017. Can a "snowball's chance in hell" actually turn into a miracle? In this episode, Jennifer, a high-powered CEO from Nashville, who was met with total medical skepticism when she began her fertility journey. Despite being told by a specialist that her chances of conceiving were practically non-existent, Jennifer applied the same tenacity she uses to lead her company to her own health. We dive into her strategic approach to IVF at 43, including how she navigated two egg retrievals, managed the high-stakes pressure of embryo testing, and stayed focused on her goal while simultaneously grieving the loss of her father.
Jennifer shares the specific "CEO mindset" she used to advocate for herself when the medical system tried to count her out. From the technical details of her successful transfer to the holistic roles that meditation and acupuncture played in her protocol, this conversation is a masterclass in resilience and self-belief. Whether you are navigating advanced maternal age, facing a discouraging diagnosis, or curious about the intersection of leadership and motherhood, Jennifer’s story—which culminated in the birth of her beautiful daughter—is the ultimate proof that the "impossible" is often just a starting point.
