Interview with Jody of Childless and Confident
by Ali Prato, Creator and Host of Infertile AF Podcast
& Co-Founder, Fertility Rally
About the Podcast
In her unfiltered podcast about infertility and building modern families, Brooklyn-based journalist and mom-of-two Ali Prato, who went through secondary infertility and IVF, talks to women—and some men—about the messy, frustrating, painful, heartbreaking, absurd and sometimes hilarious journey to have a baby. Or in some cases, to not have a baby. Each episode tells a different story, getting real about miscarriages, egg freezing, sperm donors, adoption, depression, secondary infertility, surrogacy, endometriosis, IUIs, acupuncture, addiction, relationship drama, genetic testing, money issues, that crazy jealousy you feel when you see someone else with a baby bump, and so much more. She covers the happy endings, the soul-crushingly sad ones, and the ones still in limbo.

Avoiding Victimhood After Infertility
by Jesse and Doug Brown from Uniquely Knitted
& The Infertility Feelings Podcast
About the Podcast
Jesse and Doug have suffered from infertility without success for the past decade. Throughout their struggle of infertility they have been overwhelmed with a tidal wave of uncontrollable feelings. In 2019 they founded Uniquely Knitted, a non profit organization aimed at serving all who struggle with the emotions of infertility. In this podcast they are breaking down all the things we feel during the struggle to grow our families. Understanding the psychology of the feelings that come up during infertility from licensed therapists. Hearing first hand from those who have gone through infertility. Helping everyone struggling, and those who care for someone struggling know what it FEELS like to go through infertility.
About the Episode
Living a childless life after the struggle of infertility can create an attitude of victimhood. It IS true that we are victims of infertility, no one invited these struggles into their life. However, we must move on from victim to victor in our lives, to truly find ownership and freedom. In this episode of The Infertility Feelings Podcast we are talking about the delicate transformation from living a life overtaken by feelings of victimhood to a life of someone taking full ownership of their childless life.

How would your life be different if you noticed how much more amazing you are, because of everything you’ve been through? This podcast highlights the research and gives you specific tools so you can turn family building trauma on its head. This is not a podcast about thinking positive all the time or finding silver linings – it’s about staring hard stuff right in the face and inviting it in for a chat.
