12. Part 1/2: When You Need To Choose You In The Midst of Infertility: Depression, Mental Health and Healing with Dr. Vanessa Goodbar

12. Part 1/2: When You Need To Choose You In The Midst of Infertility: Depression, Mental Health and Healing with Dr. Vanessa Goodbar


In this 2 part episode with Dr. Vanessa Goodar, she graciously shared with us her point of view of why Maternal Health in America is an emergency as well as her own fertility journey. She also talked about the role race plays in fertility treatment.


It's clear that your experience with infertility has had a profound psychological impact on you. It's not uncommon for women to feel isolated and alone during this time, which is why it's important to seek out supportive communities. Places like Fertility for Colored Girls provide a safe space for women to share their stories and connect with others who can empathize with their struggles.


When it comes to advocating for yourself during pregnancy, it's important to strike a balance between listening to medical professionals and asserting your own needs. One way to do this is to educate yourself about your options and communicate your preferences clearly. Remember, you are the expert on your own body and should feel empowered to make informed decisions about your care.


If you've undergone a hysterectomy or struggled with infertility, it's important to remember that you are not alone. There are many resources available to help you navigate this challenging time, and it's okay to ask for help when you need it. Remember to be kind to yourself and prioritize your own well-being throughout your journey.
