This is a very special episode because it is with my cousin, Abby Ricciardi. Growing up our families were super close. Abby and I went to daycare together and basically grew up together. However, our motherhood journey's have looked very different. Before we sat down for this in-person interview, we realized that it had been over three and a half years since we had seen each other in person.
In today’s conversation you’ll hear us catch up on what life has been like for Abby over the past almost four years including her moving all over the place and eventually settling down where she is at now; Israel. Abby shares what it was like to find out two of her wildest dreams were coming true simultaneously; she was both pregnant and moving to the city of her dreams.
However, Abby’s journey to becoming pregnant wasn’t what she had envisioned. She shares what it was like to go through infertility, what her postpartum journey looked like, and even gets vulnerable about the challenges of motherhood when you don’t have family nearby.
And be sure to stay tuned for next week’s episode which will be part two of my conversation with Abby. We will dive more deeply into what her lifestyle currently looks like raising a toddler in a foreign country.
