Her passion for all things fertility stems from her almost five-year journey of trying to conceive. When starting this journey back in 2018, she found herself incredibly confused, alone and scared. She had no idea what to expect and didn't know anyone that had or was experiencing what I was going through.

However, by connecting with a community and finding support from a Fertility Support Practitioner - she discovered her true passion for supporting and helping others on this challenging path. She genuinely believes that no one has to do this alone!
