposed to want—married, settled, and planning for motherhood. But a life-changing moment at an OB appointment shifted everything.

What followed was a journey of healing, self-discovery, and redefining what truly felt aligned. Nathalie made the difficult choice to leave behind what no longer served her, explored new paths, and ultimately chose to pursue motherhood on her own terms through surrogacy.

This episode explores the courage it takes to question the path you’re on—and the strength it takes to choose a different one.
