041. What do you do when a medical professional tells you that your time has run out? In this episode, we sit down with a mother who was told she was "too old" to conceive, only to go on and welcome two babies into her life. Her story is a deep dive into the resilience required to block out the noise of negative statistics and trust in the possibility of your own body and the paths available to you. She shares the raw emotions of facing medical dismissal and the sheer joy of proving the "experts" wrong—not once, but twice.
Beyond the medical hurdles, we explore the mindset shifts that made her success possible. From navigating the specific challenges of late-40s pregnancy to the unique energy required to parent toddlers in a later season of life, this conversation is a masterclass in perseverance. Whether you’ve been discouraged by a doctor or are simply looking for proof that "too late" is often just a matter of opinion, this episode offers the hope and evidence you need to keep moving forward.
