22 Aug Fertility, twin pregnancy, premature babies, & being a mum in business
In this deeply personal episode, I’m opening up about my fertility journey, my unexpected twin pregnancy, and the reality of balancing motherhood with running a business. From being told I was in the bottom 3% for fertility, to considering egg freezing, to conceiving twins naturally — this is a story I never imagined I’d be sharing.
I walk you through the highs and lows of pregnancy, from morning sickness and influenza to an emergency C-section that brought my girls into the world earlier than planned. I also share what it’s been like raising premature twins, the challenges of sleepless nights, and the joy of watching them grow and develop. Most of all, this episode is about resilience, support, and embracing the season you’re in — even when it looks nothing like you expected.
We cover:
– My fertility concerns and how I conceived twins naturally
– The realities of pregnancy with twins (morning sickness, complications, and unexpected surprises)
– What happened during my emergency C-section
– Raising premature twins and navigating feeding challenges
– How I balance motherhood and business (and what I’ve learned the hard way)
– Why support systems matter more than ever
