Lana Manikowski is someone the NCMP feels honored to call friend. She joined us to discuss her journey to fulfillment after infertility. Lana, a self described Type A human, thought she could work hard to make her goals happen. Including parenthood. When it was clear it wasn't part of her story, she set that determination into finding a fulfilling life post IVF. Years later, she's turned her passion into a coaching business that allows her to help other women find that same fulfillment through 1:1 and group coaching. She even received national recognition for her Other's Day Brunch. WOW! Talk about an impact! We love you and are blessed to have connected with you Lana! Love hearing Lana's thoughts? Give her podcast, The "So Now What?" Podcast, a listen! Available on all platforms.
