When women seeking to create family after years of heartbreak, grief and disappointment find themselves facing the loss of their own eggs and genetics and new challenges navigating the donor egg pathway she helps to fast track their knowledge with mind body connection strategies and a healing pathway.

Her mission is to share real stories from real women navigating family creation via egg donation.
She advocates and educates for families to have full transparency about their child’s conception story.
My wish is for these brave and courageous families to feel a sense of celebration and eradicate shame and secrecy and the stigma around donor egg third party reproduction.
Supporting families with the emotional part of this journey not only helps the parents but in turn helps our future children conceived via egg donation to feel proud of how much their parents wanted them and to celebrate their conception story.
