“John and I were having trouble. We would have kids five, six years ago if it had happened, but my gosh, it’s been a process! We’ve seen fertility doctors and then once you open up about all those things to other people, you start learning that a lot of other people in your life are seeing these people and they have this shame about it.”
"There are people out there who are struggling and I’m struggling, and it’s okay to come to terms with that being okay, to realize that it’s gonna be a bit of a journey."

And I absolutely knew I needed to share this story."
