I found my way to family-building because...
I had multiple friends in my life that were going through the family building process. I saw first hand the layers of emotions present for individuals going through this process and I wanted to provide support to people in similar situations.
Your journeys have taught me that...
People with very different backgrounds, cultures, beliefs, and experiences can build meaningful relationships and connections that are life changing.
I keep hope alive by...
Surrounding myself with positive and supportive people. I try to practice gratitude on a daily basis by finding one thing each day that I am grateful for.
A moment that never gets old for me is...
Hearing a gestational carrier talk about the joy they experienced when they saw the intended parents meet their baby. Gestational carriers light up when discussing this moment and I can tell it provides them with a sense of happiness they had never experienced before.
My really good day looks like…
Spending time outside with people I love and cooking one of my favorite meals.
