Getting pregnant, being pregnant and giving birth can be challenging in a myriad of different ways. But for some people, this massive transformation is….fairly straightforward. I totally enjoy talking to people who had a relatively smooth experience because it proves that the ideas many of us come to pregnancy with are not mythic, they do in fact live in the world ...And sometimes these lucky souls who tread the untroubled path are intent on sharing their superpower through surrogacy. Today’s guest had an interest in fertility as a young adult, and this interest led her into nursing and midwifery. After the birth of her own child, she gave one of the greatest gifts anyone can give: she helped a couple who, for various reasons, couldn’t carry their own pregnancy, by becoming their surrogate.  It’s a beautiful and totally inspiring story.
